It should be mentioned that there is a HUGE variation in price of materials based on quality. You can purchase a window package that is $5,000 or you can easily spend $35k+. We've seen price ranges on cabinetry from $28k to $75k on the same exact house, just changing quality and manufacturer. I couldn't imagine being in a market where you can markup homes by 30%.

@sergiomelendez285 2 года назад

The cost of a semi-custom or custom home will vary wildly depending on land cost, materials used, finishes in the house, and maybe turn around time. You can estimate (or purchase) a lot. Find a semi custom home builder that has a model for you to view and request a quote. A lot of times with upgrades and building houses you have to just set the budget and build the house to that budget. Its a lot easier to say to the builder I want a house built like this quality with these finishes, but this wall moved, an extra garage, and adjust from there. The more specific you are the tighter the range of the estimates. At a minimum you should be able to know the cost of the land. Also, you can work with an architect. I think you need to ask the question the other way around. Instead of "how much money do I need to build this house". You should ask "how much house can I build with this much money. "

Housing is insane compared to what it used to be. I grew up in a 6 bedroom house (far bigger than this one) that cost 12k, or just over a years pay when purchased. You can't buy anything for that cost now, let alone anywhere to put it. I seriously doubt this is what anyone thought of when they said "The American Dream" years ago. Things have progressed so disproportionately over the years, that it is scary. Going from just over a years pay, to 6 to 30 times that just to simply put a roof over your head... Yep, that's the American dream we have today... More like a nightmare, that somehow has been passed on as normal.

@@wowzers6178 No he’s somewhat correct, but the actual origin of the problem came about in 1913 when we left the gold standard, and was complete during Nixon who took us off the gold standard entirely. Democrats and Republicans are financially backed by the same rich donors. The real problem that caused this was greedy rich banksters overtaking our political system. However what’s truer than that, is that it’s OUR fault for not following the constitution and standing up against them. But everyone is so concerned about their political party preference, that we chose to believe all the lies and fight ourselves instead.

In Vancouver Canada where I am from you would pay 300k to your architect and the city in fees/deposits before you even broke ground. Finished homes run around the $500 a square foot and up to build. One project I worked on the client spent over $4000 per foot to build it. Houses cost about $1200 a square foot to buy in the less desirable areas of the city and well over $3000 in the nicer areas. There is also so much red tape and regulations that houses (Especially the most expensive ones) often take 5-6 years to complete from submitting the drawings. Now we have a housing shortage because nobody wants to go through the nightmare that is building a house in my city.

Landscaping, 2nd garage, etc and now we are up around $1,000,000 to build a 2000 sq foot with basement on 2 acres. Bought a 3 year old house at 800K and we won't look back.

@GhostZodick 2 года назад

I say the government have no rights to charge significant amount of property tax simply because the market went crazy. If a person bought the property 20 years ago, and his income didn't increase as much as the property price, he should not be taxed based on current market price. He has a right to maintain his lifestyle.

I totally agree. I'm a builder and have made very good money building homes for other people. But much like a chef that shares recipes for people to use when cooking at home, the "owner builder class" is about giving people the option of "cooking their own meal." Building a home is much more complicated than cooking most meals, but it is something that people should have the option to tackle themselves if they so choose.

You can't accomplish these ratios paying a middle man (GC).

I'm working on my third home this year (General Contractor / Builder in Texas) where the Homeowners were the acting General Contractors on their new custom home construction project. In every case no matter how many RU-vid videos they watched or books they read it did not work out well for them in the end. In two of the three cases the homeowners are out of money and their homes are not completed and what is completed was not according to plans they purchased. My advise to people who are thinking of acting as their own General Contractor is to figure out how much money they can afford to lose if things go bad and still have enough money to hire help and complete the project. If you can't afford to lose much or any money hire an expert who does this everyday for a living, hire a General Contractor / Builder, it's well worth what they charge.

I built 4 spec homes in AZ between 2016-2017....The average cost to build was around $78 a sq ft...minus the land and permits....I subcontracted everything out except the plumbing, painting and landscaping..

Life long builder here and it doesn’t work like this, average is $200-$300sf even using Menard’s materials. Just saying. If you get the kids in the neighborhood @$10 hr and one guy making $20hr, maybe your price 20 years ago at $130sf could work. Wish everyone the best and good luck as your own GC. Better to get the cheapest local contractors that build dozens or hundreds a year and then see what they are selling those same houses for and you will be able to determine your local market. Cheers

Good morning. I’ll like to know if I can build a home base on concrete blocksin Houston Texas. Concrete blocks are cheap now

general contractor here. if someone quotes you $300k to build that entire house, run from them, because once they start, the "unexpected" expenses will bring the total cost to about $700k. he quoted the lowest quality materials, perfect weather, and ZERO overhead, just as an example, the foundation alone will be about $80k and not $45k unless you do the excavation yourself and there's no old structure on the property that needs demolishing. another example, what happens when your roofers can't work because it rains for a week and now you have the entire wooden structure soaked? the prices he's showing are a fairy tale

Would really love to see the floor plan of the first house if possible?

Is it worth hiring a general contractor or is that something anyone can do on their own? Just wondering what can go wrong.
