2 Replies and 3769 Views Coastal Apartment Reconstruction Cost Experience  3769  2 Started by  nixonjf I'm finding many apartment owners/managers insuring their complexes&160;uniformly at&160;$55/ Net SF, which is equivalent to ~$40/Gross SF: Standard 2-3 story wood frame apartments, 10-20 units per building, 200-250 units per complex.

14 Replies and 7968 Views Productivity Benchmarks for Time & Expense  7968  14 Started by  jstock I recently got scolded by my IA Company for 'over billing' on at Time & Expense sheet.
