like 30 seconds I'll give you a gift and then you can click on that cat video
[42]
right next to me you are watching this because you want to know how to easily
[46]
price out your home build building a house will cost you anywhere from $150 to
[52]
$500 dollars a square foot depending on its size labor the location and the
[57]
materials you choose so if you're building a 2,200 square foot two-story
[61]
with an unfinished basement you already own a lot expect to pay anywhere from
[65]
$300,000 to a million+ to build it from start to finish. 150 to 500 is a
[71]
big difference you ask... and you'd be right. But you wanted something quick didn't you?
[75]
So if you're building a base-model nothing special or fancy a new
[82]
well-built home you'll be safe to estimate about 150 dollars a square foot
[86]
three hundred dollars a square foot you're getting into the nicer show homes
[91]
at the track builders build they'll have like the butler's pantry maybe a shiplap
[96]
feature nice garage doors here you can get into like the custom cabinetry
[101]
territory $500 a square foot on the other hand is where you get everything
[106]
custom high-end finishes high quality and typically things in a house you
[111]
wouldn't find in your stand at home like secret rooms maybe an
[115]
elevator or a copious amount of important finishes that you just have to
[120]
have take into consideration that I typically build and sell my homes for
[125]
about 500 plus a square foot there are many factors that come into play that
[129]
often people don't think about or that will get you above that range so there
[135]
you go there's a quick answer now for those of you who want to dive deeper
[139]
into costing though stay with me here you may want to take notes you may not
[146]
want to have anything planned but I will walk you through it and hopefully you'll
[152]
have a much better idea an in-depth idea after so there are so many different
[157]
factors affecting home building pricing that is impossible to have a
[161]
one-size-fits-all that works everywhere instead there are some important factors
[166]
that you need to consider if you want to dive deeper and get a clear view of
[170]
estimating your bills so I've broken these down into four factors first one
[176]
is location second one is size then labor then material so let's look at
[182]
location a hop market is exactly that things cost more it's more expensive to
[188]
build it's more expensive to buy and it's more expensive to hire builders if
[193]
you're in a hot market you have to realize that your labor costs the lot
[196]
costs and even material costs might increase substantially for an easy
[201]
example think about the difference in building a home in Orange County
[204]
California versus Saskatoon Saskatchewan a 3,000 square foot two-story home might
[210]
go for six on our ground in Saskatoon whereas it might be six million in
[215]
Orange County size building a smaller home will generally mean it will be
[221]
cheaper but remember that you will always have a base price to get somebody
[226]
on site building bigger might mean more complex construction uncommon material
[231]
and even specialized labor brings us into labor you should know
[236]
that builders are not all the same any builder can build you a house but
[240]
not everyone can build you a well-built house if there's labor shortages be
[245]
prepared to pay a premium to get your project move to the head of the line
[248]
material they say that 80% of the home is in variable meaning that cost is
[254]
pretty much the cost the same 2x4 costs the same in an average house as in a
[260]
luxury house and the same concrete used cost the same there too where the
[266]
biggest jump comes in the finishing costs that 20% of variable costed
[271]
finishes can mean the difference between a $900,000 build and a 1.2 million
[276]
dollar bill do you know what your market is doing in these important factors type
[280]
yes or no in the comment section below and ask a question if you want to get
[284]
more specific now let's jump into budgeting and actual build in this
[291]
example we're gonna go with an average 2200 square foot home in an average
[296]
neighborhood this is not a luxury build and definitely not in a hot market or
[301]
upscale neighborhood if you need me to break down the cost of a luxury build
[304]
let me know in the comments below and I'll do that in another video
[308]
initial costs for this one we're gonna say about $14,000 builders architects
[315]
designers engineers plans permits all things you might need in order to start
[321]
moving forward you can either draw the plans yourself buy them from someone
[325]
maybe online or have them custom made through a build or designer architect
[330]
there's a video that I made that I'll actually link down below about how to
[335]
choose the right people on your team depending on how crazy you get your
[338]
plans could cost anywhere from 3 grand to maybe twenty five grand
[343]
for this sample home expect about $8,000 for design drawing and stamping okay
[350]
then you have your permit which will run you anywhere from four thousand six
[353]
thousand depending on your location and size of the project site prep and
[358]
foundation for this we're gonna be about thirty five thousand dollars now we get
[362]
to the fun part the actual work first we have to prep the site we do this by
[368]
calling in the surveyors mark exactly where we're going to be placing the
[372]
house which allows us to know if we need to take any trees or move massive rocks
[378]
things like that they'll also stake out exactly where the hole needs to be done
[383]
for the foundation a surveyor can cost anywhere up to five thousand dollars for
[388]
the entire job maybe even more then you have to dig the hole for the foundation
[392]
this will cost you around 1500 to 2500 bucks in this example we then need to
[397]
lay out and pour the foundation in this example we have piles that go in first
[402]
followed by a nine-foot foundation wall at 2200 square feet this foundation that
[407]
we estimate around $35,000 including all labor and material make sure that we
[412]
think about any piles or peers that have to go underneath because that's gonna
[417]
greatly affect your foundation go always consider where you guys are digging what
[424]
type of ground how deep you're going and the possibility of massive rocks that
[428]
will slow your your digging down really all these things create more time and
[434]
money into your planning remember that the bigger the basement the more
[439]
expensive it will be don't confuse the square footage of your
[444]
foundation as much as the cost it it is when you build up so it's not the same
[451]
cost per square foot okay next we get into framing fifty five thousand dollars
[458]
so you have a foundation that's awesome now we have to frame a house on top of
[463]
it typically most of the holes will be
[466]
entirely framed out of wood this makes up the skeleton to the home that
[470]
comprises of building walls floors and a roof system this is gonna be a hefty
[476]
bill as the lumber package is almost entirely what your home is made out so
[481]
let's think about it we need windows and doors in this home we're gonna say about
[486]
$32,000 to bring this house to lock up and lock up is where no one or thing can
[493]
get inside the home you'll have to have your windows and doors and sole usually
[498]
this includes the shingles to protect the entire structure should it rain so
[503]
that rain can't get in expect your windows and door package to be around
[506]
$22,000 this number can vary greatly but a standard package will have enough
[512]
windows for your house to be white and bright and your doors will actually be
[517]
decent you can cheap out here don't get me wrong but in the middle of the winter
[521]
you'll feel it also consider that your shingles are gonna cost around 10 grand
[528]
to install on this two-story home next we've got mechanical mechanical is
[535]
electrical plumbing heating and cooling we're gonna say around fifty seven
[541]
thousand dollars fifty seventy five so for all of these these are preliminary
[546]
costs and then there are finishing cause we're gonna put them all together okay
[552]
so an electric an electrician might put a box in the wall to start with and then
[557]
he'll come back and cover it for your electrical expect to pay around twenty
[562]
thousand so they're gonna bring power to the house they're gonna run it through
[567]
with outlets lighting low-voltage anything else you need
[571]
this will include installing finishing lighting and any other finishing that
[576]
they're required to do next we got the plumber expect to pay
[580]
your plumber about 20 grand keep in mind that costs vary greatly in every area so
[586]
you could definitely go higher or lower depending on what quality you choose
[590]
especially on your finishing finally there's the heating venting and air
[596]
conditioning or it's also known as your HVAC this will be around seventeen
[601]
thousand dollars this ensures that you're cool during the summer and warm
[605]
during the winter exterior finishes for this home we're gonna say around thirty
[609]
eight thousand dollars so the exterior finish is very important a watershed in
[615]
BRE the bull membrane followed by a harder covering that protects your home
[619]
from Mother Nature now make sure that your house trap is sealed up properly
[623]
and that all openings that windows and doors and anything else are double check
[628]
to ensure that your installers are paying close attention because those
[632]
areas are where all the leakage Calvin exterior finish also includes soffit
[637]
fascia and eaves troughs to make sure that you water management is taken care
[642]
of next we've got a hefty one eighty five thousand dollars for interior
[648]
finishes now interior finishes is broken down into many different line items
[653]
this will include drywall insulation and poly for that we've said 20 mm paint and
[661]
wall finishes 15 grand flooring $18,000 now millwork which
[668]
comprises of your cabinets and storage in the kitchen bathrooms and bedrooms
[671]
that's twenty seven thousand dollars your countertops three thousand and
[678]
appliances is around five thousand see told you you're gonna have to write this
[682]
down just for a wine bed if you it's fine of course this is the extents
[689]
that can vary the greatest from person to person be careful as you move through
[693]
each line item movie from seven dollars a square foot to nine dollars a square
[698]
foot we'll wrap up a quick $4,400 difference want to put a lot of tile in
[705]
your house do you really want that wolf range quick expenses like these could
[710]
blow your budget so fast okay then we're gonna put in a provision called general
[716]
provisions and miscellaneous that's gonna be about twenty five thousand
[720]
dollars there are quite a few things that don't really fall into labor and
[723]
material these are normally things you might not think of where the worker is
[727]
gonna use the bathroom how much is the garbage bin on site gonna cost are you
[732]
paying for an on-site supervisor one of the cost that usually gets overlooked by
[737]
the bi wire or the build-it-yourself er is the water and sewer connection and
[742]
electrical generally the utility companies will choose the easiest
[747]
location of hookup but it but if you decide that you want it somewhere else
[751]
you might have to pay a little extra okay so let's total it up so as you can
[755]
see the total cost to build this 2200 square foot home is three hundred and
[759]
forty-one thousand and change or one hundred and fifty five dollars a square
[763]
foot can you build this for cheaper sure can it cost you way more if you make
[768]
mistakes here and there absolutely but what I hope for you in this video is
[774]

[777]
