So in total, the low-end of the cost spectrum you can build a new 2,000 sq.ft. house for as little as $190,000. The average cost of most new construction homes is around $325,000-340,000. High-end new construction homes start at $500,000+ and go up to as much as your budget allowes.

House Building Cost Calculator provides a variety of construction options for you to choose from.

You can customize flooring options, number of bathrooms, roofing and siding materials, type of windows, add a garage or a deck, etc.

The calculator has a progressive cost per sq. ft. formula, so you can get the most accurate cost estimate.

This means that when your Total square footage is LESS than 1,500, the cost / foot gradually increases to account for additional expenses incurred by the builder, with fewer “billable” square feet.

Note that this estimated cost does not include the following:
Land, demolition or land clearing
Plot leveling / site work
Architect / house plans fee/ permits, engineering reports, and other paperwork

On average these miscellaneous costs can range between $15,000-30,000, excluding land and demo works.

Even thought the online calculation is available for the convenience, it is more precise when you get the estimate from the construction company directly.
