I was just praying for God not to let anything happen to the guys on the scaffold on my build when it was put up, no safety and the thing bed and no anchor chei, I just was praying

I lost my main electrical boy Wahab to scaffold accident.

He went to work for a client who’s trying to cut corners to save time and money.

Construction risks is also something we seriously need to pay attention to. Accidents on sites can happen suddenly and unexpectedly, leading to injuries or death if there are no adequate risk protection.

your are missing the point, this is in the USA, so people who are on the middle class ie teachers and other civil servants in the USA can afford them houses, no Nigeria, if placed in the Nigerian context might have to be N15million or N20 million payable over 30 years

Ok understood sir, and sorry for misunderstanding you.

Hi Sirs and Mas,

Thank you for always helping me make the right decision. Your advice and suggestions have helped me a lot in my housing project.

I AM HERE AGAIN!

1. I need an advice of the right choice of doors. I like the interior doors I saw on Instagram sellers' pages (like Rahwood) but they are expensive for me. They sell around 70k to 100k per one. However, I don't know if I can get great doors (durable and beautiful) at the range of 30 to 50k per one. Even though I want affordable doors I still don't want to joke with aesthetic.

2. Can you recommend a great and affordable water closet product. Someone recommended sweet homes and it is 50k per one. Can I get something good and cheaper?

[color=#990000][/color]PLEASE I NEED A GENERAL ADVICE AND SUGGESTIONS ABOUT THE INTERIOR DOORS AND TOILET ACCESSORIES.

Thanks in advance!

Point of correction N20m will build you a 3 bedroom house I n Nigeria, its one unit not the whole block FYI as we speak there are still houses under £80k in the Uk as we speak. The mortgage comparison has nothing to do with Nigeria was just used as an illustration. Once again hand o n chest, I can tell you N20m will build you a house, the finishing might not be top-notch but it will I know this as I am an experimental builder as it is and my build is o ongoing bits by bits anytime I enter 9ja!
As for the mortgage, no one said 30 years in Nigeria rather 30 years in the US.You are talking about 30 years mortgage impossible in Nigeria, I recon you seem to forget how mortgages work.Even in the west, the vast majority of us do no pay up our mortgage, we just remortgage and harvest equity for a newer mortgage don't forget the bank can always take back their hows and re issue a new mortgage on such!so what have they got to lose?

I thought we were making comparisons with regards to a specific single family duplex in a picture that was posted here.. That was why I said #20M cannot build such in Nigeria.
I agree with the fact that #20M can build a 3 bedroom house in Nigeria.
We seem to be on the same page on the issue of talking profit before maturation date on 30 years mortgages. That is exactly my point. Considering that, on short term mortgages, as is the practice in Nigeria, homeowners do not have room to talk profit before maturation date, because there is not enoug time for that.
The banks have squeezed the short term profit out of it by offering short term maturation dates with high interest and premiums in Nigeria. Therefore in that short period nothing is left for the homeowner except his invested capital.
There is a reason for that being an undeveloped economy, mortgage insurance company ( not talking about premium insurance nor homeowners insurance) and underwriters for banks in Nigeria are not taking such risks and government regulations are not strong enough to mandate or check unethical lending practices in the industry. Simply put, legislators only go to house to share money without any idea of making the country work for the people.

Firstly, measure the said building yourself and get the sqm coz it's likely not going to be up to the 58 he quoted. That is where the ripping off starts.

They MUST increase the measurement and start cutting off your head from there. So shine your eyes.

Oga Nigeria economy is cash economy it has his ways of doing things. The do not depend on 30 years mortgage to reaped their shot time profit. Most developers with turns of cash smile to bank every day in Nigeria. It’s two deferent economy.

Because people sold the votes for rice and incompetent people are sent to make laws. Laws are not in place to guarantee equatable mortgage loans in Nigeria and people think its ok. What then is the government if they can’t work for the people? Developers are totally different business people, they are in the business for profit. My specific interest is in having banks finance loans that work for an average homeowner. Home ownership is a way of building wealth and accessibility would encourage equitable distribution of wealth.

Baba no Japa oo, he actually told me about it, he said he fathom in the bill to do a temporary scaffolding since your house is an upstairs, and you don't have a scaffolding install on site for them to use for the installation of the parapet after casting, about the materials, he said you will provide the materials for them to do their job and I really want to thank you for the opportunity you gave him to visit the site and he went there and you confirmed he was there sir.

He’s always the first in and the last out on our projects.
