Once you have found a lot, designed a home plan and specified what you want in your home its time to estimate its cost. We will summarize all the project costs including profit & overhead into an Initial Project Estimate (IPE). This amount typically includes lots costs, plan costs, construction costs, allowances, commissions, interest, legal, administrative costs, builder profit and any other project specific costs. We’ll use preferred vendor pricing which we have negotiated with sub-contractors when calculating your estimates.
