    I know the answers will be greatly varied and loads of dependencies.

    in 2022 and going in to 2023, what is the rough ball park figure for building a house per square meter or yard? (east Galway, have a site)


    what is generally cheaper to build, a 2 storey or bungalow

    I know my questions have 100 variables and finish quality etc but just wondering really high level average figures.

    Thanks for that. After only making the decision a week ago to build and then spending the last few days teaching myself about all this and learning about all the costs and then the kind of hidden costs, I am seriously reconsidering the whole thing , A lot of hardship and money involved.
