Building From Abroad : A Thread by Ndyoo(op): 1:45pm On Oct 20, 2021
I want to create a thread whereby people who are building a house from Abroad will contribute how they do it or how they have done it.

I know there are many who have done this that are in this platform.

This is not a place to argue whether you hand it to a professional or not. I am of the opinion that a professional should handle building construction. Also its not a place to advertise your services. There are so many threads created for that. The problem is, with the current inflation and things going on in Nigeria, most professionals charge extremely high because prices are unstable. The high price I understand is to accommodate the fluctuations of material price.

As someone who is building from Abroad, how did you go about it. Finding an engineer. Making payments. Supervising the work of the engineer from beginning until ending.

I will start with myself.

Someone suggested buying materials myself and supplying the professional as a way to cut cost. I have family members who could do that, but then I am afraid of them not knowing the terrains or in moving to cut cost, buy substandard materials. I have a bill of quantities detailing what's needed at each stage and I noticed that the price is varying a lot from the bill of quantities and what the professionals are quoting.

I am here for advise, suggestion and discussing with people in the same dilemma.

I'm a certified First Class Civil Engineer sir. I build for people and go ahead to do the finishes and interior designing for my clients if they give me a go ahead.
I've built for a client who resides at the UK and will start another for a client at India by next year. Let me build for you anywhere in Nigeria.

I know you don't want to make the mistake of not seeing exactly what you have in mind to build when you visit the country. I wouldn't want you to fall into the hands of quacks. I'll show you what your house will look like in 3d before we start building and that's exactly what you'll get. I build with so much experience and precision. We can chat further on WhatsApp sir: +2348031386321
