Trulia Voices: How much is it a square foot to build a 5000 sq. foot commercial building in Mississippi?http://www.trulia.com/voices/Market_Conditions/How_much_is_it_a_square_foot_to_build_a_sq_foot_-19630en-usAnswer by Dan Grimmetthttp://www.trulia.com/voices/profile/Real_Estate_Pro-Ridgeland_MS-617627/http://www.trulia.com/voices/profile/Real_Estate_Pro-Ridgeland_MS-617627/Amanda, Your question has many variables, and there is not an easy short answer. Cost of land, type of building including materials, finish out, labor, quality and other factors will determine the cost. It will probably be less expensive to find an existing building that will serve your needs than building a new one. You can start by finding a Realtor who can give you comparables on similar buildings in a location you desire and can connect you with a commercial builder so you can look at your options.
