BUILDING COSTS

Clear from the start

WHAT IS YOUR PRICE PER SQUARE FOOT?

This question comes up often—and understandably so. However, a simple “$XXX per square foot” estimate is rarely a reliable way to budget for a custom home. Such figures are typically based on past projects and broad assumptions, but may not reflect the unique details of your build, inflation, or market adjustments. The homesite, architectural design, structural requirements, material selections, mechanical systems, and level of finish all play a major role in the final cost.


At its core, price per square foot is simply a mathematical result—the total cost to build divided by livable square footage. Nothing more.


For discerning homebuyers, only a transparent, project-specific analysis reveals the true cost of building well. To discover what your Genuine Custom Home will realistically require—schedule your private consultation today!

WHAT IMPACTS PRICE PER SQUARE FOOT?

Amenities

From bespoke cabinetry and countertops to luxury appliances, premium flooring, lighting, plumbing, hardware, roofing, windows, doors, millwork, and every finish detail, integrated technology and all mechanical systems.

Design Complexity

Factors like the overall shape and footprint, ceiling heights, structural spans, conditioned versus non-conditioned space, number of stories, detached structures, and intricate roof or façade designs — all influence building costs.

Site Conditions

Homesite preparation—including foundation work, grading and drainage, driveways, setbacks, and utilities—along with soil conditions, topography, views, and regulatory requirements, must all be carefully evaluated.
