I am planning to build a 2 story apartment the measurements are as follows: 15 foot front x 50 feet deep. It is located in Central Ocotal and the property has a water connection already installed. I want to build with brick and tiled roof. The facade would look something like this. Any body have an idea of the building total building costs of such a project?


A lot of questions
will need to be answered before anyone can give you a realistic price.
The first question that comes to mind is: Why spend the money (And headaches) on a tiled roof when you are planning to hide it behind a facade?
Why use brick and not concrete blocks that will provide greater structural integrity? Have you even considered using other methods such as Coventech?
Since you are planning on 2 levels you may really want to think about building techniques.
Depending on many factors that can change the final cost by as much as 30%-40% up or down, I'd say you will likely be looking at U$ 120K if you want something that is well built.
You'll be able to do it for less if you cut corners, more if you use really nice interior finishes.
