A clearer first estimate

Plan Your Home With Confidence

Get a quick estimate for a completed SEED home rather than only a shell.

Choose your home size and finish level to see a realistic starting price.

SEED Homes LATAM also works with custom, conventional, hybrid, and site-specific homes, while this calculator uses factory-built examples as a practical pricing starting point.

Read more about what is included

Building a home can feel overwhelming, especially if you are doing it from overseas or building for the first time.

SEED Homes aims to simplify the process, guide you through each step, and help you make clear decisions without unexpected costs.

Our aim is to remove as much uncertainty as possible by helping you understand the process, the likely costs, and the decisions that need to be made before construction begins.

If your project does not fit the calculator examples, we can discuss it during the free initial consultation and decide the right next step.

Even the Core finish is designed to provide a complete, attractive and durable home, finished to the practical standards developed through our experience with Pan Pacific Interiors.

01

Select structural modules

Choose one or more modules. Additional modules use the current 30% reduction built into the legacy estimate.

02

Choose a finish level

Finish fees are flat by module count, not proportional by module length or square footage.

Next step

From ideas to a detailed proposal

The first consultation is free and without obligation. It is used to understand your property, your ideas, your priorities, your broad budget, and the likely direction of the project.

Read more about the next step

Possible layouts or early concept ideas may be discussed at this stage.

If you wish to proceed, the formal next phase is called the Project Development & Site Assessment phase.

Project Development & Site Assessment

USD $1,500 plus 7% ITBMS

If the project proceeds into construction, the $1,500 professional fee is credited toward the overall construction cost. The ITBMS is not credited.

  • site visit;
  • access, terrain, slope, and drainage review;
  • preliminary foundation planning;
  • home positioning and orientation;
  • utility and infrastructure review;
  • preliminary layouts and module selection;
  • interior planning;
  • normal engineering coordination;
  • preliminary costing;
  • development of a clear roadmap and detailed written quotation.

The free consultation does not include formal construction plans or a firm quotation. Those are developed as part of the paid Project Development & Site Assessment phase and the steps that follow.

Extra scope

What may cost extra

Every property is different. Most homes fit comfortably within the normal pricing model, but some sites require additional work. If that happens, we identify it early, explain why it is needed, and discuss the options before any extra costs are incurred.

Read more about extra costs
  • government permits;
  • municipal or authority fees;
  • applicable taxes;
  • third-party approval charges;
  • major excavation;
  • retaining walls;
  • slope stabilization;
  • unusual drainage;
  • specialist foundations;
  • difficult access;
  • crane access;
  • unusual logistics;
  • exceptional ground conditions;
  • specialist engineering;
  • geotechnical, geological, or soil reports;
  • delivery outside the normal service area;
  • premium upgrades and client-selected additions.

Delivery is included within the David, Boquete, and Volcán area. Delivery outside that area, difficult access, cranes, or unusual logistics may require separate pricing.

Optional additions

Optional add-ons

Your home can evolve over time. Some clients include these features during the original build, while others prefer to design the home so they can be added later.

Read more about add-ons
  • solar systems;
  • water storage and filtration;
  • outdoor kitchens;
  • decks, patios, and covered terraces;
  • air conditioning;
  • smart-home systems;
  • pools or spa areas;
  • carports;
  • storage structures;
  • higher-specification appliances, cabinetry, fixtures, finishes, and materials.

Planning to quotation

From estimate to firm quotation

The calculator provides a realistic starting point for planning your project.

Read more about the quotation step

Once we understand your property, your priorities, and your chosen options, we prepare a detailed written quotation describing exactly what is included before construction begins.

Nothing moves into construction until you have reviewed and approved the quotation.
