[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It’s very expensive these days. Unless you want a fugazi toll brothers looking house made of plastic and vinyl and garbage, expect to pay at least $300 a square foot. Building with natural materials like real wood, wood or metal windows, slate / tin / copper roof, and nice real finishes has gotten astronomically expensive. There are builders that will build you the toll brothers / Mc-craftsman / Mc-modern farmhouse for less, but I personally would not want to throw 7 figures at that not including the lot — much better to renovate a well built house unless you truly have deep pockets.[/quote] +1. General contractor here. Don’t get why some people spend much energy and resources to build a “builder grade” custom residence when purchasing an existing builder grade is often the most practical, cost effective, less stressful experience. Not worth it if you pay for a lot then cheapen the whole deal with an NDI, Evergreene, etc building. [/quote]
