Three all-in totals for a Perth 1 or 2 bedroom flat

The build price is only part of the bill. Each total below adds site works and the building permit to one of the build rows, all at their typical figures.

All-in buildRows used (typical)All-in at the typicals
Prefab 1 bedroom$95,000 build + $25,000 site works + $6,000 permit$126,000
Turnkey 1 bedroom (35–45 m²)$130,000 build + $25,000 site works + $6,000 permit$161,000
Turnkey 2 bedroom (around 60 m²)$175,000 build + $25,000 site works + $6,000 permit$206,000

Each total adds the typical figures of the rows named in our Perth granny flat table. If a builder's turnkey price already includes site works or the permit, don't add them twice; demolition, a driveway or landscaping would be extra.

What the second bedroom adds

At the typical figures, the second bedroom adds $45,000 to the build ($175,000 against $130,000), while site works cost much the same for either size. A custom 2 bedroom with high-end finishes runs $210,000–$320,000 in our Perth table.

Prefab or built on site?

A prefab or modular flat is built off site and delivered, so the slab, the service connections and finishing on site sit outside its price. A turnkey build is done on your block. Compare the two on an all-in basis, as in the totals above, rather than on the headline price.

Getting 1 and 2 bedroom quotes you can line up

Ask each builder for the floor area in square metres, the build price, and site works and the building permit as separate lines. That makes a 1 bedroom quote and a 2 bedroom quote comparable, and shows straight away if a turnkey price already covers the site costs.

On the headline price, yes: a prefab 1 bedroom is $95,000 typical delivered in our Perth table against $130,000 for a turnkey 1 bedroom. The delivered price is before the slab, service connections and finishing on site, so compare the two all-in.
