Stop to Figure Lester Pole Buildings – Costs and the Effect on Your Property Values

Building projects taken on by Sapphire Construction these days include unique Lester pole buildings. The customized pole barns are large, careful purchases. During each journey, our clients weigh many variables that affect both the building costs and long-term property values. We would like to share with you some important questions our clients are asking.

Cost to Build Lester Pole Buildings

Costs of pole barns vary along a handful of major aspects. These key components affect the cost. Some of the cost may be balanced out by your increased property values and we will discuss that later. An area manager for Lester Buildings boils it down to the following five aspects:

1. Building Use
2. Building Size
3. Building Location
4. Building Longevity
5. Building Aesthetics

Use and Size – What is the building going to be used for? A large commercial building is obviously more expensive than a shed. And insulated building will cost more than a cold storage building. A two-story building may cost more to build up and gain square footage, but the smaller footprint saves in other ways.

Location – The location determines costs because of several factors. Which building location requires more earthwork? Which one has challenging topography and drainage? Are utilities available? Does the soil need to be mitigated? Are there trees to remove?

Longevity – Lester Buildings are engineered to last a lifetime. Are you looking for a building that will indoor Colorado weather over the many decades?

Aesthetics – When it comes to the outer appearance of a pole barn, do you want it to have a clean warehouse look, or would you like some curb appeal? Adding porches, overhangs, lots of windows and doors will increase the cost. Bells and whistles like cupolas and wainscoting also increase the cost. To keep the price down, there are many things you can do with color and lighting.

Decisions and Property Values

Some clients are not interested in thinking about selling any time soon while others may be. What we do know is that property resale values can be increased by thinking big. Size matters, especially when it comes to resale value. If your site and budget allow, build a slightly bigger structure than you initially planned” explained in “What should I know about buying a pole barn?” at LesterBuildings.com.

The price does not have to increase too much but an extra grand could give you a better return on your investment. The experts say 12-foot high doors are in demand, versus a 9-foot or 10-foot overhead door. So, consider adding a little more space as you are able.
