Looking for affordable land—any hidden gems?

I've been casually looking around for a piece of land to eventually build a small cabin or maybe just have as a getaway spot. Checked out some listings online, but prices seem kinda steep lately, you know? A friend mentioned auctions or tax sales might be worth checking out, but I'm not sure how reliable those are. Has anyone here actually found decent land through less obvious channels like that? Curious if it's worth the hassle or if I should stick to traditional listings.

Good points, slopes definitely have their surprises. But honestly, with some creative planning and maybe a bit of DIY spirit, you might turn those hidden costs into cool design opportunities... just gotta stay flexible and keep an open mind.

Totally agree, slopes can really spark creativity. But have you thought about drainage? A friend built on a hillside and ended up spending extra on retaining walls and drainage solutions... something worth factoring in early.
