re: Building cost / sq. Ft.

Prices all over the map in here and I'm assuming because of the living vs total. I've always seen it as per living sqft.

Two friends just self contracted a build and are right around $105-110 living, not including land or site prep work (tree clearing, dirt work, etc.). No labor done themselves.

I'm about to start building and am anticipating $115/sqft self contracted.
