It seems to be a very nice area. I think it would depend on what are you trying to build, a gated apartment vs SFH would make difference in such area.

Would building apartment cost diff a lot than building townhouses?

Wow, my area is much more expensive than that, I heard it would between $200-$300 per sqft + design and land cost.

I own a 6000 sqft lot which is allowed to build a ~14000 sqft apartment. The lot is near to an university so there shouldn't be any issue with getting tenants. I am doing some analysis on whether I should sell it after permit is approved, or build it and rent out. I built several SFHs before but I have never built an apartment. I was wondering if someone knows the details of cost to build an apartment? I am also willing to pay for things like cost sheet of finished projects. I'm in Seattle area.

Thanks Brian. Yes, MHA is considered. Do you know if building apartment would cost less or more than building townhouses in general?
