After 20 years of housing promises, apparently a few days of fuel protests have now scuppered the Government’s housebuilding plans. Nothing to do with years of failure, costs, planning or bureaucracy, obviously.

In a market where lots of things look expensive and overly popular, spare a thought for the poor beleaguered UK housebuilder bloomberg.com/news/newslette…

Richard James Sunley Tice was sent to Uppingham School (current fees: up to £18,558/term). He working for a housebuilding and commercial property company The Sunley Group, founded by his grandfather, before leaving to run his own debt advisory consultancy.

I don’t want to say you have failed if, in your 30s, it has never crossed your mind to get land so you can own a house one day. But at 30, you should have started putting a 10-year plan in place to build a house before you clock 40. If you're a middle-income earner and you are paying ₦600,000 rent in Lagos, you can build your own house with a simple 10-year plan. Some people would wonder, "Shey within that 10 years, Omo Onile will not grab the land back?" That is one of the biggest fears many people have about buying land. The solution is simple. Get land from genuine estate companies that focus on low- and middle-income earners. Your land remains secured as long as you complete your payment and obtain the necessary documentation. A lot of people do land banking with such companies. If the opportunity to own land comes your way, please don't ignore it. Instead, do these two simple things that can help you become a landowner sooner than you think. Do not let "That place is too far" hold you back. Do not let "That place is bush" hold you back. Do not let "Who will go and live there?" hold you back. But let me tell you something. Twenty years ago, many people said those same words about land opportunities in Ayobo and Sangotedo that they can no longer afford today. At that time, they had the money, but they never imagined those places would become this developed. If you do not buy where people are telling you to buy today, in the next 10, 15, or 20 years, you may return to that same place you rejected and start looking for a house to rent there. Many of the places where people struggle to rent houses today were once places nobody wanted to buy land. If you don't want that to become your story, do these two things. First, ask if you can pay in instalments. Many landowners and real estate companies understand that not everybody can pay at once. That is why they provide flexible payment plans to help low- and middle-income earners become landowners. We do that too in our company. Don't assume you cannot afford land until you have asked about instalment options. Sometimes, what looks impossible can become achievable when payment is spread over time. Second, join an Ajo or thrift contribution. Or join cooperative society Many people underestimate how powerful Ajo can be. It has helped thousands of people buy land, build houses, start businesses, and solve important family needs. Some people contribute ₦10,000 every two weeks. Some do ₦50,000 monthly. Some even contribute more. Before you know it, you have raised enough money for a deposit or even full payment for a plot of land. I personally know people who used Ajo money to buy land and later build their own houses. Give it a try . #housing #landlord #realestateagent #housebuild #land #Copied

If you arrived here at night, would you dare to stay in this house? Once, this hillside was nothing but empty land, silence and wind. But step by step, the build from scratch began; site prep, foundation, walls, roofs, panoramic and windows, terrac and the final finishing touches. In the end, it became a true hillside home with a pool, warm lightning, and an atmosphere you'd want to experience in real life. #Buildfromscratch #HouseBuild #BeforeAfter #Timelapse #Buildingcrafts

I'm specifically arguing about these proposals. Where they suggest the bulk of the homes will be deliverable within 6-10 years. Is that with no infrastructure? Because that volume on housebuild alone is already unprecedented and unachievable. But throw in the infrastructure requirement on top of that, and they're going to need about £100bn upfront to get this moving. It's all academic, because this is never going to happen.
