Self building houses is the best way to get a home these days. Or at least a home you own. The biggest expenditure is the land, once you have that secured you can proceed to build your house. A land mortgage can be taken out to purchase the land, preferably at auction as property auctions are the best way to get cheap land these days.
What I want from a good house build is that the builders are qualified and have the requisite qualifications. If someone is going to lay the foundations, find out how much experience they have of laying foundations.
Bricks are a good thing to look at these days as it’s quite easy to get reclaimed bricks, that is bricks that have come from another property and are simply reused.
Good quality kitchen can really sell a house, I would say spend a lot of time and money on a great kitchen, that way, if you come to sell the house it will sell easily.
