Site work is priced on the lot, not per square foot. Here is the checklist for yours.

Hi {{first_name}},

Site work on a {{acres}} acre lot with a {{flood_zone}} flood designation is priced on your ground, not on the size of the house, so no square foot number is honest until a builder has walked it.

Here is the checklist a builder prices for {{lot_address}}, in the order the work happens.

1. Clearing and accessTrees, brush, and a driveway entrance. Rural lots often need a culvert and a county driveway permit.
2. Pad and drainageFill to set the slab height. Flood zone {{flood_zone}} and your lot's slope decide how much.
3. Water{{water_provider}}. If there is no service at the street, a well is added.
4. Sewer or septic{{sewer_or_septic}}. A septic system needs a soil evaluation and a county permit before design.
5. Power and gasDistance from the nearest pole or line to your build site.
6. Surveys and testingBoundary and elevation survey, plus soil test for the foundation.

Site work is the line most buyers do not budget for. Working range once a builder has seen your lot: [RANGE TO BE SET BY JACOB]. Treat it as a range until you have a written number against a real plan.

Two things worth checking this week

  • Ask the {{mud_district}} or the county what service is at your street today, and what a tap costs.
  • Look at the survey or plat for easements and setbacks. They decide where the house can actually sit.

This is the part where having someone on your side of the table matters. We can tell you which builders price site work openly and which fold it into a number you cannot read.
