If there was a guaranteed profit of 100 % every Tom, dick and Harry would have grabbed this opportunity .
I am sure that you are aware that there is no mortgages avlbl to buy a lot ( land ) . One has to have cash in hand to buy piece of land which is rare and quite expensive if its in city . Bldg a house by builder is a different ball game than individual doing it for living . It is definitely lucrative but quite risky requiring lot of efforts to put all bit and pieces in place as TIMING is most important factor starting from excavation to have the external walls built .

I am not expert but to my knowledge...

to build a house it cost builder anywhere between $90 to $120 per sq ft ( they use cheap materials)

3000 sqft house will cost them about $300-350K to build and that house easily sale for 700k - 800K

I think Profit margin is high - of course ( all depends not how much cash they have - loans are costly)






AshwaniG : if you see my post i said already ( it all depends on how much cash they have, loans are expensive)

But its very true big builders make lot more money then we think ... i met a builder in scarborough threw close link... their cost is per sqft $92.

this is no more game for small builders
