In addition to the purchase of your home and property, there is work that must be performed "on-site" to prepare your land for your home, to connect your home to existing utilities, and to build items that can not be constructed before the arrival of your home. This worksheet is designed to give you a very rough estimate of how much you can expect to pay a general contractor to perform various aspects of your on-site work. The figures represent the price that would be charged by a third party General Contractor and typically include the costs of building permits. You may save money by contracting certain jobs for yourself.
