Information on building costs

Hi all - looking for some general information on building costs in Austin. 

I'm looking to move here and the first purchase will likely be a single family home as a primary residence.

I have three options:

1. Buy something ready to move-in

2. Buy a fixer upper

3. Buy land or a complete tear-down candidate.

Whats missing for me is the approximate timeframes and costs of construction and rehabilitations in Austin. Does anyone here have a sense of that?

I'm sure that part of the response will be "it depends on location and type of build" - I'm just looking for a range right now so I can figure out what would be the best strategy.
