Why are houses in Park City so expensive to build?
Good question! The obvious reasons are the finishings. Here we tend to include many things as standard that you might not see elsewhere, i.e., Exteriors of wood and stone, Interiors with stain grade trim, wooden doors and windows, and upgraded fixtures and appliances. The not-so-obvious reasons are things hidden from the naked eye such as: engineering – all houses in this area are engineered for a seismic rating and all houses have to bear huge snow loads on the roof, climate – the long cold winters require heavy insulation, double glazed windows throughout the house and beefy heating systems as well.
