mike c asked:

I am looking for a job that will allow me to travel more often and for long lengths of time. I know a guy that travels to europe a few times a year to weld staircases. He does well for himself and that is his only source of income. I like the schedule that he has. He works well under 50% of the year and makes more money than i do, with years less of experience in the construction industry.

Can I get out of a building construction contract and an agreement to purchase vacant land?

Liss 68 asked:

My husband and I recently signed a new construction contract along with another contract to purchase vacant land in a housing development that the house is to be built on. We are in the process of applying for the new construction mortgage and we have not yet been approved. Since signing the contracts, we recently saw the first completed home in the development. We are not happy with the quality of the work by our builder and we don't want to proceed with him. We would like to build the house with another builder in another development. The land is still vacant and construction of the house is to begin after we obtain our mortgage. In the contract for purchasing the vacant land, it's stated that the sale is contingent upon the buyer obtaining financing. As I stated above, we have only applied for the mortagage and have not closed on it. I'd appreciate any input on this matter.

Jason asked:

What is a recent controversial construction / development in you area?
Hey,

I'm doing an assignment on local planning controversies, which means any new development / construction or laws such as new parking restriction placed in your area.

I am choosing to find a recent controversy from overseas, so if you have heard anything on the news, in your newspaper about a new development such as a major highway or anything that is causing civilian protest please POST as much as you can here.

If you can, find news articles online or even have a search in your local newspaper or news site.

Cheers.

I live in an urban area and just found a vacant plot of land between two townhouses. I am interested in building a house with a cutting edge/modern design and eco friendly features.
