life and family. So it\u2019s no surprise that many people take on the epic project of building their own homes. When you decide to construct your own house, several factors can wildly affect the final price tag.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Often People Ask What&#8217;s The Most Expensive Part of Building a home?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Construction accounts for the largest expense when building a home, eating up more than 60% of the overall costs. While a finished lot cost accounts for 19% of the overall expense.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table><tbody><tr><td>Home Construction Costs<\/td><td>61%<\/td><td><\/td><td><\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Land Costs<\/td><td>19%<\/td><td><\/td><td><\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Builder Profit<\/td><td>9%<\/td><td><\/td><td><\/td><\/tr><tr><td><meta charset=\"utf-8\">Other<\/td><td>11%<\/td><td><\/td><td><\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><figcaption>Percentage Cost breakdown, Single Family Home<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>The largest component within construction expenditures is interior finishing, which accounts for 25% of the overall price tag. Framing is the second most costly element, accounting for 17%<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The cost breakdowns for these items range significantly depending on what type of house you want to build and where you live. In this blog post, we will discuss the most expensive parts of building a home as well as some other aspects that can increase or decrease the price tag! We will also go through the most cost-effective houses to construct.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div id=\"ez-toc-container\" class=\"ez-toc-v2_0_69_1 counter-hierarchy ez-toc-counter ez-toc-grey ez-toc-container-direction\">\n<p class=\"ez-toc-title\" style=\"cursor:inherit\">Table of Contents<\/p>\n<label for=\"ez-toc-cssicon-toggle-item-6729d88ea5c64\" class=\"ez-toc-cssicon-toggle-label\"><span class=\"\"><span class=\"eztoc-hide\" style=\"display:none;\">Toggle<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-icon-toggle-span\"><svg style=\"fill: #999;color:#999\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" class=\"list-377408\" width=\"20px\" height=\"20px\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" fill=\"none\"><path d=\"M6 6H4v2h2V6zm14 0H8v2h12V6zM4 11h2v2H4v-2zm16 0H8v2h12v-2zM4 16h2v2H4v-2zm16 0H8v2h12v-2z\" fill=\"currentColor\"><\/path><\/svg><svg style=\"fill: #999;color:#999\" class=\"arrow-unsorted-368013\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"10px\" height=\"10px\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" version=\"1.2\" baseProfile=\"tiny\"><path d=\"M18.2 9.3l-6.2-6.3-6.2 6.3c-.2.2-.3.4-.3.7s.1.5.3.7c.2.2.4.3.7.3h11c.3 0 .5-.1.7-.3.2-.2.3-.5.3-.7s-.1-.5-.3-.7zM5.8 14.7l6.2 6.3 6.2-6.3c.2-.2.3-.5.3-.7s-.1-.5-.3-.7c-.2-.2-.4-.3-.7-.3h-11c-.3 0-.5.1-.7.3-.2.2-.3.5-.3.7s.1.5.3.7z\"\/><\/svg><\/span><\/span><\/label><input type=\"checkbox\"  id=\"ez-toc-cssicon-toggle-item-6729d88ea5c64\"  aria-label=\"Toggle\" \/><nav><ul class='ez-toc-list ez-toc-list-level-1 ' ><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-1\" href=\"https:\/\/box5915.temp.domains\/~theralph\/the-most-expensive-part-of-building-a-house\/#Whats_the_most_expensive_part_of_building_a_house_Construction_cost_break_down_of_building_a_house\" title=\"What&#8217;s the most expensive part of building a house?
