Building your dream home or investment property is exciting.
But without the right preparation, it can turn into stress and unnecessary costs.
At Everview Properties Limited, we believe preparation is the foundation of success.
Here are key things to do before you start building.
1. Secure the Right Land
The first step is buying a verified plot of land.
Ensure it has proper documentation — C of O, R of O, or Deed of Assignment.
This protects you from disputes and future demolition risks.
2. Get a Proper Survey
A land survey defines your exact boundaries.
It prevents encroachment and helps in planning your structure.
Always hire a licensed surveyor for accuracy.
3. Obtain Necessary Permits
In Abuja, you must get building approval from the relevant authorities.
This ensures your project follows local regulations.
Skipping this step can lead to fines or stop-work orders.
4. Plan Your Budget
Construction costs can rise if you don’t plan well.
Set a realistic budget that covers materials, labor, permits, and unforeseen expenses.
Always keep a small reserve for emergencies.
5. Hire the Right Professionals
Work with experienced architects, engineers, and builders.
Check their past projects and reviews.
A skilled team ensures your building is safe and meets your vision.
6. Choose the Right Design
Think about functionality, space, and future needs.
Your design should fit the land size and follow approved building codes.
An architect can help you blend beauty with practicality.
7. Prepare the Site
Clear the land of trees, debris, or old structures.
Ensure soil tests are done to know its load-bearing capacity.
This step is crucial for a solid foundation.
Conclusion
Starting a building is not just about laying bricks.
It’s about careful planning and making the right choices from day one.

When you build on the right foundation, you build with peace of mind.
