About these costs: ranges are compiled construction-cost estimates for a defined 1,500 sq ft eastern-Connecticut reference home, adjusted to each state using Bureau of Labor Statistics construction-trade wage data (BLS OEWS, May 2025). They are planning estimates, not a quote, and do not claim per-metro material precision. Last updated June 2026.
