AUSTIN, Texas, Dec. 23, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Rabbet today announced the publication of its Multi-Family Housing Construction Costs online calculator, a free, ungated tool that helps developers, lenders, and investors explore construction benchmarks for apartment projects.

The calculator allows users to select a U.S. region, enter project square footage, and indicate whether the development is urban or non-urban. Based on those inputs, the tool returns low, medium, and high benchmark ranges across key categories, including total budget, construction duration, hard costs, soft costs, and land acquisition.

“Early-stage budgeting and feasibility decisions often happen with incomplete information,” said Will Mitchell, CEO of Rabbet. “By publishing a free, easy-to-use calculator built on anonymized, aggregated data, we’re giving the industry a practical starting point for understanding the range of outcomes they might expect, so teams can plan with more confidence.”

Rabbet’s benchmarks are designed to reflect real-world variability. Rather than presenting a single number, the calculator presents ranges to help teams account for differences in site conditions, labor markets, project complexity, and local constraints.

The Multi-Family Housing Construction Costs calculator is available online now:
