I looked into buying land and prefab (although not in WA), and some of the biggest costs were things like running power, water, sewage lines to the land (if not already there), building a driveway etc. ended up being significantly more expensive than buying an existing home, obviously ymmv. Another option is buying a run down, very cheap existing home and bulldozing it and then putting in a prefab.

Hey didn't thought of that. You might be right. Maybe if the land has good amenities like running water and shit it might be fine. But I'll expand my horizons to these shitty houses 😂 it might be a good gig

Call a local septic installer and ask them what the typical range is for a 4 bedroom house. Mine in King county is about $31k with design/install.

Call a local we’ll driller and ask them the typical cost for a well in the area of the property you’re looking at. Mine is about $30k with a nice pump house and water system.

If it’s PSE and they don’t currently serve your property and they have to run a “line extension” that’s on them but the transformer and running to your meter is on you.

I know grays harbor county allowed owner installed septic systems in the past.
