I'm interested in building a custom home within 45mins. to an hour from Nashville. I need good schools. I have 2 children, 1 with special needs. We are looking for a piece of land (3-5 acres) not to far from everything. My husband and I are not real familiar with TN.

TR is correct that you need to provide more criteria in order to give you any reasonable idea of the cost of a custom home. Are you talking custom from the ground up where you involve an archetect to design something unique or are you talking about using an existing design with some modifications to it? What type of materials are you looking at? What quality of materials are you looking at? Are you looking for craftmanship or just your standard builder? What infrastructure would be needed in terms of water, sewer, roads, etc. Depending on your criteria your cost could be anywhere from about $125 per square foot to over $500 per square foot.
