Good To Know

Before you start construction

Get RAJUK approval first

Building plans within Dhaka require RAJUK (or the relevant local authority) approval before construction begins — factor in approval time and fees.

Budget 10–15% contingency

Material price swings and design changes are common — keep a contingency buffer on top of your base estimate.

Hire a licensed engineer

A structural engineer's sign-off protects your investment and is often required for loan disbursement and approvals.
