    Hi Natasha, congrats on moving on to the next phase of building the box foundation for the main house.
    I agree with you about being onsite to oversee the work. Good job 💯😊

      Heey! Thank you🙏🏾 it’s very imperative, as these bricklayers eventhough you try by giving them higher than the amount asked for labour just to be fair they will find a way to steal which is sad.

    My wife and I, were just watching some videos of homes in Lasaka Zambia..and loved the look of the communities
    . Curious as to land cost in general and if foreigners can own land there.

    • @NatashaM.
      @NatashaM.  2 года назад +2

      That’s awesome! The cost of land varies on the basis of the area you are buying it from. They can be as low as $200 cad or higher even up to a million dollars. It depends on the size, area, and other factors. If you send me an email I can give you more in depth information. I will be doing consultations for people looking to moving home from the diaspora, and even going to view land on behalf of people looking to buying and are moving back to the motherland. I will be going to see a immigration consultant pertaining citizenship for our brothers and sisters in the diaspora who are looking to coming back home, so I might make a video on it.. etc. thanks for reaching out.

    Wow this is amazing Natasha Welldone . I will be coming back home soon and also looking forward to start our building project . If you don't mind me asking approximately how much was your BOQ to complete a 2 bedroom house . I just want to have an idea of what I'm about to walk in to . Thank you in advance .

    • @NatashaM.
      @NatashaM.  3 года назад

      Thank you!!🙏🏾 that’s great! Don’t mind sending me a message on here or to my email if you have any questions. My BOQ I received it from the company that did my house plan that I designed. The best advice I would give you is avoid these so called little companies when entrusting your building project, especially local ones as they’re mostly comprised of many novices that are out to make a tonne of money and not deliver quality. With my project quality has been something I demand. I can send you a copy of what I received for mine which was quoted at almost K200 000 didn’t include finishes etc. these sums are exaggerated and slightly over priced, while you’re building with them their building for themselves with your material so thorough supervision is very important.

    How much should someone prepare to build a 2 bedroom house

    • @NatashaM.
      @NatashaM.  2 года назад +1

      So I personally can not give you exact figures as it entirely depends on you and how big your two bedroom is going to be, in terms of the dimensions, the sizes of your rooms etc. But what I can say is that start Where you can with what you have. You can build a 2 bedroom depending on all the details of the size, with between K80-100 thousand Which includes all the little things like the kitchen sink, bathroom stuff like toilet etc. But make sure that you are the one doing the monitoring or else it will be higher..
