Building a Smiling Woods Yurt

[Asheville Yurt Company]

Hi Spaldon,

Usual construction costs run about $120-$150 per square foot for move-in but depends a lot on interior finishes and how much work you do yourself or are willing to manage yourself.

It also depends on your local labor costs of course. Keep in mind that the cheapest isn't always the best. Just look for someone who does what they say they will do, not take shortcuts, and don't do "deposits" for work coming up. That should keep you with relatively reliable help.

Many places you can be your own General Contractor if you are building your own home but be prepared for a pretty steep learning curve if you haven't done it before. It's not rocket science but you need attention to detail.

Good luck with your build!
