We may have the opportunity to move to a new state in 2022. Looking at real estate in the area where we would move, nothing has us excited - and we're sick of living in suburbs - so we're considering buying land and building. We wouldn't be able to afford a true homestead, but could get at least 1-2 acres.

Has anyone here bought a plot and built a house before? Any pitfalls to look out for? Would you build again or buy in the future?

Unfortunately, our once lily white town has had a construction boom and has changed hue considerably. They've also started bussing them in from other cities to shop at our stores, so our stores are selling shit products now instead of the previously high quality fresh foods. One way or another, we'll be moving somewhere within a year.
