Building a new residential building is the fulfillment of a lifelong dream, but it can also be a complex process influenced by various factors, such as the reputation of the builder and the location. If you already own a plot of land in a residential area, this serves as a significant starting point.
Constructing a residential building involves following a step-by-step procedure to ensure a smooth and successful process.
Managing your finances
Your financial resources could come from personal savings, bank loans, or borrowing from friends and family etc. However, it's important to make sure you have enough funding before starting the project, as construction materials like cement can lose strength if stored for more than six months. Before beginning construction, it is very important to carefully evaluate your financial options and determine how to obtain the necessary funds.
Find your preferred location
The location is a crucial factor when deciding where to construct your home. Do you envision waking up to the sunrise through your windows, or are you content with the view of nearby buildings? Before starting residential home construction, ensure essential amenities are conveniently located within reach. Additionally, familiarize yourself with the legal aspects of the chosen location.
Research regulations, development plans, permits, zoning laws, and any restrictions that may apply. It's equally important to assess the practical aspects of the site, such as structural foundations, slopes, soil types, and property boundaries etc.
Plan ahead for water sources, drainage systems, utility lines, and other essential infrastructure to ensure a smooth construction process.
Create a plan
The first step in building a new house is creating a detailed design plan. Decide on the number of rooms, their sizes, and whether you want to include provisions for future expansion.
Establish a clear budget, accounting for all expenses, including materials like blocks, cement, and paint, as well as labor costs. Ensure construction materials are purchased from reliable suppliers to guarantee quality.
Stick to your budget, but set aside a extra budget reserved for any unexpected costs that may arise during your home construction. Arrange your finances in advance to ensure funds are readily available when needed.
It is very important to finalize your building plan beforehand and make sure everyone involved in the residential building construction process understands and agrees to the safety measures in place.

Consider the resale value
Before starting your home construction process, it’s also important to consider its potential resale value. As circumstances can change over time, think about whether the fixtures and features you plan to include will appeal to future buyers if you decide to sell.
Also, take your lifestyle into account when designing the house to avoid any design choices that may not suit your needs or lead to future regrets.
Make sure to arrange water and electricity temporarily
