how much $$??
I am in the beginning stages of building my home. How much should I expect to be charged by a GC per sq ft to build?

I'm in the process of building a house in Delcambre (30 min south of Lafayette) and I'm paying right at $86/sq ft.

All the quotes I am getting is between 110-125 sq ft.

120-130+ around here finished off nice (including lot)

thats a broad question. depends on a lot of factors, especially finish and trim items

I already own the lot. Not sure how much that would reduce the per sq.

The price I'm giving you is for the house only, I already paid the lot. 1566 sq ft, 3 BR, 2 BA w/ an office. Exterior is siding with ar****ectural shingles. Tile, laminate and carpet on the floors. 9 ft ceilings throughout the house w/ cathedral ceiling in the living room. House is on a slab so that reduces the cost a little bit, it also doesn't have a carport, just a parking slab that I'll be putting a metal cover over.

I'm building too........I'm right at $88 sq ft. There's alot of people around BR that's paying around $100 sq ft.

Just from the outside is one of the reasons for being at $100 or more.......several different roof lines......that's alot of work.

If you are contracting it yourself, talk with the local lumber yards and you can work out a deal with them on everything. No so with the national branded lumber yards. |
