I am thinking about building a room onto family property. On average do u know how much it can cost? A room that can fit king size bed and double wardrobes.

Concrete or board? Will you need a bathroom?

It will be upstairs. So the ground is already flat. I just wanted a rough price of how much it would cost.

In Kingston area there's at least two building stores, one in Liguanea and one off Constant Spring Rd that you can get supply quotes from.
The most useful info I can give you is my own experience which is that my family acquired an unfinished house in St Thomas and it has the walls etc but the roof and one room on the second floor need to be completed. The builder said it will be about US $1500 (approximately J$150, 000 ).
Ofcourse, it may be more depending on whether we opt for luxury instead of the run of the mill which is solid since they use cement blocks. It's an 10x12 room and that was March for one of my sisters' house.

Okay. That sounds a bit cheaper than I thought it would be. To build on a room it cost $1500us? That was a normal size room that could fit a double bed, double wardrobes?
