    How Much is it Going to Cost?

    The first question everyone has when they start planning a new childcare building or remodeling project is, "How much is it going to cost?". We go into detail in each video with an explanation because that is a very difficult question to answer.  Even for people in the real estate and construction industry. Land costs, development fees, and construction costs are always moving targets. On any given day, the cost for a 1-acre piece of land can vary greatly.  It depends on the location of the land and whether it is in a rural area or a densely populated area. It depends on what use the land is zoned for, whether or not it has already been developed, and if there is a large demand for land in the area. Not to mention that the popularity of a town can rise and fall like the tides of the ocean.  All it takes to shift the tide is news of a violent crime, or natural disaster, or on the other end of the spectrum, news of a large regional development coming soon.
