We understand how scary it is to not know what your home will cost or to be over budget with your design. With our accurate patented cost-estimation software, our easy-to-use service, and our detailed reports, we give you total control over your project.
In a 2021 Home-Cost survey of custom home projects ranging from $280,000 to $1,800,000, 94% of the projects were initially over budget by 30% - 40%. Home-Cost was then used to bring the projects under financial control by adjusting the design's scope and quality to meet budget.
Free estimate websites may give you the impression they can budget your house, but none will guarantee their results. Their goal is to sell you a house plan or costing book. Relying on faulty free estimates can cost you thousands later on in the construction process.
Cost per square foot “rules of thumb” are based on averages, undefined assumptions, inconsistent construction market conditions, and inconsistent scopes of work and quality expectations. Cost per square foot also excludes excavation, basement, garage, porch, site development, appliance, and other costs. Relying on these generic estimates will end in frustration and over-budget conditions. Home-Cost provides you the tools needed to successfully align your budget, design scope & quality expectations.
Our free cost-to-build estimator allows to calculate your home construction cost per SF. Try different home sizes and locations in the US.
Please note that using rough rule-of-thumb estimators such as average construction cost per SF will always exclude design scope and will never reflect design cost for your specific zip code.
Our free cost-to-build estimator allows you explore home construction costs per square foot (SF) by state. Simply select a state and enter the home size in square feet.
Please note that rough budgeting methods like using “cost per square foot” are general estimates based on averages across various design styles and they usually represent economy-level quality. As such, they won’t accurately reflect the specifics of your unique design.
