Planning to construct a new house and curious about the potential expenses? Generally, you could be looking at costs ranging from R6,000 to R20,000 per square metre, depending on several fluctuating factors.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n For additional info on the cost of building a new house please read the rest of the article or contact Local Pros today and a vetted partner in your area will contact you shortly for a personalized quotation.<\/p>\n\n\n Follow the links for pricing on of Building related services:<\/p>\n\n\n\n Understanding these factors will help you manage your budget and expectations as you embark on your home-building journey.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The type of materials you choose greatly influences the cost. Standard quality materials could cost around R5,000 to R10,000 per square metre. However, if you opt for high-end luxury materials, the costs can skyrocket to R20,000 per square metre or more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The location of your future home plays a significant role in the overall cost. Land in prime locations can range from R1,000 to R3,000 per square metre. In contrast, in less developed areas, the cost can be significantly less.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The complexity of your house design and the labour costs in your area also play a substantial role in the total cost. On average, labour and design account for about 25-30% of the total construction cost.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Permits and taxes are an unavoidable part of the construction process. These costs can vary based on the size and location of the project, but on average, you can expect to set aside about 1-5% of your budget for these expenses.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The size and complexity of the house significantly affect the final cost. Larger and more intricate designs are naturally more expensive. For instance, a 250-square metre house with a simple design might cost around R1.25 million, while a house of the same size but with a more complex design could cost upwards of R2 million.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Costs for 50m2, 100m2, 150m2, and 200m2 Houses<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n It can be quite a daunting task to find the right contractor for building your new home.
