LaPalma | Whats the least expensive type of home to bulild on your own land? |

Two story.
You save on foundation, electrical, plumbing and roofing, including all of the tressing. Ranch styles are nicer, but two story homes are far less expensive to build per square foot. |

I know that there are kits you can buy that has the plans & the basics of the structure that you put togther, like Miles Homes. They are the least expensive to build 'cause you're doing your own labor, and labor is what costs the most. The next cheapest would be a mobile home, which are made much better now than in years gone by. Sometimes, you can get a repo, for a lot less than brand new. Some of the repo's are less than a year old, so aren't nasty. I would go online and see what kinds of kit houses are out there (I'm not even sure if Miles Homes is still in business), and see what you can afford, and if you have the skill to build it. If you qualify for a Habitat for Humanity home, they are the lowest cost of all homes, as they use all volunteer labor, and much of the materials are donated. You still pay a mortgage, taxes and insurance, but it's a no interest loan, and you're paying back Habitat for the materials they bought to build it. To qualify, you need to have a need for decent housing, have an income, and are willing & able to help with the build. In some areas of America, it costs the homeowner less than $50,000 to buy one of these homes, which are all up to code and very well built (I'm a volunteer, so I have first-hand experience). Hope you find what you're looking for. <*)))>< |

Frame or Stick with Vinyl siding is cheapest and it is also cheaper to build 2 story for additional square footage than building longer or wider (building up is cheaper than out) because the cealing for one is the floor for above. Building a basement would be very useful to finish it first and live there untill you have the time and resources to do what you want, you wont be sorry |

It depends on the building codes in your county. If there are none, gather some sticks and build a lean-to. |
