Ok so when you come to sell your New build property who is going to buy it. There is a tiny market for second hand homes. Most people who want that style of home will just buy a new build. Also from an investment point of view the shelf life is the same length as the morgage (25 years) so when you have paid it off it wont be worth anything. Hopefully you own the land its built on otherwise your screwed.
