I tell you what smart guy...you need to get educated. Go buy a lot in U Club and add up all the EBR permitting fees, traffic impact fees, sewer fees, construction loan interest, cost of house plans, THEN, price out the materials at a lumberyard, get a plumbing package, appliances.....break ground and subcontract it out yourself. I bet you would rethink everything when the cost come in.

I know the Rouzan house very well.
While I do agree that it was mistakenly overpriced as a FSBO, I think you don't have a clue as to what you want and the cost associated with it.

So you're trying to tell me that it should cost $200+ sq/ft to build in the U-Club with crappy materials? Seriously? How do I not have a clue what I want and the costs associated with it? My parents sold their immaculate Hays Town before the flood for $230 sq/ft. Coco cabinets, Broussard painting, Allen floors, etc. Are you going to compare the fricking rouzan house to a fricking Hays Town home? You have no idea what the frick you are talking about. You must be spec house builder, because that's the only reason you would get so butt hurt over someone pointing out how crappy and overpriced houses are nowadays

You tell me sport, what does it cost per sq/ft nowadays to build a nice house in U-Club or Rouzan? Let's say all millwork done on site, heart of pine and hard tan brick floors, cypress cabinets, 3 coats of paint, sub zero or viking appliances, etc. Go.
