Austin Builders

Hello BP!

I'm working out the details on a contract for a scrape and build in south Austin 78704 and was curious as to what the builders in the area are paying $/sf for their new builds.  I will be wholesaling this deal so if your numbers match up with mine this could be a good opportunity for you in 04.

Welcome to BP. I don't have an answer for you, but maybe @Lynn Currie will help you out, she's a builder in the area. Good luck.

Thank, @Karen Margrave!

@Ronnie McClain as always, it depends on the lot, specific location, etc. Feel free to send it my way.

Hi @Lynn Currie,

It's been a while, hope all is well in life and business :)

It's 78704 just south of Oltorf in-between Congress and 1st st.  Great area although not the areas like Tarrytown that you prefer, but if you can lower your build cost to accommodate for the neighborhood then the returns look good.

Opening escrow later this afternoon and I'll send the details out.
