    Hi all,

    Does anyone know roughly how much a Quantity Surveyor is likely to charge on 7 town houses? Ball park will do.

    Cheers,

    Dan.

    They will probably charge between $400 – $500 per property

    Hi Dan,

    It depends on where they are, how similar they are, and whether we can get access to all 7 on one visit.

    The price could range from $330 to $440 each.

    Sorry, just realised how unclear my question was. I meant a QS to prepare costing to get the construction loan (ie. the townhouses would not be built).

    So it’s a Cost Plan you’re after i.e. an estimate of building cost.
    It depends to an extent on the nature of the development. Naturally it costs more to work out construction costs on a high end property as opposed to lower end.
    You’ll need plans and possibly engineering drawings if there is anything tricky. For accuracy, you’d also need to have some idea of the fitout quality.
    I imagine you’d have to pay a QS $700-$1,000 in total.
