He needs your money, not an advice, 😁

Privyet, Sam. I wouldn't invest any money outside of the structure you already have built. I would make a couple rooms livable in the current house, get a working bathroom, electric, heat, rudimentary kitchen, etc., then just close off the rest of the house that is exposed from the elements and fix it up one room at a time as you can. You can always enjoy the same banya with your friends that you enjoy now. That 30-50k you speak of for the guest house could be enough to give you basic living in the main house. Adding another structure will make life more difficult. You may have to live more humbly, if you will, but it will be yours and I think you will find as the months and years pass, simpler will be better for you. The older you get, the less you care about looks and the more you care about function. Besides, that rent payment could be a mortgage payment. Better to pay yourself. I wanted a really nice house in my 20's and 30's. Now, I could live in two rooms with a functional bathroom and kitchen and be happy. Nice is overrated. As long as it is clean. The green space is very important, though. Just my two cents. Blagosloveniya.

Bought my house for 70 grand. When I moved in I was sleeping on a mattress and the rats used to come in a hole in the wall at night. I had power from an extension lead from my neighbours house. I was lucky if the half broken toilet flushed. 5 years later I have a new stove, electricity, and pluming. My loan will be repaired in another two years. Everything takes time. Life was hard but iv no regrets.

That $35k home looked big enough? Don't fall into the Western trap of "bigger is better". Then you can finish your bigger home at your own financial pace and both homes will add to the value of your property.

Bigger is better if you have a big family. One of the reasons why russians won't get enough kids is because apartments are too small and expensive if you want to have 2+ children. The recent law mandates at least 32m2 per person in newer apartments but those are small steps when you compare it to say Australia where the average house is 200m2

Sam, I agree with those who say make a small section of the big house livable, small enough to heat with a wood burner. Block the rest of the house off with insulation panels like Kingspan where needed. Look into composting toilets and camp showers that work on gas. It might seem mad but the money for the small house could be better used for to chip away at the big one. Living in your own house on such a lovely piece of land is the way to go.

There’s no need to have a lump sum of money to get the house done. Find a good plumber, get the sewage and water sorted. After that, get the electrical done. After that, doors and windows are most important because you need to protect your investment. Build your small house on the land you have and start slowly building your home. That’s my opinion from an American in Atlanta who dreams of living in Russia. Удачи

It's a great video, Sam. God bless you!

With this house "you got a tiger by the tail." Meaning you have to weather tighten that house ASAP and ideally have some heating system. So, windows and doors NOW. Plan your septic system, you have plenty of land downhill, that's good. Plan where to drill your well. I strongly suggest having a holding tank where water can settle and release hydrocarbons. And so on... Then start camping in your unfinished house.

Do the windows and doors to make sure it is warm inside during winter. Connect electricity to the house. Finish the smallest room. Organize small bathroom and kitchen. At least you will be able to heat this space with the electrical heater. Or you can even build or buy something like fireplace. And use wood to heat the room. Then slowly you will finish the rest of the house. At least you will not need to spend your money on renting. Use that money to finish the house. But just do it step by step. It will allow you live in the house and at the same spend smaller amounts of money to finish the house.

As there is always another property.. Ideally you should sell the house as is as you can not afford it and face harsh reality, and buy or build something affordable using the proceeds from the sale. But that means giving up pipe dreams, and in order to finish the main house you need a business again. You can try doing airbnb or hostel type business and also teach English online.

Your main expense is the windows to the side. Access (up) and shape. The front large ones - straps of wood and temp clear panes until you near winter. Plumbing, electric and water lines in w/ comms is priority also. You would be surprised how fast it clips along if you are there.

Individual construction is not regulated here. You built the house yourself according to your project and call the cadastral engineer. He takes measurements. By law, the cadastral engineer must complete the documents in three days. The engineer uploads the data to the Rosreestr accounting system on his own. The cost of these works depends on the area of the building. For a house of 200 sq. m. about $150. The owner uploads to the electronic database via the Internet: a technical plan of the house, a notice of completion of construction and a certificate of ownership of the land plot. Pays the state fee for registration of ownership in the amount of $20. According to the law, Rosreestr has 10 working days to register the house for cadastral registration and registration of property. In 2023, more than 110 million square meters of housing were commissioned in Russia. For individual housing construction in the total amount of 53%.

It's doesn't make any sense to spend money on a small house, to then spend even more money on a bigger house. I would just live in my VW T5 rent-free on the property and build the house in the meantime. That's the cheapest way. Or you could rent a smaller apartment, try to get a loan for the house, and let someone else live there and pay your expensive mortgage for a while. But spending 50k on a smaller house is just totally stupid. Don't put yourself into financial problems, just because you don't want to look bad in front of others. I know russians like to show off what they have (and often don't really have), but the stress is totally not worth it in the long run. You have a property... get a mobile home for 10k and then sell it for 5-6k. Then you would lose 5k. If you spend 50k on your tiny house so that your buddies can sleep there 20 days in a year, well then you lose 50k. Sorry for the rant, but people like digging their own graves.

Сэм, главное ели не сажай рядом с домом - их корневая система разрушает фундамент

Get married, move in with your wife, that way you can save money on rent and save to build your own house. Or order the installation of a small modular house on your plot, which is erected in a week. At least you won't have to give your money every month to a stranger for a rental home.

I feel you are on the right track. Build that smaller house on your existing land and use it later as a guest Banyan house. Build the larger home as you can see fit to do. The value will certainly remain and even go up as having a main house and guest house on the land is a huge benefit.

If you want to build and move into a guest house, buy a SMALL one. Gigantomania harms the feasibility of plans.

Lots of woods = free solid fuel central heating and free mushrooms. Doing it yourself will save lots of money. Many people spend their weekends building their houses and it takes many many years.

Loveley spot. To be honest, it looks more like a workshop than a house. perhaps you could turn it into a productive space with an apartment above? I would do that, finish the upper floor into a minimal living area. then focus on earning money downstairs.

Sell Porsche, buy a cheap beater (or small commercial van/box truck, so you can earn money with it and support your construction at the same time??) Take a loan and finish the house, to extend that you have heat, bed, running water, power. So yes, you will have to stay and play on construction site for a few years. The house a huge one for a single guy. I understand it is a dream 😊

That’s they problem, they are cold in winter

I would convert some of the big house into a usable liveable space. So part of the building is complete. Don't spend money elsewhere just becomes expensive and you're away from your new build.

Thanks for your advice

Great idea!! the Dimitrievs of Pensa "Messi and Gerda" a puma and a Cheeta, promoted months ago one of the fast made houses. you can go back to a surprise for Messi, it included a sauna

I wish you the best of luck to finish building your house. I like the style of your house. It looks very promising. I don't think that I'm able to give you competent advise, but I think I would "camp out" on my land in a spot where I don't impede the work at and in the house. I would spend as little as possible on anything else. aside from perhaps a trailer to live in. If a trailer isn't feasible I would build a "guest house" as small as possible. Perhaps only one room with a proper bath room and nothing more. My focus would be on closing off the interior of the house from the elements and then to get it warm and livable. Thus, gas, water and plumbing would come before electricity.

Thank you so much for your donation and your advice. The electricity is needed to power the boiler. Altogether with the windows, doors, electricity, plumbing, water, gas and boiler, it will already cost at least $40,000, that’s without anything do to the interior.

You are building a huge house, but have no money. Interesting approach.

It’s great that you are able to build a house outright. Almost everyone in the UK has a mortgage. I built this house when I had a successful business. Things change fast. Though you are very lucky that you have the money to build a house outright.

@@SamsRussianAdventures I know. I was very lucky that I was able to pay cash for mine. The idea of getting into debt just does not sit well with me.

@@SamsRussianAdventures Thanks, Sam. I got lucky with a couple of investments about 20 years ago, which has enabled me to live debt-free. Hope you work out a way to finish the grand house. Mine is only 152 m2, but it's more than I need, now that I am all alone (my mother left me for a better world a few months ago). Garage and sauna are the main things.

If you finish building the house by yourself you would save over 60 to 70% of the cost and it would be great material for your KZread channel. I am in the construction business in the US. It isn't that difficult to put windows and doors with some help that you can hire by the hour.

I think finishing a house seems easier in your eyes because it’s your profession!!!

Complete doors windows kitchen and one room in existing house.

I find the plan with the guest house very interesting. Of course it would be cool to go on vacation there in a few years. How far do you live from Vladimir? I've now checked the teletext from ORF (state television) - it's warmer in Moscow than in Vienna at the moment (end of May). I think it would be exciting to go on holiday there.

It might be better to finish the big house. Otherwise you might stay with two unfinished houses. Install the windows, water and electricity. The inner part could be built step by step, it is possible to isolate from cold some part of your house for living. For example let it be one bedroom, a bathroom and some temporal basic part for the kitchen with temporal furniture for the time being. You will have the opputunity to advertise the building companies in some other manner. Just IMHO.

I would just build a tiny house, live in it till you finish your main house then rent it. Trying to build something to live in then convert it to a banya means remodeling which is more expensive than to build new.

Even a tiny house requires plumbing and electricity.

I think the idea of building another smaller structure, even if it became a banya in the future, is bad, and taking a loan is also a bad idea. Either put a yurt in the yard and live there till you gather the money to finish the house, or get electricity and water to the house and put windows and doors in 2-3 rooms at most (1 kitchen, 1 bathroom, 1 living room with a sofa-bed), so you can live in the house without it being finished in its entirety. Either plan saves you the money you spend on the rent and allows you to live in that beautiful area.

I agree with this idea. If making a small part of the existing house livable is impossible at this time, then get the pre-built structure like yurt or banya. No need to build a second house. Getting pre-manufactured structure will save you money and time. You can start living there this summer and save money from renting in order to slowly build the main house. I would lean towards banya because you can always use it later for its main purpose. I googled and it looks like you can get a pretty nice pre-made banya in Vladimir for 10000-15000 pounds. So the most part of the loan can be spend on the main house.
