Estimating challenges
Estimating a residential or commercial project.
For a developer, every dollar in the estimate affects project viability and financing. Mixed-use projects, with retail on the ground floor and housing above, require costs to be separated clearly by use and by phase.
We price the structure, envelope, interior systems and finishes, and update the estimate at each design stage. The developer can then make design decisions knowing their real impact on cost.
For this type of project, Gestion Edem delivers an estimate organized by division, with quantities, unit prices, assumptions and exclusions clearly stated. You know what the price includes, where each amount comes from and where the risks lie.
Items to watch
- Feasibility budget from the sketch stage
- Cost split by use: commercial and residential
- Structure, underground parking and foundations
- Cladding, windows and finishes by unit type
- Estimate updates at every design stage
