You are for the most part right, labour cost are near the same across locations with same topography. For me, I have an eye on the overall cost of the investment against the rental income and affordability/availability of my target audience. So, before I invest in an area I research the going rent structure of the area and the availability of my target audience who can pay the rent without issues. For example, if a three bedroom is going for two million p.a, I know already my target renters can't afford that. Instead of doing the popular four flats of three bedroom in that area, I will do for example Ten Flats of One Bedroom for the same investment amount. I will get more return on investment.
One thing I’ve observed from recent projects is that design strategy affects yield more than people realize.

For example, in a design we did for a member of this thread, instead of doing a conventional 3bedrooms 4 flats on a plot, we explored a compact development of 4 units of mini flats plus a 2-bedroom unit on a standard plot. The idea was to:
1)Target young professionals and small households

2)Spread risk across multiple tenants

3) Increase cashflow frequency instead of relying on one or two big rents

4)Keep structural form simple to control cost by implementing mono pitch roofing style

The real issue in my opinion is not just cost of building, but:
1: Product-market mismatch
2: Overbuilding relative to location
3: Inefficient planning that increases structural and finishing cost unnecessarily

In areas where land cost is high, yield must be solved at design stage, not after construction.

Just sharing a perspective from the design side.

We recently created this short animation for our 3-bedroom bungalow concept.
What we tried to do differently is show how the same space feels across moods: transitioning from a bright day → golden evening → cozy night → then a peaceful rainy Evening.

Hello. I am looking to renovate a building I just bought, located in Ajah and I am looking for a builder/engineer. The building is very dilapidated and old fashioned. I will like to upgrade it to a modern look. Also there's an issue of water logging in the living room when it rains. I willneed to do some kind of elevation and build a working drainage/gutters.

This property is a 5 bedroom duplex with another three bedroom bungalow behind the main building.

Please suggest a professional with good reputation and fair pricing. It would be greatly appreciated. I am looking to move quickly on this project.

Thank you.
This is quite common with older buildings around Ajah. Before raising the floor level, it’s important to check the natural site slope and where the water currently travels—so you don’t elevate the building only to redirect the water into the bungalow behind.

A proper drainage redesign usually works hand-in-hand with the renovation.

I handle upgrades/renovations within this axis, so if you want, I can take a look and give you a clear idea of the safest approach
