I saw this on the TV this morning, that seems cheap really, but like you said, its all the foundations, sewerage etc that would need doing aswell, and the land of course

It's great idea, though I still think finding affordable land, and getting the relevant planning permission will be the hardest part, after having your house delivered in boxes.

Did anyone read about the two recent(ish) cases, where two people built a house and castle, and then hid them for five years in order to get round the 'five years then it's safe' planning rule?
