(B) Plans and Permitting: We provide the plans, engineering, and handle the permitting process as all part of our standard services at no additional costs.
(C) Permit Allowance: This includes building permits, and impact fees for school districts, fire departments, traffic, and parks. This is an estimate based on Placer and Nevada County averages. Depending on the location of your lot these fees will vary.
(D) Site Improvements: This allowance is to cover building a driveway, supplying water/well, septic/sewer, and electrical/gas services. For this estimate we are using the following values: Driveway: $12,000.00, Water/Well: $16,000.00 Sewer/Septic: $11,500.00(Adjusted for # of bedrooms), Site Clearing and Excavation: $9,500.00, and Electrical/Gas: $7,500.00. If you already own your lot and some of these items are already in place you can deduct them from your budget. Before purchasing a property, you should have all the answers to these costs as they can have significant impact to your overall budget. Let us help you ask the right questions.
