Building Cost Of A Luxury Cabin In Costa Rica

Рет қаралды 577,417

Күн бұрын

I am answering the most common question I got when I posted a super cut of this build on Instagram which was how much did it cost. The build was done is the southern Pacific zone of Costa Rica at the start of 2023.

How about the price of the land? Did I miss that?

@SashaJuliardD 3 ай бұрын

I didn't include that because it varies wildly. I also purchased this lot along with many other lots as a package deal. Each lot has different value because there is ocean view and lot size to consider. But I paid just one bulk price so it's hard to say. Its like if you paid $10 for an apple, a juice, coffee, milk and a can of beans and someone was like, how much was the apple?

OK you bought two lots so how much were those two lots ?@@SashaJuliardD

@@SashaJuliardD You would look at the receipt and it would tell you. Multiple lots would have had dollar figures to each, it can't be hard to give a ballpark figure on cost of land. Given where I think this is, I would guess in the realm of 110k. Unless what you built on here was sub-divided after or one of several structures on the same plot... given the fact this is a rental.

@greenriver1615 4 ай бұрын

Hi Sasha - well done! I strongly encourage you to add horizontal concrete "beams" in the ground that tie into the concrete pilings supporting your house. I used a similar construction method in similar terrain and each corner of my house is subsiding at different rates. This causes racking which puts great stress on the structure. Another thing to consider on your next build is ensuring the upper part of the house does not come into physical contact with the concrete bodega structure below. By building on pilings, it is easier to protect your house from termites and ants because regular visual inspection is a snap. When you have a concrete structure (bodega, bath house) contacting a structure on pilings, you make it difficult to inspect for ants and termites. And it becomes far more difficult to stop them once they find your house.

Wow thank you for this reply and these tips. I will make sure to consider that on my next one. The next one will be a concrete foundation

Hi Sasha, I love your house and vibe. Can I ask how much land that you have and the approximate town or location? I’m very interested, as I may be looking to relocate from USA in 2024/2025! Thanks ❤

Was thinking the same thing when I saw the concrete footings. Should be continuous. Was also thinking that he could have opted for materials to prevent termites. Well said.

@SashaJuliardD 3 ай бұрын

@@NSAKEY I will definitely consider horizontal beams on my next one. As for termite resistant materials, all the wood I used was pine treated by a company that makes a special process and treatment for this area specifically for the weather and insects down here.
