The cost of building a log home has many variables. It depends on which state you live in. The cost factor will change if you hire a contractor or if you build it yourself. Some other factors like how much square footage, will it be built on a slab, and do you want a crawl space, what type of ceiling? The list goes on and on.However to give you a rough idea, let’s compare the same cost of a log home in three different states. With one home on the east coast, one in the Midwest and one on the west coast.In Maryland, the cost for a two thousand square foot home built with cathedral type ceilings, crawl space and standard appliances would cost around one hundred and ninety-two dollars. This estimate includes the fact that you would not hire a contractor. The same log home in Kansas would be about five thousand dollars less. A similar log home in California would be around one hundred and ninety-eight thousand dollars. These are very general estimates. The cost of log homes really does depend on many factors. Once you determine the size and model you want you can expand to thinking about the details.
