Pricing

This is one of the most critical aspects of buying any home and a log home is no exception. A typical breakdown of log home building costs is as follows:

• Log home dry in shell package--$40-50/sq. ft. average (depending on corners, dormers, porches, and heavy timber options).
• Plumbing and electrical requirements--$20-25/sq. ft. average
• Other finishing materials--$20-25/sq.ft. average
• Labor for construction--$20-30/sq.ft. average

As an example a medium 3 BR, 2 Bath home of 1,600 square feet would be figured as: 1,600 x $100. This would give you a rough estimate of your total home costs, but certainly varies depending on your choice of amenities. Therefore as a starting point, figure your basic home of 1,600 sq. ft. should cost about $160,000

Please never get just one log home company to price your home because many of these companies depend on fancy sales and marketing techniques to sell their homes. Even one of the largest companies is probably the most deceptive. They sell many homes since they are located on major interstate highways. Many excited customers walk in and love the features and floor plans. But they end up buying a log package of yellow pine. This species is not as high a quality as white pine or cedar, but none of their salespeople mention this. Don't fall for the pretty picture some companies paint without checking into the details of their products and service!

There are also many ways to reduce these costs; and if you order a set of our plans, then we can discuss the various ways you may end up saving $$$$$ thousands of dollars!
