How much to build a wooden house
My 3 year TGF's mother lives in Chonabot which is about 30kms from Khon Kaen.
Like many people from that area she has lived for years in a 1 room wooden shack type of place but she has had to vacate it as apparently her late husband borrowed some money on the strength of the Chanote which she cannot pay back.
About a year ago I bought a plot of land of about half a Rai next to where my TGF's sister lives and until I can afford/want to build a proper house there I want to put a similar wooden type place on the land for the old lady to mainly store her stuff from the old place in as she sleeps in the sister's bungalow.
My TGF has told me that her mother has been offered a 2 storey 3 room wooden house by someone who has had a house built and she reckons that it can be had and reconstructed on my land for about 150,000 baht.
My question to any BM's who live in Issan is whether they think that is the right sort of price as I imagine that It could be dismantled and put up again in about 30 days and I know that labour is cheap up there.
Your comments would be appreciated as in usual Thai fashion this has all got to be sorted next week!!
