In my estate, a tenant cannot move in if the landlord is defaulting to the HOA. The tenant and his/her spouse will be interviewed by the estate management team before they can even pay the house rent. They’ll submit their CVs and an interview will be scheduled.

To pack out of the estate, the tenant need a clearance letter from their Landlord and to obtaining this means they’ve cleared all their outstanding dues.

That is why it's better to get a consultant to manage all the technical side of work.
One can still handle the negotiations but things like the archi, structural, M&E and a detail quantity have to be done by expert to give a clear cost and project time frame.

The way to go is to get a consultant that will do all the technical side of work.

Problem is that, some Contractor will give you a lower estimates to attract your business but when construction starts there will be many stories but it will be too late to stop your project. Due deligence is the advise.
Thank you.

my own is a dry land but do you think mine will be like hw much

Enyinne:
My land is waterlogged and i used upto 5m for foundation

To be honest, I think your Nigeria is kinda different.

I’ve been using automatic gate operator for almost 8 years now, the only maintenance I ever did was to change my battery.

Guess the amount. It’s just 7k!
My gatehouse is just a complete waste.

I use motion sensors too and automatic sprinklers. These things don’t just pack up. Even when they do, just go to Ogunpa market if you’re in Ibadan or Oshodi if you’re in Lagos, those guys can fix anything.

Hmm. I can only recommend my carpenter. You buy your wood. He’ll do the needful.

I don’t sell wood nor do I have anyone I can recommend. I just go to nearest wood market, look for good ones and buy them.

EgunMogaji2:
If you already have land and a building plan, have someone help you stake out your gate and septic tank then plant away.

You’ll move in with matured trees.

This is what I did at my micro estate. I have five trees that will mature for new residents to sit under and also eat from.

This might help some people in managing their contractors and artisans.

I designed this few years ago and it has really worked for me.

coldcandy:
Chambers!
My plumber and I are still fighting over chambers. I told him I don't want chambers but he cannot imagine a house without chambers. I designed the pipe network for him to implement but he is yet to do it. He said if there is blockage how will I locate it? I said i will break d whole pipe and replace it.
He is still pondering over it. I will soon fire him.

I detest interlock. Stained concrete is preferable.

MrOkenwa:
I hope that he’s able to cough out your money asap. His bank account might be empty but he may have some assets that can be trade off to retrieve your money.
I don’t know the legal interpretation of what he did but I believe that he can be handled better in the naija way and he go pay.
There are great and reliable building contractors and Site engineers on this forum. We equally have few bad ones like this one. Some are not capable of handling complex and technical jobs but they will use sugarcoated posts to lure clients and then mismanage the money given to them
Next time, pls do your search properly by asking questions about the character behind the username you intend to patronize. Some have rebranded, repackaged and have changed their usernames but old forum members sabi their way.
And finally, the mod should look into the activities of this scam artist called HsLBroker.
I wish you Good luck Sir.

EgunMogaji2:
You see this is why I’m having an onsite manager at my estate.

Imagine the effontry

What do you do when you want to relocate your pump from one side of the building to another side?
I’ve been looking for a way to achieve this without breaking the concrete or flying wires around.

On another occasion, I needed to connect water from the borehole to a new building within the same compound.

These and many more are the many challenges of stamped concrete.

The one you don’t pray to experience is leaky plumbing pipes.

qdlvy:
Hello all. Seeing the debate about interlocking and stamped concrete, I'm curious why most people don't go for landscaping and concrete for the walkway only. What are the advantages of common practices against landscaping and concrete? Water sprinklers are very cheap and DIY friendly. Looks like a no brainer to me but I'm sure I'm missing something.

Examples in the pictures below.

mufutau55:
There will be a lot of other areas water can saturate.
There are still some areas reserved for green grass and plants. So no biggie.

Ibibioson:
True, I'm fairly new here. But I wonder why he was allowed to continue to scam people using this forum.
Anyway, he was arrested yesterday. He admitted that he used my money to take care of his father's burial. There's nothing in his account now, per his bank statement we obtained. I'll make sure he coughs the money.

Chibexe:
Good morning seniors in the house.

I'm planning to liquidate my investment in mutual funds and use the funds to buy two cars for Taxify/Uber business. I plan giving those cars on high purchase with weekly returns from the drivers I also have plans of buying insurance for the two vehicles. Kindly advice me, those that have ventured into this line of business before or anybody with vital information that will help me.

Thanks.

Not sure if it's all that do that.

StrikeChief:
You this falklandsaga. I know you very well. You did not hide your identity well. Same with the Op. Anyway, I go die that matter.

I was sailing onboard the Ethiope Marine Patrol at the time that some of these stories happened. Abraka was a war zone then. We were the first set of people to start renoucement when the thing became too much. Na anti-cult end my story finally. I remember that Aye men kidnapped our VC then, Professor Igun, and took him to boys hostel in Ekpoma. . The guy oshoma was too much.

See no see, tell no tell. For the evil you see today, tomorrow you shall see them no more. S.S.


Maybe when I get time sha, I go come cap ruggedly about Ethiope Marine Patrol. Make Falkland finish story first. I wan observe something.

Tobex4realTobex234:
It's not a poverty thing. I used to think that way too until I worked in Kano for 2 years. I forgot my phone one time in a Keke Marwa and the driver brought it to my hotel. When I told my friends at work, they all testified to how many of those occasions they have witnessed severally.

I don't like bringing race to the matter. But what is very evident is that there are some particular ethnic groups in Nigeria that are most likely to be dishonest, cruel and possess a lot of theft tendencies. So let's stop pretending an average Nigerian doesn't have issues. It's not all poverty. North is the poorest region in the country, and by that half baked analogy, they shouldn't be honest.

TotoNaRubber:
There are so many trading commodities out there, find one that is safe and trade on daily basis, every week i invest hundreds of thousands Naira with a minimum of 25% profit on every investment, some investments make 4% but this one only sits to wait while the high yielding investment become available.

While davaluation is hurting some, more millionaires are being made

NL1960:
Depending on the area. 2 or 3 bedroom flats or better still self-contain(1 bedroom) apartments. I recently saw a storey building that was formerly face-i-face-you. Somebody bought it and converted it to a self contain (a room, a sitting room, kitchen, toilet and bathroom). All of them are occupied with young couples and working young bachelors. There is privacy for each person. The owner even created a space somewhere for generator compartment for each.

emmanuelewumi:
With your N5 million you will buy a plot of land at Ogolonto about 5 minutes walk to the BRT stand

Ogolonto is closer to Maryland, compared to the hinterland location of Ikorodu where this property is located.

We are in a buyers market.

And Ikorodu tenants can owe for Africa, you will end up selling the property.

emmanuelewumi:
The property is expensive.

Land in that part of Ikorodu is less than N5 million, the amount spent on the uncompleted building should be maximum of N3 million

I will need between N3 million to N5 million to complete the property and I doubt if I can generate a rental income of 500k per annum from that part of Ikorodu.
