RE: What are the infrastructure costs for a 5.8 acre, 5 home subdivision?


I need a ton of help but mostly conservative costs projection to build a  5 home subdivision, average lot 1.2 acres, longest distance to run electrical wires, water lines, gas lines, sewer lines would be 1200 feet, install a double road, fire hydrant, 50-75’ driveway from road to each house, 5 street lights, cable.  Anyone got a conservative overall costs and/or average costs for each lot to build this infrastructure?

What State are you doing this Project in? 

All cost are from local area Pricing,

You could call your local Construction supply company Like White cap or HD Supply. (west coast) or there is home Depot or Lowes if you have to. 

Also are you tying in to existing Storm Drain and sanitary sewer or are you putting in septic tanks and leach fields?  is this off an existing road and is there already Culverts or ditches in place for rain water to collect in or do you need to install All wet utilities and if so do you know the City and county requirements for water, Power, Sewer, Reclaim(effluent) Natural gas? What about the Meter set for fresh water and a plumber to tie in the water connection to the house ( has to be pressure tested and signed off by City/County Inspector)

Fire Hydrants need to be Chlorinated and tested for quality and leaks by Public works or Fire department depending on your local. 

  What about Transformers? do you have an electrical company that is going to set the T pads or have you purchased or got a price for the transformers and pedestals? 

Sorry I could keep going as this is What I Have do for 30 years This is My current field of work.

With out seeing the property or knowing all Linear feet of all materials and depth of utilities and soil conditions, equipment and personnel, import/Export, Subs, just to spit ball a price is not possible.

there are so many more things that are involved with what your asking for.
