Building a Bungalow or Duplex in Nigeria: Which is ACTUALLY Cheaper? | Costs Money $$$ | Flo Finance

[@laraoluwole5068]

Bungalow is very easy to maintain. Maximum 3 bedrooms is very adequate with beautiful landscaping. The cost of decking a storey building is enough to finish building the bungalow. Also old age comfort is guaranteed no stress of upstairs o!

[@FloFinance]

Yes, if you are building a maximum of 3 bedrooms, fine. But remember, there are some people that can't build a house with only 3 bedrooms. Some people build for extended family members too. For us, even the 6-bedroom house we built does not contain everyone that wants to come during Christmas. The main point of my video is that anyone of them is good, people should just not go for a big bungalow because they think it is "cheaper". Choose for the right reasons, that's all.

As an architect, I discovered most Nigerians build detached storey buildings ( Duplex) as a status symbol. Post occupancy evaluation of most these buildings showed that most rooms upstairs ended up not occupied especially as the owners grow very old and children also move out as they grow old. What I advise my clients is to have a big visitor's bedroom or extra room downstairs that would be converted to master bedroom in future when Oga and Madam cannot no longer climb stairs up and down. Madam you are doing a good job

[@helennwafor2903]

Thank you . Great presence always. Our people do look down on bungalows .

[@thomasanderson3892]

Bungalows are so great for the long haul.

[@FloFinance]

Those that look down on bungalows have never seen a palatial one. 🏛

[@Rikasnativekitchen]

I think Bungalow is better, for the reason when you retire and your legs can't carry you, it's easy to still access your home. Bungalow is easy to maintain when it comes to cleaning every conner of the house.

My wife and in-laws are currently building a bungalow in the village. They decided on the bungalow because they wanted it completed quickly for their mother's burial.

[@chidimmaiheyi6706]

Thank you for sharing. This is the problem we with of our siblings I want a duplex my brother suggested a bungalow and saying because of maintenance I asked him what does takes to 5 5-bedroom bungalow he could not depreciate that. Sometimes our siblings come with a different mindset of their own not what the person wants. It depends on the person building what he or she wants. Like you said if you can have the money for it you go for it. A duplex or bungalow is for you own problems.

Happy Christmas my beautiful mentor, Mama the Flo. Thank you so much for your encouragement for someone's bright future.

[@ayobamiajibade2360]

No streelss in building duplex. Ensure u have like 2 standard rooms down stair, shiukdbincase old age qill nitvallowbu to move up. But duplex is d best

[@FloFinance]

Yes, people are starting to add a master bedroom downstairs these days. So during old age, they stay on the groundfloor.

[@okwuchukwubenedict1084]

You are an intelligent woman with a man's mind. I bu onye ebee?

[@baronogbolu9861]

hello madam flo. As always your presentation are hilarious as well as informative. Thanks for the insight. As you in the process of making a video which shows the cost of building a bungalow. You have a video of building a duplex but not a video.

[@FloFinance]

I uploaded a video for a bungalow long before that of a 5-bed and a 4-bed detached houses. Here you go: kzbin.info/www/bejne/fqesYWCGf9iUfNE The prices may be obsolete but the quantities of building materials remain the same. Glad you enjoyed the video.

[@okezieonyinyechi6773]

Honestly, I thought bungalow would be cheaper because I was more concerned with the deck in building a duplex. I don't regret it, though, but I learned a lesson for another house in the future.

[@FloFinance]

Good luck. 👍

[@GemSpotter-iy3ii]

Thanks for you update always. Please will 35m-40m complete a standard modern 3 bedroom bungalow including furniture in this current Nigeria?

[@FloFinance]

The total cost depends on your taste but overall, finishing is expensive: tiles, POP, electrical wires alone eh? Then electrical fittings, plumbing materials and fittings. Doors! No, that amount won't complete the house let alone furnish it.

[@architectbiola9840]

₦35-₦40m can complete a standard 3 bedroom bungalow depending on the design and choice of finishing. To be sure, after your design, you need a material and labour schedule from a qualified quantity surveyor. I am an architect. I am into design and build

[@ESORE706]

Good

[@DorisL-ti6yn]

❤❤❤❤❤

[@KingsleyAkpan-w4q]

Can 30million build a 4bed room bungalow with a penthouse from foundation to roofing for 30million without finishing?

[@KingsleyAkpan-w4q]

Thanks for the enlightenment Madam. Please can 35 million build a cacass 4bedroom bungalow with an half deck for a one room upstair?

[@FloFinance]

From start to completion? No. And fyi, that half deck is high maintenance at the point where the roof of the bungalow side joins the one room storey building. If not built by an experienced person wey sabi work, you will be fixing the leakage forever.

[@Chizzy_graphix]

Ma pls what is the height of ur boys Quarter?

[@adeadekanmbi502]

Prep for retirement and old age, build a bungalow
