I’m gonna guess 650k -850k build cost excl land assuming you want nice finishes and a pool but not insane finishes. Shit like a terracotta tile roof adds lots of extra cost.
Is that for some lennar homes special stick built house? I was thinking it would be more like 300-350$ sqr ft which would put it in the 900-1.1 mill range for something around 3000 sqr ft for something custom. House won’t be near the coast.
Yeah that makes sense. I’m curious how much of a variance that is. I’m all for paying for money for honest people that do quality work. From my experience that’s a big cost differential but I’m ok with that - too many people trying to cut corners and do garbage work these days.
Holy shit.

. Foler is just being himself. Granted location is a big thing, but a lot of these fresh builds are doing stupid shit like 10 foot tall ceilings, or tier 5 sheetrock leveling with imperfection free mud/paint. etc.
250 is standard rate for a basic house where I have looked. Cost goes vertical from there. That's not even the worst part. Top builders won't build unless the projects are big money AND they have a 2+ year wait list. Upscale build has gone up almost 3x in a short amount of time.

think about where you are. For the next decade all construction companies are going to have as much work as they want. Hurricane rebuilding will drive the price of new home construction through the roof. Whether you can afford it or not, if you build in Florida right now you're going to pay about 160% what your house will be worth when built. Materials are already crazy high, there will be shortages in Florida of all the staples (2x4s, plywood, osb, shingles, etc), and it will become a bidding war.
Everything?!?! Can you put soft close hinges on my wife?
If you build now I would estimate near $400 a square foot. Not even kidding.
Now, another option is to buy modular home bits from out of state. Don't scoff, they do a lot of really amazing, beautiful homes with modular building. It also shortens the building time, and it takes things like weather out of the equation. Have a look at just a few modular home options:
You can customize however you like. In my state the companies that do this charge 90-150$ per square foot. I'm willing to bet that in the states near you there is a builder who will be willing to ship to you.
Just a thought.
Yeah I know it’s gonna be crazy pricey. I think at soonest I’d build in a year. Love the idea of building it in modular phases. Actually I wanted to design it as such since I don’t necessarily need a 4/4 now but would like something like that eventually. As mentioned above can you post links if you have any please. ThanksEverything?!?! Can you put soft close hinges on my wife?

Thanks. This would definitely be ideal. If I could start it off as a 3/2 and then make it a 4/4 5-6 years from now that would great. Maybe their architect can draw up the “final” result and work backwards making it modular. Appreciate itThese folks, while they don't have a lot of great floor plans online, they're willing to design from scratch to meet your needs. Good prices, friendly people, excellent craftsmanship.
Probably the best ones around:
Clear Creek Homes
Really just do a search for local or nearby modular builders. Call them and ask if they'll do a unique floorplan for you. If not, find someone else.
Even with the best possible modular design I would strongly recommend against this unless your think your addition is a 5-10 years and maybe never project, if it is a almost definite 5 years then just do it all from the start. Project cost to do it in 2 phases is going to be a good bit higher.
