You are very welcome Yves. I’m so glad to hear that you are making this step and that my videos has inspired you. My best advice for you is to go at your own pace and do what’s comfortable for you.

1k subs..whoot whoot. Thanks for sharing your journey with us..I've been curious about the actual cost for this big of a house. We have a price breakdown for our plan but sooner you will realize that you're spending more.
Thank you so much Jefyne! That means a lot coming from you who’s on the ground doing this work in real time. It gives me some validation that we on the right track.
Well said sister, prices will be way different based on quality of materials, location of property, size of property, etc. I am building a 45000 square foot two story building in Marshall. Foundation alone cost me $16k, casting of the first floor was the most expensive phase, over $26k. Solid materials and great quality works. Expensive but worth it.
Thank you my sister for your advice. I just finished with the Roofing of my three (3) bedroom house in Liberia. I am now working on the Bars(windows and security doors). Thanks again. It's not an easy Task
Thank you so much for all that you do. I have watched your channel from the beginning of your foundation to present. Your breakdown has helped a lot. From the size of your house, l expected you all to have spent approximately $80 - $90,000. You have really helped me in a way that you will not imagine. Looking forward to seeing your finishing and some tips on the solar panelling. You are right. Mary Ann Allen has been helpful too. The Lord bless and strengthen you and cause you to enjoy your beautiful home. 🏡 🏡 🏡

Thanks so much for this video, we just started building in Liberia, starting experience is not good, my husband is still there we spent almost 14.000 and the foundation is not done his time is out,but we did a lot of research, next time,we will do things differently.
MJ it really is a learning experience building in Liberia my dear..an expensive learning experience at times🧐but hang in there. There’s light at the end of the tunnel
This was very informative and I appreciate it.....i did complain about the roof but I’m happy that you took it as constructive criticism....i love the house....the price definitely is in my range. Once again congratulations and much success moving forward.
Wow this is wonderful. Well done. You are my inspiration. Can wait to see the final result. Could you please give some info on your building contractors?
Congrats Peeso👏🏾! This is so informative & I’m looking forward to chilling in your beautiful house. I followed/subscribed to Maryann’s video as well because she puts out good information too so kudos for giving a shout out to a fellow TH-camr. Let me get this credit score up to at least 500 because I’ll need a construction loan to build a house out there😀😀😀
@@bbalderston125 wait hold on, how's that not a good question to ask on TH-cam? That's so weird and only Africans behave like this. Government obligations or what you call it are all public sectors, meaning their informations are made to be public. The only reason anyone will have a mentality like yours is when they're breaking the law. That was so weird what I just read. You'll never see an American give a response such as this to a question like that, because you can't break the law here like it's freely done in Africa so you won't have a thing to hide.
@@whengodspeaks7325 girl don't listen to that one. Your question is relevant. Anyone that has a problem with it should check themselves cos they have something to hide.
Thanks for sharing your honest advice. Many people in third world country over charge people abroad to build a house in Liberia. they think we have money tree. Every one struggling just to make end meets and this is taking place in every country. Thanks my sister.
You very welcome my sister🙏🏾🙏🏾We have to be honest with one another. We want to pay for good work but it’s not fair to always expect us to over pay for everything simply because we live abroad.

@@Byllu8380 Building cost the same all over the world. That house would cost the exact same in Mississippi or Alabama in a Black county. Land in the capital city can cost a million dollars in 3rd world countries, just as it may cost in America in Washington DC. The only difference may be labor. Labor can be cheaper but you don't get warranty, insurance and certifications.
When the Ceiling is installed, do you wait until you do your second phase of plumbing, and tiling, before doing the Ceiling spraying. I was told, you don’t want the dust on the ceiling, before spraying. Please, I need information from you, PEESO, what to do next. Thank You.
Congrats great job! Very nice and informative, well presented summary of the project. You did well on the house! A masonry structure like that is the US..$$$$$$ you know. Don't worry about the roof, upgrade some years ahead during dry season. You probably have split air units already - they work great.
Thanks for the video. Who built your house ? I want to build in Liberia but I don’t know anyone to do the job. Please help me with that information. Thanks
Dolly do you plan on being in Liberia during the building? If not you will need someone to be in charge of your project and work with the builder. My building did not speak English as a first language so my project manager did a lot to manage the process. I would say find someone you trust to oversee your project first then let them find you the right builder/contractors. Get several different quotes before deciding on one person.
A very good day to you. Please your video look very very amazing and educative. Please I wish to ask the Dollar you are referring to in this video is "Liberia Dollar" or the "US Dollar". Thank you very much for your wonderful concerns.
Hi Jackson. It took us a few years to build our house… about 4 years because we to breaks when we needed to. We did not use a construction company. Our builder is an independent contractor.

This is a 4 bedroom house. Sorry I don’t have the exact square footage but please go back and watch my interior tile videos to get a sense of how big the house is inside. Thanks 🙏🏾
Hey, this is very helpful. I'm based in Kenya with a similar project too. My experience has been that the construction is a little 'trickier' in Kenya when a lady is in charge, as opposed to when a man is in charge. There are times when workers/fundis will want to overcharge ladies or generally assume that they do not know a whole lot about it. It's been a learning process.
Yes my dear sister Walala that is so true. We will continue to do out part to put these kind of assumptions about women to an end. Much blessings to you with your project
