Location
When considering a self build home the location of the building plot of land is without doubt one of the most important factors. No doubt your lifestyle, location, type of build and your vision will dictate the location of the building plot of land. There may also be other important personal considerations before the decision is made on where you want to live.
A self build home gives you the chance to choose a location suitable for you, not the plots of land the large property developers have chosen. It is important to remain realistic in selecting a plot of land for sale. If the proposed building plot is situated in unspoilt countryside with magnificent views, then obtaining planning permission is unlikely.
Keep in mind communications and amenities access on your building plot of land - if your dream home is out in the country the additional expense of connection to, or alternative methods of electricity and water can quickly accumulate.
