Hopefully soon I will have a very small house built (>700sqft). But i worry i wont have it built to my values inspite of my limited budget, including using sustainable and energy efficient building materials and features.
This article is a bit reassuring of my options if I can afford them, at least a long way down the road.

50 Years of Marriage and Mindfulness With Nena and Robert Thurman
Ms. Thurman had a small inheritance, and the couple bought nine acres on a hill here in Woodstock for $7,000, cleared the land and put up a few tents and a tepee. When the VW Microbus in which they had traveled through India died, it became a planter. Then Dr. Thurman had a commission to translate a Tibetan sutra. He saved $3,000 to build a house, Ms. Thurman said, “which was enough to either hire people and dig a cellar, or buy lumber — we decided to buy the lumber.”
They began with a post-and-beam cabin, sketched out by Dr. Thurman and added to in fits and starts by his children, other family members and graduate students pressed into service over the years. Visiting lamas urged them on. “A triumph of American do-how over know-how,” Ganden Thurman, now the executive director of Tibet House, likes to say. “My father is maybe not a master carpenter. His tendency is to solve problems with a liberal application of force.”
“Why do it right when you can do it yourself?” he likes to tease his father.
Robert Thurman will reply: “Why do it yourself when you can pay someone else to screw it up for you?” - source NYT

HOME REMODELING AND RENOVATION
HOME REMODELING AND RENOVATION SERVICES STEP BY STEP PLANNING
Initial Consultation: The first step in any home remodeling or renovation project is an initial consultation with a professional contractor. During this meeting, you will discuss your goals, budget, and design ideas, and the contractor will assess the scope of the project and provide an estimate.
Design and Planning: Once you have agreed on the scope of the project, the next step is to create a detailed design plan and obtain necessary permits. This may involve working with an architect or designer to create drawings and specifications, and submitting these to the local building department for approval.
Preparing the Space: Before the renovation can begin, the contractor will prepare the space by removing any furniture, covering the floors and walls, and installing protective barriers. This will help ensure the safety of your home and the workers during the renovation process.
Demolition: In many cases, the first step in a home renovation project will be to remove any existing fixtures, walls, or other elements that are no longer needed or desired. This may involve demolition of part or all of the existing space, and the removal of debris.
Structural Work: After the demolition is complete, the next step is to make any structural changes or additions to the space. This may involve adding walls, installing new beams, or making other modifications to the existing structure.
Plumbing and Electrical: Once the structural work is complete, the next step is to install any new plumbing and electrical systems. This may involve running new pipes, installing electrical outlets and fixtures, and making any other necessary upgrades.
Framing and Drywall: After the plumbing and electrical work is done, the contractor will begin installing new walls, ceilings, and other components. This may involve installing insulation, hanging drywall, and preparing the surfaces for painting or wallpapering.
Finishing Work: After the walls and ceilings are complete, the next step is to install any final finishes, such as trim, molding, and cabinetry. This may also involve installing flooring, tiling, or other decorative elements.
Painting and Decorating: Once the finishing work is complete, the final step is to paint or decorate the space according to your specifications. This may involve selecting colors, wall coverings, and other decorative elements, and applying them to the walls and ceilings.
Clean-Up and Final Inspection: After the project is complete, the contractor will clean up the site and perform a final inspection to ensure that everything is in order. Once the inspection is complete and all necessary permits have been obtained, you will be able to move into your newly renovated space. More Idea and tips

Whomst is Essex? Also are we talking about the cost of buying a house or the cost of rent or both? Because housing costs involve both, but they’re different things and the prices to rent vs buy similar places and the availability of renting vs buying are not completely linked together and sometimes which is cheaper or more available changes of varies between regions.
I can see how making rent cheaper by government decree might bring down the cost of buying homes as they can’t be rented for as much, but that doesn’t seem guaranteed to happen from modifying rent, especially in areas where there are very few renters already.
Homes are expensive because of landlords hoarding them for profit, not because of regulations.

Ground-up Construction vs. Remodeling: Finding the Best Path to Your Dream Home
When it comes to transforming your home, the choice between ground-up construction and remodeling is pivotal. Building from the ground up means creating a brand-new home on an untouched piece of land, where every element is designed precisely to your taste. Remodeling, on the other hand, focuses on enhancing an existing structure, bringing fresh life and functionality to spaces you already love. The right choice depends on your unique vision, financial plan, and how much time you’re willing to invest. By collaborating with an experienced general contractor, you can explore each option in-depth to find the path that aligns with your dream home vision.
Ground-up Construction: Building a Personalized Retreat
Ground-up construction provides an unmatched level of customization for those who envision a truly unique home. With a blank canvas, homeowners can shape every aspect, from floor plans and finishes to advanced energy-saving features, creating a residence designed around their lifestyle. This option brings flexibility to incorporate the latest technology and sustainable materials that older homes may not support. A skilled general contractor guides each step, ensuring everything from the site layout to the final fixtures aligns with your vision and meets local building regulations.
Remodeling: Reinventing Your Current Space
For those who are rooted in their community but crave a more functional or modern home, remodeling is a transformative yet practical choice. Remodeling allows you to elevate specific areas, such as kitchens, bathrooms, or living spaces, making them better suited to your needs without starting from scratch. By working closely with a general contractor, you can ensure that each upgrade blends seamlessly with the existing structure, meets safety standards, and brings out the best in your current home. This approach is often more cost-effective and quicker than building anew, making it ideal for homeowners who want meaningful changes with minimal disruption.
Weighing Costs and Project Timelines
One of the most significant factors in this decision is balancing costs with time. Building from the ground up, while allowing complete customization, typically involves a larger budget and a longer timeline, as the process requires multiple stages, from land preparation to final inspections. Remodeling, however, is often a more budget-friendly and faster solution, especially if the focus is on a few key spaces rather than the entire property. The scope of the remodel can also influence cost and duration; structural changes may require additional time and resources, while aesthetic updates are generally quicker.
Aligning Your Choice with Your Lifestyle and Goals
The decision to build anew or remodel often comes down to the home you envision for yourself. If creating a home that perfectly aligns with your long-term lifestyle is your priority, ground-up construction provides the creative freedom to do so. Remodeling, however, offers the chance to make targeted upgrades that improve both functionality and style without losing the character of your current property. A knowledgeable general contractor can offer valuable insights, helping you assess the potential of your existing home, clarify the scope of changes you’re considering, and provide guidance tailored to your timeline, budget, and zoning requirements.

In the post-war era, innovative builders like William Levitt slashed production costs and increased production rates by applying assembly line-like practices to the construction of massive new suburban subdivisions. This was the future of homebuilding.
Soon enough, however, the growth machine came to a crashing halt. Brian Potter charts this history at his Construction Physics Substack. Market conditions eventually led to a bust in mass-produced housing. Then came the rise of growth controls, land use restrictions, and environmental regulation.
With zoning codes limiting how much new housing can be built at one time, the size of home-building firms has fallen, reducing economies of scale and construction productivity. Building codes dictating how homes have to be built has further helped to close off innovative construction methods.
Those regulatory restrictions on new supply never went away, with the result being that the price of housing has risen in tandem with rising demand. Additionally, new technology that promised to automate construction tasks has repeatedly failed to take off.
Rather than becoming a commodity, home-building has stayed a cottage industry (no pun intended). Real prices continue to rise and housing affordability has become an issue of national concern debated by candidates for federal office.
In this context, Walz and Vance have decided to double down on the zero-sum nature of the housing market. They say we need to decommodify housing by preventing the wrong people from buying a fixed stock of housing.
This is exactly backwards. Housing supply is fixed by regulation, not nature. If we stripped away regulations on homebuilding, supply would rise and prices would fall.
