Scared to Death: How Stress Can Actually Kill You. Recently, a 30 year old meth addict named Ricky Lee Fowler was found guilty of starting whatâs now known as the 2003 Old Fire in Southern California, a raging 90,000 acre blaze that resulted in the evacuation of 80,000 people and the destruction of nearly 1000 homes.
The average cost per square foot to build a house in Northwest Arkansas is about $108. This means a 900 square foot home would cost about $97,200 to build.
All things being equal, it commonly costs 20 percent to 30 percent more for a custom home than for a new production home, according to Hudson. Construction of a custom home typically runs from $200 to $400 per square foot. In addition, building a new home can take months or, in the case of a true custom home, up to a year and requires extensive participation by the buyer in selecting design and product options, site visits and home walk-throughs.
