Turning your dream home into a reality starts with more than just a perfect plan. It includes designing a home at a cost you are willing and able to spend. M-T-N Design will contemplate all cost factors as we design your home. We believe that designing a home that fits within your building budget is one of the most valuable services we can offer.
When we say turnkey we are referring to the total cost to build your log or timber home, excluding land or land improvements such as septic, utilities or roads.
Other influences to your final cost to build will include the condition of the site, such as steep cliffs or remote access issues, and the local cost of labor.
The size, or square footage, of your design will have the most impact on your cost to build because size affects all of the other variables. Your M-T-N designer will explain how your layout will affect the total cost to build and offer ideas for getting the most from your space.
The complexity of a design can be hard to quantify since complexity is not as easily defined as other elements, such as square footage. The best way to grasp a design’s complexity is to examine the number of roof ridge lines, roof pitches, the number of corners, and the number, size, and type of windows. You can rely on your designer to help point out how the complexity of your design is impacting costs.
PrecisionCraft offers a range of log and timber materials to choose from. Your design team will help you find the product mix that achieves the aesthetic look you are seeking and fits within you budget parameters.
Most everyone has purchased a refrigerator or carpet for their home, so it is easier to identify with the cost factors associated with finishes. Finishes needed for a new home include just about everything that is not structural. Clients who choose our BuilderSelect™ or Design Build construction solution will receive a preliminary finish estimate to use during the design phase.
The best projects for the PrecisionCraft Design • Fabricate • Build construction solution are ones that are near one of our Design-Build offices, have a qualifying building budget, and for which we can meet your construction timeline. If your dream home is outside of these parameters, we would still love to design and fabricate the shell of your mountain home, via one of our other construction solutions.
