Important Luxury Development Disclaimer:
This calculator is intended for preliminary development feasibility and
educational analysis only. The regional construction multipliers and
cost-per-square-foot assumptions are planning assumptions and are not
contractor bids, appraisals, lender commitments or guarantees.
Luxury construction cost varies significantly based on architecture,
site conditions, land value, structural complexity, materials,
subcontractor availability, amenities, pools, elevators, landscaping,
local codes and finish quality.
Rental income, vacancy, appreciation and future sale prices are also
not guaranteed. Developers should verify land value, zoning,
construction costs, market rents, comparable sales, absorption,
financing and tax consequences before committing capital.
