Also asphalt prices follow much the same cuve as gas prices, and right now, asphalt is through the roof. On a recent project we paid $85/ton wheras last year we were paying in the neighborhood of $34.00/ton.
Although with that price tag, i would venture a guess that cost of land acquisition is the biggest piece of the pie, and all the things that go into construction costs and materials are the smaller slices.
