Building in Daytona Beach: questions
How much does it cost to build a house in Daytona Beach?
Hivesta homes start at $105/sq ft for the house on a standard plan, before our fee (a percentage of construction cost, agreed upfront). Typical new construction in Volusia County runs $150–$180/sq ft. Land, site work (fill, well, septic) and impact fees are extra, and every cost is set out phase by phase before you build.
Do you build spec and rental homes in Volusia County?
Yes. We build spec homes to sell and build-to-rent homes and townhomes. Because costs are set out upfront and controlled through each phase, you can plan more than one exit: sell at completion, rent, or refinance into a DSCR loan once the home is leased.
Can I build on a lot in Deltona?
Yes, Deltona has many single-family lots. A free feasibility report checks zoning, flood zone and utilities for your address, and we price the home phase by phase.
