Building a house at home can be as easy as going to the supermarket to buy, however, you have to pay the price through the proper channel and save yourself from heartbreak or pay the hard way and God help you not to end up losing your money. total.

Money is easily wasted on over-reliance on relatives and friends alike. When you entrust your money to these people because they are close to you, that’s good, but if you’re unlucky enough to have terrible relationships, you can be in trouble without knowing it. Family ties will prevent you from taking legal action against them. This is what you should do to avoid these problems.

(1) Let the professionals handle your project:

This is where many people go wrong and until now still laugh at ignorance. People believe that hiring the professionals will increase your construction cost, this is absolutely false, although on the surface to you, a professional charges such a high amount of money that it stretches you to the point of investing a little beyond your budget. and you Wonder why you have to spend several thousand naira on a man who will just come to your site, find a tree to sit on, stay 30 minutes to 1 hour on your site and collect all the money. Ask those who have faced the backlash of not consulting the professionals: the evidence is dotting the Nigerian landscape.

Paying for professionals is not wasteful, but you are paying for it to save yourself money without knowing it, it is not clear to you. Yeah you face search the charlatans they charge very little to do the job you don’t mind the peanuts you paid them I guess you see yourself as smart but wait just two years and see what they got. be from your house You will start spending a lot more correcting the bugs of the charlatans and it has to be possible until the building finally comes crashing down. There are houses in Nigeria, that you have to paint every 6 months to make them look good, however, some have gone for 10 years without repainting and still look better. What about the cracks in all your houses? How did your healer respond to challenges on the site that weren’t initially there? If it rains, what will become of your house? Many and more than the professionals would have done to ensure they have a proper home, sadly everyone sees one as a thief.

One of the surest ways is to hire the services of a notable architectural firm in the country, yes they will charge more, but they have a reputation to protect and will not run away with your money. There are building and construction companies that are very good in the country, why not hire their services.

(2) Do not send all the money at once:

After all, sending a lump sum to your next of kin may be your downfall. A naturally nice person can change at the sight of a large amount of money, he would have committed the crime and used his money for his personal gain before blaming the devil. This becomes even easier since you’re not there to monitor things yourself, all you have to do is send him photos of a beautiful home somewhere.

If you linger a bit, the worst that will happen is only a small increase in your price, but you’ll have had plenty of opportunity to check either back home or through other friends as a third party before investing heavily: you also create artificial scarcity. , there is a mistaken belief that people abroad have a lot of money to spend.

(3) Check and don’t let anyone trick you into buying or paying for something when your mind isn’t completely clear about it.

(4) Find a time, maybe once a year, to come home and monitor the progress of your building. In two ways, if you are impressed by what you see, it can encourage you to work better and vice versa, it discourages you, and this will give you the opportunity to take stock and take the necessary steps to achieve your goals.

(5) Your ownership documents are what you need and will serve as proof of ownership in case of legal disputes or private raids. If it’s the government, then it should be able to pay you compensation.
