There are some important factors to consider when building a house within the Gambia.
Permits & Fence Building
Once you have acquired your architectural drawings the next step would be to get your housing plan approved by the planning department which is located within Banjul. This will come at some cost however it is a necessity to get these documents fulfilled.
Also, it is important that you secure your land. Setting up a structure that covers the circumference of your land will allow you to set boundaries in line with your plans. You need to make sure that you’re building in line with the land you have purchased, making sure not to go out of the boundary.
Costs
One of the main factors to consider would be the cost. Buying land in the Gambia may be considered great value, but perhaps you risk running up the cost if you do not manage your resources properly. When it comes to the construction industry at The Gambia prices of materials are always rising, so try to buy in bulk where necessary.
The cost will also depend on the amount of man-power you will need to employ. If you have a great eye for DIY you may not need to pay for as many labourers.
