Seriously??  I’m all in on this, I have land I want to build on one day and it’s nice to get a first hand account.  Mine is more complicated and will need a well and very complicated septic system installed but it’s still pertinent to me.  If you don’t like it jog on.[/quote]

Thank you! I'm doing this because its information we wish we'd had.  We're learning as we go, and won't likely ever be doing this again-so lessons learned are wasted unless shared.

One thing we didn't have to deal with was well and septic, since we've got city water and sewer.  Still, utility connection fees were 8k.  I mentioned the topography testing as part of site prep.  That includes the soil testing as well as drilling bore holes to determine where the water table is.  I bet that's really important if you have to site a septic system.[/quote]
