Total Costs So Far | Owner Building In South Africa

My own labour cost is not included in these totals. As an owner builder I worked for free.

Me who is young, having R10 in my account but watching this with so much interest😂❤. Thank you, this was very educational

Very much clever and rare idea to document the building of the house and the relevant costs thereof. It'll be more interesting if you could also include the value of the stand. Overall great content.

Roof is the most expensive part of building a house; I recall getting a quotation in January 2022 simply to get a rough idea of how much I needed to save; it was about R72k when I went back in May 2022 to purchase; it was around R91K when I returned home I cried real tears shame. and with the additional materials that I had to purchase, it increased to +- 106k.

Good overview. The only advise I can add always have room for unforeseen cost. lets say proj estimation are at 500k, always have 100k to accommodate unforeseen.

In 1980 my uncle built a 4 bedroom house, three bathrooms, two lounges, dining room and a huge kitchen in a small town. Including the price of the stand, and all the extras, like flooring, plumbing, baths and showers, basins kitchen fitted cupboards, stove and a pool, the total cost was R48 000. It was one of the most beautiful houses in town. It sold for R2.5 million in 2009. How much will a house like this cost in 2053?

Thank you so much for your transparency. This is eye opening unique and refreshing content.

[loydphilani]

This helped me so much as I’m planning to build my small 4 room

[ndzimu-unamiemmanuelmoyo]

Damn, this is lovely. I calculated R463, 674 🥰🥰

So interesting to see your costs against ours here in George. Cool content you guys have!

Very informative video brother, however construction Costs vary according to province, KZN being the most expensive place to build due to difference in material and labour costs, followed by Guateng and Western Province. Architectural and professional fees are much more than alocated on this video (professionally from 9.5% to 14% of the project costs). Also always have 10% to 15% of contingency fees (travelling, accomodation, meals, unforeseen costs).
I think this is a powerful platform to feed & lead our potential clients with informative knowledge in the right direction.

For those who are asking how many room is it, it's a 3 bedroom, 2 and a half bath (one en suite) with a kitchen and a lounge.

This is a best Chanel, and can help lot of people understand a work needed to be done to complete a project and estimate, however I question the price's and quality of the work.
