Construction Costs on 30a

[JoshMclean]

I know several builders in Watercolor and have looked into having a home built. My father is a builder and I handle his payables so I know the costs to build around here. Builders waste a lot of time just to get qualified to build in Watercolor. Do you think that they do this because it is not profitable?

Just to let you know, landscaping anywhere reaches into the thousands.

I know of builders in Watercolor that are just making it even with some sales right now. I am sure in the past big profits were made but that was everywhere........ IMHO
I guess it just matters what subs you use and the price you paid for your lot.

I'm not talking about spec homes. I'm talking about what builders are charging.

Landscaping is very high in this area. Just look at the soil. The landscape is changing. I still think about old days..

Actually qualifying was never a problem and yes it is profitable or we would not build in Watercolor and the fact that we love the "community" also helps, but the red tape dealing with St Joe is a whole other issue and a very costly venture. That is my point.

We have built in several other communties in sowal and the price for landscaping never came close to WC.
