We have a few vacant lots in Lehigh Acres and Alva. I wanted to see if anyone could give me rough estimates on $/sqft. to build new single family houses in that area.
Single level, 1500-1700 sqft, block, both budget and midgrade finish out options.
Up in TN we saw builders costs go from $70'ish a few years ago to over $85/sqft. now. What does it look like in Western FL?

From the little bit of chatting I have done with builders in South Florida you are looking at over $100/sqft and it was more so $125 and up for builds similar to what you mentioned.

Hey @Jesse Blaine
I am in the Tampa/St.Pete area. Most builders here are quoting between $90 a foot at the lowest to about $125 a foot with most most being at about the $100 a foot range.
