i am talking large builders Persimon, bovis, george wimpy Etc. Not John Wyne ltd. As I said One of the above would be able to build a house cheaper as they can get building materials at a low cost and dont need to pop to jewsons. 1/3,1/3,1/3 as been the standard for years any EA, builder property expert would tell you that. so if you need to build a house to be worth £300k you would budget the land at £100K and Building and materials at £100K.
I cant even beleive anyone is arguing with this!

strictly speaking however its not true

it tends to be

land 1/3
build 1/3
profit/overheads/finance/utilities/road etc 1/3

The rebuild price of my house is 30% more than the purchase cost.

So it is true on the land and build costs, I stated the other costs above why can you not accept my answer was correct! The bold items are seen as a build cost if you dont build it you dont put in the roads and utilitys.

PS rebuild costs for insurance will always be more as you will have to use John Wayne ltd as mentioned above.

.

because your answer was wrong

and mine was correct

when you take out all the other costs (finance/overheads/road/utilities etc) builders make about 10 - 15% profit

you laughed at me for this

yet you were wrong

Why do you persist in making yourself look so stupid! Questuion was how much does it cost to build the average house, answer 1/3 of the sale price.
Go back to school and un-tuck your skirt from your pants, people will tease you. Roads and utilitys and anything else to do with building are a build cost. If you were building your own house would you get them for free as you are not making a profit.:rotfl:

you really are stupid !!!!!

i originally responded to your statement that builders make 1/3 profit (can't you read?)

roads and utilities are part of the final 1/3 and generally not included in the build costs

stop making a fool out of yourself

you obviously know absolutely nothing about building houses so stop talking out of your backside

And finance and admin are out of company operating costs not COGS (Cost Of Goods Sold) You cant accept you went on a one man rant to make me look wrong but compleatly forgot to answer the OP's question like so many on here.
The only person looking stupid on here is the person arguing about somthing other than what the post asks and that my friend is you.
Put a mirror in front of your monitor if that helps.

theres a man i know that builds 2 bed bungalows for £60k - you provide the land he'll provide the materials and build it.

Jesus - you really are thick

i don't know if you noticed but this is an open forum where people make comments to other peoples comments - they don't necessarily have to be specifically about the original posters thread (bit like what were doing now)

what is it that you have got stuck up your backside that because i commented that builders make between 10 - 15% profit and not the 33% profit you stated you exploded with rage? - you really do need to calm down - people do not always agree - and please take whatever it is out of your backside

I was giving the basic 1/3rd rule somthing you compleatly disagree with but which is used by all builders in the UK.
You are talking Net profit, not Gross (like I was) but in terms of the post that is neither here nor there.
It is an open forum well done, but to help people it is usualy good to answer there questions.
I was not the person getting angry i was being helpfull It is you who could not accept all i was doing was answering the OP's question. I did not want to argue over it but for some one who trys to lay the angry card at my door you best look in the mirror again.
