Construction Cost Reports

Certified Construction Cost Reports for Builders and Developers

A Construction Cost Report provides a detailed and independent assessment of building costs for development projects. At Propti, we connect builders, developers and financiers with certified Quantity Surveyors who deliver accurate and compliant reports that help manage budgets, support finance applications and ensure cost transparency throughout every stage of construction.

What Is a Construction Cost Report

A Construction Cost Report outlines the estimated or actual cost of construction works for a project. It includes all components such as materials, labour, professional fees and contingencies.
These reports are commonly used for
• Feasibility and project finance assessments
• Bank loan applications and drawdown monitoring
• Cost to complete and progress valuations
• Builder or contractor project management

Each report is prepared by an experienced Quantity Surveyor who applies current construction cost data and recognised industry benchmarks.

Why Construction Cost Reports Are Important

• Realistic budgeting and cost forecasting
• Independent assessment of works completed and remaining
• Confidence for banks and investors in funding decisions
