How much does it Cost to Build a House in Nigeria?


At OFMV on Home Planning and Building Engineer Section, we understand these challenges that is why we have written this blog post

to guide you through the factors affecting the cost, types of houses and practical steps to manage expenses.

Several factors influence the cost of building a house in Nigeria.

It is important that you understand these factors as they will help you plan better.

#1. Location


Urban vs. Rural Areas: Building costs are higher in urban areas like Lagos and Abuja due to higher land prices and living costs.

Accessibility: Locations with better road networks and infrastructure tend to be more
expensive.

#2. Land

Land Prices: The price of land varies significantly across Nigeria. Prime locations in cities
are more expensive.

Land Preparation: Clearing and preparing the land for construction can add to costs.

 Design and Size

Architectural Design: Custom designs by experienced architects can be costly but offer
unique and efficient use of space.

Size of the House: Larger houses naturally cost more due to the increased materials and labor
required.

#3. Materials

Quality of Materials: Using high-quality materials will increase costs but can save money in the long run due to durability.

Sourcing: Imported materials can be more expensive than locally sourced ones.

Different types of houses come with varying costs. Here are some common types in Nigeria:



#1. Bungalow

Estimated Cost: ₦100,000,000 to ₦350,000,000 depending on the design and location.


#3. Terraced House

Terraced houses share walls with adjacent houses, making them cheaper to build.

WHAT DO YOU THINK? - We have all sinned and deserve God's judgment. God, the Father, sent His only Son to satisfy that judgment for those who believe in Him. Jesus, the creator and eternal Son of God, who lived a sinless life, loves us so much that He died for our sins, taking the punishment that we deserve, was buried, and rose from the dead according to the Bible. If you truly believe and trust this in your heart, receiving Jesus alone as your Savior, declaring, "Jesus is Lord," you will be saved from judgement, and spend eternity with God in heaven.

What is your response?
Yes, today, I'm deciding to follow Jesus

Yes, I'm already the follower of Jesus.
