I Have The Land On The Peninsula (slight slope w / Leveled areas) and architectural plans (2 story home (~ 2500 sq / ft)). I am looking to average finishes Have With The exception of The Kitchen Which Will Be high end. Does Anyone have any ballpark Estimates for Construction Costs were per sq / ft BASIS?

I just finished a remodel (almost complete rebuild) of a home in San Diego. It has a lot of custom appointments, but nothing too esoteric. But, everything is basically brand new. It's about 1750 square feet, and the insurance company said we should insure it for about $600,000 to cover a complete rebuild. So, you're looking at just over $300 a square foot. And, this makes sense, because I seem to remember it was more like $150 to $200 about 10 years ago when I was looking into building a custom home.
