5 Bedroom Twin Duplex

Details coming soon...

I like. Can't wait.

Invest in a good camera and take shots from the right angles to showcase your paints. painting workmanship is below average so its difficult to appreciate the paint quality itself.

Thank me later.

Browne Mews by NextHome | Offtakers Wanted!

How much should i be looking at? Any insights into the finishings and facilities?

In my opinion, both Brabus and Maverick need to have a face to face meeting to resolve these issues. There has been a lot of clamour for Brabus to refund money but like they say "A man convinced against his will remain unconvinced". Arbitrators are doing a good job but so far the success has been limited. Both parties need to meet and agree. In the interim, before that agreement is reached, i think there needs to be a ceasefire from both parties for a specified period of time to see what can be achieved in an atmosphere devoid of hostilities.

brabus:
@ Mr Maverrick, just keep the calls coming even at the odd hour of the night. She won't pick.

How the heck did he get your wife's number? That number ought not to be available to your clients? You should have multiple numbers from all networks where you can be reached. just a lesson for another client.

Thanks Skimanski. Very helpful and much appreciated.

My caretaker is my stop gap and if pushed I will get diya involved. To be frank he can only truly handle properties in this area ipaja ayobo and the environment. The likelihood is that I will be speaking to Diya fatimilehin in the next week or so to handle the ajah one.

Caretaker was introduced to me by another landlady who has now become a friend met her while investigating a potential tenant.

Diya Fatimilehin and co have offices in

Yaba - mrs fasan - 08053217387
Island - lettings-08154990432 - mr bakare
lsland - mgt08053214109 - mr fowokan

Okay Madam Gabby, Thanks for this information. Very useful.

I get involved in the letting process and ensure that notices are issued if I suspect that a tenant Is struggling to pay be it rent or service charge. On average the alarm bells start to ring once you start owing service charge close to 3 months.

I am currently owed about 1m. I choose to be a little flexible but they should be paid soon. 1 is already served and the other 2 will be if I don't receive shortly. My caretaker was granted 2 evictions in the last 2 months one is for a friend's house and the tenant was not even owing rent but was really problematic. It got wrapped up in less than a month cost next to nothing.

If I get pushed I now have a real estate firm that are strictly business Diya fatimilehin that am told do the business.

So who is your care taker? Diya Fatimilehin? I will seriously like to be in touch with a caretaker who can deliver so quickly.

This was a good thread until grown azz men became unruly.
Nonsense.

This thread has become messy.

Way forward, please.

Not to worry. This too shall pass. In the midst of the brickbats, lots of very useful stuff is being posted by all parties.

As you should treat content in most public but faceless forum, just take what is useful to you and ignore the rest.

More Pics on Building Demarcation Updates.

Hello Skimanski, can you show me a sketch of how this land was partitioned for privacy foe each of the duplexes. I have been trying to figure it out from the pictures without success. A rough hand depiction or typed explanation will do. Thanks.

Show us the picture of the house na? Where is it located? What type of house is this?

My 1k furnitures has no effect to dasuki pool of 2billion dollars bros,the way it is now Everyman to himself o.

My brother you don't have to solve Nigeria's problem nor is anyone asking you to. Just start by solving the problems in your small corner. Furniture? China? ...even with better and competitively priced alternatives? C'mon...

Na wa o....furniture from China? We have some young and not so young people doing amazing things with soft and hard furnishings. Check out TouchstoneNG, Korbett, TinoTino, Multicolor Inter etc.

Nairaland has been downgraded to a "blog-repost-website"

No more intellectual stuff gracing the front page.

If its not olamide today, its dija tomorrow. The day after that, threads that would promote ethno-tribal exchange of insults

Make I no talk before them go ban me

I just tire! Lazy moderators and owners.

It was a design from Phillipines but I put some fresh touches to it.

Okay. Thanks and Kudos. It cracked a long standing puzzle for me.

Beautiful Nigerian songstress, Chidinma recently took to her official instagram page to share a really cute black and white photo in which she was looking stunning as usual.
We think she looks cool in the photo, do you agree?

This is going to go into a section of my existing lot that has the foundation already constructed for my future courtyard bungalow.

The ground floor is 24 feet by 24 feet (a somewhat oversized two car garage). The second floor is slightly less than 25 feet by 25 feet, supported by nine pillars with a sloping flat roof and a balcony.


Thanks.

Structure is similar to this

@EgunMogaji, i love this concept and i am about to plagiarize it. I already have a decked garage and was about to slope it while tiling but this concept just trumps that idea. Dimensions are approximately 26ft x 20ft.

princechigzy:
We Quickly re-drew the architectural drawing of the house so as to produce the structural drawing and as well insert our supporting columns.

Well...this significantly defaces the building. However, better standing and defaced than "looked good but collapsed". Another basic lessons for would be landlords. Don't be shy of initial expenses to be sure you have a structurally sound building. Finishing is secondary to structural integrity.

EgunMogaji:
It'll be a separate structure entirely.

Could the town planing folks do a drive by and notice that "hey wait a dang monuto, this ain't what we approved!"

Very Unlikely! Just paint your building plan approval number on your fence and nobody is going to bother you. Unless there is a "Judas" in your team trying to make extra money...but even at that you should have no major problems.

brabus:
Oga TLAX, na you open the thread wey I close.

gbadexy:
Sealants are meant to seal wall surface so that exterior water doesn't affect the wall and underground water doesn't affect the wall or building.
Good quality paints protect against exterior exposure to water but cannot protect against ground water that causes damp in building, so the wall is sealed with a penetrative sealant that soaks into the concrete or plaster to react the sand and free lime in it from the cement.
This forms an insoluble substance that blocks the pores in the wall and reduce porosity so that the wall becomes denser.
This treatment would naturally make the wall stronger and durable. It would also protect the building from damp in areas prone to damp.
This penetrative sealant is better than surface sealant that is only effective in protecting building from surface water and not from underground water that wicks up through capillary action. Such water would eventually push off such surface treatment that is like nylon sealing the wall.
Besides, such treatment won't allow the wall to breathe.
But using a densifier/ penetrative sealant, water vapor is still allowed to pass but not noticeable water.
The sealant is only effective on unpainted walls.

Thanks a lot. It can be done after screeding then?

Hello Gbadexy, can you talk a little more about sealants used in painting jobs? What area are this really useful or should be applied on all painted walls? What are the advantages? is it applied after the walls have been painted?

Thanks for continuing to share this project.
I know it's not a N50million project in Lekki but just know that this Americana is following you attentively.

mufutau55:
You are not the only one Boss. Thanks OP.

Hajji M.

This "Nigeriana" is on the ride and watching closely too . I bought a very bad plot of land (in terms of soil texture) in Gbagada that has defied economic logic for any commercial residential purposes so I am fast forwarding my dream of owning a hospitality/sports bar and this container stuff may just be it.

gbadexy:
After pictures.

I hope those court lines are temporary. You can do better in very easy steps. You are into painting and so should know.

agenta999:
@kolashangone, smiley001 and others. I have looked at ur profile very well and i can understand ur fear. I have a deal for u. We can register all builders and material sellers and have someone responsible incase of any deft.

If i have evidence that u exist as a person and that u actually have a life and had bought properties or build ur houses by spider880. I would not have made my thread in the first place.
If the people from his village with good life who are surpose to be his brothers did not defend him like u then what else.

Yeah...the guy built a block of flats for me in Enugu in 2014 and I have no issues with him or the house. I was actually impressed. But I think there is something you are not saying or afraid to say.

This is the Harney Projects Team? Hmmm....Young guys. Who is Abdulwastecx and who is Podosci?

I know these two guys and I endorse them. Very competent and hardworking duo.

Brabus, you have a penchant of JUSTIFYING and RATIONALISING ALL your actions!

It was pointed out that you blocked the drainage. Initially, you denied it. Now you are traying to rationalise why you are RIGHT to have blocked the drainage! How many more WRONG things will you do and still try to rationalise and justify?

No one is perfect. We all do make mistakes. We do make wrong choices. The difference is accepting and making ammends.

All the BEST.

Its not unusual to have this kinds of situations during construction even in built up areas. Nothing wring with that especially even the contractor restores to condition he met it or better as soon as possible. Lekki II is jot really a built up area so nobody is being inconvenienced for now. I will take Brabus to the gallows if after construction he fails to clear the drainage, build proper culverts and fixes that portion if the road his trucks have obviously damaged...of course this is expected to be taken care of by the landlord.

spyder880:
Many more payments will not come up, I am from here and we all know what and what to be paid, "nri ani" is something nobody can dodge in Igboland. It is a customary requirement for a land deal to be cemented after cash has been exchanged , and was supposed to be a feast where I will even come with my entire people to enjoy dance ,cooking and merriment meant to join the two parties and introduce everyone to everyone else. Land purchase is treated here like a marriage ceremony, same process .

The only difference is that these days, people now want their cooking to be converted to cash

Nobody can come and claim their family was cheated because everyone who was supposed to sign was represented. We identified the head of every household and they all signed the agreements.

Agreed that everybody knows of the post payment rites to cement land purchase but don't leave them complicate it more than it should be. Traditions differ. In my own area it is called "ewu ani" and you simply slaughter a goat in the presence of family members selling the land and the sale becomes irreversible after that. No other ceremony. So in this case,bit would have been good to let other people have complete information ad to what is involved because this "nri ani" and others that may come up in future may be unknown to them.
