edshaf:
Oh... Yes, per bag. Thanks

edshaf:
That's correct. It includes the cost of stacking as well.

Do you think it is too expensive? I need feedbacks like this to ease future bargaining.

I couldn't say exactly but I had to pay about #1.7 million for 648 sq. mtr (that's about #2,500 per sq.mtrs plus other charges).

The team of field agents that came took pictures and wrote reports of what was on ground. How that affected the charges, I don't know.

I received a CofO for 99 years at the end anyways.

edshaf:
I am not an authority in the process but I will share my understanding.

Land under government acquisition that has been granted consent to regularize would normally have such consent number on the survey plan with a stamp of the land status.
With your survey plan, you can obtain the land information (#10,000 for 1 plot) from the surveyor general's office. Only survey plan will red copy lodged in the Surveyor General's office can have the land information.
With that and the completed application form (#5,000) obtained from Lagos State Ministry of Lands and Housing, you submit your application for land regularization to the directorate of land regularization.

Anyways, in your case, all you need is to verify by conducting Land Information to start with. Be wary, estate or not!

edshaf:
Yes. The normal trend in Lagos is to commence building before paper work (if at all). With Lagos drive for revenue generation, several penalties are now levied if you build without building approval (and get caught).
Sadly, you cannot get building approval without a title on the land.
Since the location is under government acquisition with consent to regularize, the Regularization process takes about 6 months to complete. But one can still get building plan approved with the letter of regularization, which takes about 3 month or less to be ready.

Ibnjurayj:
Sorry Brother, it's actually saying something like "Folmus has been trying to send you message but since you aren't connected" I didn't get your message though. Alternatively, you can mail me on: ibnjurayj83@gmail.com

Ibnjurayj:
Sorry brother which estate "fall within Govt acquisition" Gosgra Neighbourhood Estate phase 1 @ Agbowa?

folmus:
Whenever these estate guys approach us, they come with their global survey plans showing ''Free from Government Acquisition''. They will boast of taking the survey plan to Alausa to check its authenticity. However, a personal survey often shows 'Fall within Government Acquisition'. What differentiate this from '' Committed Land''?


My question now is: Is there a land that is truly free from government acquisition?


Surveyors, Lawyers, experts in the house, your opinions are highly appreciated.

Hello E-Family,

Is being a while. Hope you are good? Last December i asked about the recommended size for a septic tank/soak away for a 3bedroom, bungalow with a master. I did appreciate the responses i got. The soak is 80% completed.

However, am here because am about roofing the house and am considering my options. This is really low cost as my pocket aint heavy. My roofer advised i can use the minimum gauge in aluminium, that is better than use the short aluminuim called cameroon zinc.

I have made enquiries and found out that 0.30 is around 950 per sqm. PLEASE, IS THIS A GOOD OPTION? IS THERE ANY DISADVANTAGE IN USING IT TO ROOF?

The bungalow is quite high. the foundation is 5 course and the main building is the finishing block is 3 course after lintel. The location is Ibagwa Nike Enugu and is dry land.
PLEASE I NEED YOUR OPINION.

The cameroon zinc (short aluminum zinc that is 15 a bundle) and the long span 0.30 which is better?

THANKS. EXPECTING YOUR SUGGESTIONS. THANKS

Ibnjurayj:
Good afternoon, the survey plan has been issued since last month but haven't collected it yet as we aren't based in Nigeria but my father is collecting it on our behalf. It is fully registered but Allaah knows best though.

Ibnjurayj:
Sorry for the experience you had with them, I and my wife bought 2 plots of Land through them (phase 1 @ ikorodu) and we managed to get allocation last December although we are still waiting for our survey plan [dont know why it's taking ages] according to my research they aren't fraudulent and I will be comfortably do business with them in the future. They aren't yeye company unlike these bogus estate developers encroaching on illegal govt lands.

Jamesbiodun:
the floor plan is not good, op kindly redesign, ur sitting room kitchen and dinning, it's very bad....
I have calculated the cost for foundation,
Digging foundation: 40000
1120 block for foundation : 134400
cement: 48000
bricklayers and labour : 40000
Total : 262,400...

but d price can go down in ur area, here in idiroko cement is 2400 and u r going to use 20 bags of cement, block is 120 and u r going to use 1120 blocks, that's d estimate, it can't pass d price I give u, am a site engineer and supervisor

Even the kitchen which was nicely done and would require some real work to transform to something Worthy. The Hardest part of the Kitchen process is that All the materials we taught we would use for the Kitchen is what they have currently used. So it will be stupid to think we would use thesame materials and expect a Different result. We have to be creative with other materials
