Residential Vacant Lots - Page 52

Hi Mr Gerken, are there any developments near Branson or going North to Springfield, that are exclusively for tiny homes? I'm aware these exist in other States, ie Texas. Can you tell me what the average construction costs are per SqFt today? Thanks!

While there are some areas in Missouri where tiny homes are becoming more popular, there aren't many developments near Branson or on the way to Springfield that are exclusively for tiny homes. However, there are some communities and areas with flexible zoning that allow for them. We have a dedicated page on this website that includes available listings of tiny homes for sale. I'll email you the link and more information.

As for construction costs, the average cost per square foot for tiny homes today can vary quite a bit depending on materials used, level of customization, and whether you're building on-site or purchasing a pre-built model. You could be looking at anywhere from $125 to $250 per square foot.

Should we sell our current property before building a new one?

That decision depends on your specific financial situation, goals, market conditions, and personal preferences. Some buyers sell first to avoid carrying two mortgages, while others buy before selling to ensure they find their dream home.

what is the going rate for new construction these days in the Branson/Ridgedale area?

Depends! Lot excavation and finish selections can throw the averages way off. As of today, brand new construction homes average $180 a square foot, whereas a comparable existing home is $145 a square foot.

Looking for vacant land/lot to build our new home. Can you recommend some areas around Branson School District?
