Generally, the building lot has an emotional appeal to its owner based on a view or other natural features. The intended use, whether recreational or for a permanent residence, may also have an impact on the choice of lot.
Making the best use of the natural terrain for building is important, both visually and financially. Being able to put the right design in the right place is key to avoiding costly mistakes.
Before you buy your lot, make sure that there are no major obstacles in obtaining permits for septic, power and water, or unduly onerous restrictions on access to the site which may affect your intended building location.
