What effort is required? You go down to the model home centre, pick a style you like, tell them where your vacant property is located, and hand them the money. The last bit is the only hard part. Give them some time to build the house. Done. Your involvement is required to a minimal extent, but that is also true when buying a used home.
If this were settler times then you would have to do everything, perhaps, but in this advanced economy others will happily do the work for you in exchange for money. You can increase your involvement, trading time for money, as much as you wish but it isn't strictly necessary.

- chrisseaton 4y agoDon't you have to find contractors, deal with unexpected situations in the ground, things like that? I only know a few people who built them own homes and it was a monumental effort for all kinds of corner-case issues.
- randomdata 4y agoIt really depends on how much you are willing to spend. The more you take on yourself, the more money you can keep for yourself. Time is money, after all. In my anecdotal experience, it does seem that things like finding contractors is a place many are willing to put in the time to save some cash. However, there are businesses who are full service providers for those who want to be as hands off as possible. You will pay for that service, of course. And, indeed, to bring this full circle, if you are already struggling to obtain the necessary credit you might not be able to afford such services.
