re: Estimate on Custom Construction

I just built a house with a builder. About 3500 sqft. No pool. Minus the land it was about $115 sqft. Our under roof is something like 4900 sqft.
Square foot cost is going to come down to what you want in the house. You need to find a plan first. Don't buy the plan before you talk to a builder about the plan.(usually these plans are on a website or page somewhere) We bought a plan first and it ended up having to be redrawn due to complexity and cost.

Thanks for the help. I would be super happy to be able to build for $115 sq/ft. Im assuming the company that built this house either still have the plans or can re draw them.
We love the layout of the house and will probably be changing minor things.
I guess my main question was if we was going to be around our budget, instead of going to the builder first and given a number we could do absolutely nothing with. Basically to see how realistic we were being. The number in my head i would be hoping to do it for was 280. With all quality mid grade interior finishes.
