I don't know anything about building house so I was wondering what is the minimum size lot I would need to build this house. I was thinking a acre, but that seems far to big. Do you know how much a acre of land sales for in Houston Texas?
Answer Emberly,
I don't do much work with new building. I would think (off the top of my head) you might want 1/2 of an acre. you might be able to do with a little less. Your builder should be able to help.
I'm sorry I can't help you with land prices in Houston. I am in the Dallas area. You should be able to call a local real estate agent who can help you.
