n3xt:Good one sir. @temi4fash, Dpm shouldn't be ignored in building construction. When moisture starts to rise and attack walls it will be very disgusting to comprehend when sighted. It affects wall paints the most. Well, you can lay ur dpm again. |

Good morning ladies and men here! Buying a plot of land in Kogi State close the permanent site of the Federal University a good choice? How dry is the land around that area. I don't know the place. Considering the proposal and more so the plots are cheap, but are they really cheap looking at the State itself? Candid opinions please. NB: In an estate setting, who designs the plan and who digs & supervises the foundation laying? Just curious because I was told the realtor does that having paid [the client] for such before starting out building. Sincere regards. |

Consider using one of the other alternative waterproofing/dampfroofing options out there such as: 1) Bituminous felting .. purchase the 3mm or 4mm felt with other materials and hire someone to lay it 2) Chemical admixtures. check out some of these guys online that have various chemical solutions that they can apply above your DPC... Stotis Limited, 3Sisters and co. Its not all doom. temi4fash: |

Phylife:After you have acquired your landed property, nd have fulfilled the obligations of the paper works i.e CofO, survey plan and necessary charges. you have the right to have your own team who can help you execute your project to your desired taste. the client can entrust the building project under a project manager, who will then be the one to look for a suitable Architect, Q.S, Structural Engineer....... if the client as paid the realtor for the services you mentioned then the realtor is responsible for it, bt the client must work in close relationship with the team in decision making. |

temi4fash: Sorry that this happened. If I were you I will look at other areas where he might have taken a shortcut. My take is that it is my site, my project. I am only hiring you to lend your professional expertise in getting my dream realized and not to be a decision maker. I can't work with anyone that doesn't understand that. 2 Likes |

Swichnerd: Thanks for your contribution. The issue here is: An estate agent came with a promo for plots of land near the proposed permanent site of the Federal University within Lokoja, Kogi State. The offers a mouth-watering to say the least. She said the place is a dry land. I don't know much about Lokoja apart from what I hear, read and see when on transit. My question now is, does anyone know that axis very well? How is the place like security-wise, and during rainy season? The agent also told me that the realtor would be the one to design the plan [hand me a copy] and dig the foundation in order not to derail from the estate plan but I can alter the inner design to my spec. Is this how estates are built? Your informed opinions please. CC: Beframia Egunmogaji Rotech77 N3xt Muyi00 |

Hello Waterway, Myself and my friend also brought plots of Land at Victory Estate since early 2016. They are yet allocate the land but demanding for developmental fees from a land they are yet to allocate. Everytime you call the Manager, she will either tell you to call back or will not pick your calls afterwards. Can someone assist to investigate or check if Kayode Obembe is credible or scammer because other developers that sold (later) around the area have started their Land allocation? Waterway: |

Thank you boss! But I don’t understand what you mean by the tonnes! Is it 2 in 1 or 4 in 1 truck ? QSFemi: |
Re: General Topic Thread-To Discuss Anything And Everything in Building Construction by n3xt(m): 2:15pm On Oct 02, 2020 |
Phylife: First of all, I don’t know anything about Lokoja. Secondly, I’ll suggest you ask the agent to get you a copy of the estate’s Deed Restriction document to get more fact. Deed Restrictions is a very important issue to address when building in estates (well established or otherwise). So I encourage you to get more facts about the estate from the estate managers before making any commitment. I’ve had to fight some of these rules in some estate and convince the management of the estate to bend/abolish the rules in some cases. E.g Diamond Estate, Sangotedo, Lagos. |

MrOkenwa: Why Rent/Tenancy? Why not a Lease/Lessee? I only do Lease and it is for "certain" period, with option to offer to have another Lease in place, just as the current one expires. It has really served me very well because l have a few buildings that l manage and l dont use Agents, except for the initial process of giving out the Lease, where they bring prospective Lessees. It is a bit involved and requires a bit of attention to details, a "Tight Agreement" that l drew myself, with a good knowledge of tenancy Laws.BTW, the Law allows you to go into exclusive agreements with a [erson taking your Lease, with regards to the duration, quit terms, etc and it is binding once you both agree to it. Also, select your occupiers by yourself, dont allow one Agent who is just after his commission, to just "dump a problem occupier" on you, it will be your headache after that! Infact, this is the most important thing a House owner can do, to avoid trouble. It is not everyone that can pay he first payment, tha deserves to live in your house, beware! I wish l can give you a detailed analysis but time is not on my hand right now. Your Lease agreement will determine your Peace of mind with those who occupy your premises, so pay attention to it as to what you want to happen (within limits of the law) and get it properly signed and Stamp dutied. Never do Rent, do a Lease, a Lease certain and be wary of "Agent Lawyers", they love to play both sides while making money off both sides. I only use Lawyer if l have to go to Court but my Lease agreements are so detailed and legally tight enough to the point that l have never gone to Court to eject a Lessee (occupier) though l also play fair with my occupiers and l go etra mile to make sure they enjoy thier money, with a lavishly furnished Flat and good environment. Lastpage! PS: Sorry, l am in a hurry and you can see tha l dont even have time to do my usual color-colorings! 5 Likes 2 Shares |
