Thinking about buying a lot to build a house on buffalo bayou. The lot is wide but not deep. There is quite a steep incline into the bayou. Worried about building because of the type of lot...sandy, eroding banks and occasional flooding...but unique view. My biggest concern is how much it will add to the construction costs to make sure that the house does NOT fall into the bayou. I've read that the erosion system has to be customized specific to the lot. Sounds extremely expensive and particular. Don't know if it is worth it. If yes, is there a builder in Houston who could handle this type of lot. Any thoughts or suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks!
