Make sure to look into the utilities part also before you buy the dirt. We were told yea they are at the street. haha they did not tell us they were on the other side of the street. We are in for 8-9k to bore under the street to get water on our side. Electric is at the street, on the opposite side of the property so we are just under 10k there, and 15k for septic.
Oh and the well we could dig, well the water quality where we bought is not good and very very deep.
It been one suprise after another. But dirt with a house on it already. Save your marriage and bank account...

I did not micro manage in no way but I did hold them accountable for quite a few things. They fixed them all but I felt like it wasn`t my job to do their job.
