Hi Folks,
I'm following this forum over the last few weeks as we are bidding on a house that will need considerable work assuming we get it at the right price. ( South dublin for info)
So I'm just trying to do up figures a few things the basic assumption I'm going with from some threads I have read are
Retrofit 1500 a sq/metre
What quality of finish is that?
Would it include windows doors, new heating system and full rewire?
150 sq metres = 225k
New Extensions 3500 a sq metre
New single story kitchen extension and new bedroom over the garage? Looking at 40 sq metre kitchen and 20 sq metre bedroom with ensuite.
May look at doing the attic at this time as you will be in the roof.
210K
Then I assume we need to add other costs also like
Architect: I see quotes of 7%- 11% of build going by above 30K
Engineer: what we talking 10K
QS: Not a clue any ideas..
Ouch I hope my figures are way off as it seems madness but as I write this I'm looking at 500k before i'm finished. I think I may stay put as current house didnt cost that..
regards
kev.
