Cabinets and flooring alone would eat up 6K pretty fast. I think your a little light on the interior materials. Cabinets and flooring alone would eat up 6K pretty fast.

My fiance and I are debating this prospect right now. She totally wants to find land and then build. I like the idea of being able to buy and rent right away, to help offset some of the payments. This would be our first property period. It's too expensive to buy in Toronto, where we live, so having a cottage sounds like it could be ideal. I like being outside the city anyway. I'm thinking that a decent piece of waterfront land (within a 3 hour drive) is gonna be around 100k, and then it'll probably be another 90k on top of that to build. Who knows? I really have no idea. That's what scares me. We'll be able to plunk down about 50k for the land, but will then need a pretty big mortgage to cover the rest of the land cost and the building costs. You can get cottages for around 200k and rent them out right away. Of course you can always build something you exactly want. We're just beginning to look at this, so we'll see.

It is nice and it seems comfortable to stay in. If I had it, I could use it during my vacations or any time I needed. I wish I could build and have a cottage like that.

However, having it done yourself is much more satisfying :) -Mike It’s not too bad on the price, but prices to hire contractors should be very cheap now.
