| The graph below was
prepared for the sale of some 295 new 4 bedroom homes in Port
St. Lucie from January - mid-October 2005. All homes were built in year 2005 and only non-waterfront, non-pool homes were considered. Every home had a 2 car garage. The graph reveals just what a basic 2005 single family home (not mobile homes) in this area costs per air-conditioned square foot of living space. The information does not just represent the cost of materials and labor. It is the contract sale price divided by the A/C Living Area as reported in the MLS. |

| It is also important to remember that a "smaller" home will have a higher SP/ACSF price than a "larger" house. This is because the fixed cost of garage, lot, HVAC, and appliances when divided by lesser square-footage yield a higher number. This increases the cost for small homes relative to larger homes. The trendline on the graph below illustrates this relationship. Basically what it means is "don't expect a 1600 sf home to have the same sf cost as a 2400 sf home. It will be higher. | ||
