    Default Is it better to buy the land and build (american)

    I want to buy land in a cheaper area of my city (sacramento, CA, US) and find the floorplan for this really beautiful house that's a historic land mark.

    My first question; Is this possible? And second; where do i find the floor plan?

    if it's a cheaper area, then why do you want to build such a nice property there. You don't want to be the nicest house on a crappy block. it'll kill your property value. it's better to be the worst house on the best block.

    I'm sure the blueprints are out there, but they are copyrighted to the architect or his firm. You'd have to pay royalties on it. Who knows what that'd be, if they even let you have them

    ^ Pretty much however ever much they are wanting to charge you and you are willing to pay.

    land loans are incredibly harder and more of a pain in the ass than a regular mortgage, but people do it all the time.

    That sounds expensive. Even in a "cheap" area.
