RE: I just spent a quarter of a million dollars
Congratulations on building your own castle. ;-)
I'm a little worried though, as to me the materials used look a little fragile tosay the least. Then again, I suppose I'm more of a granite and heavy timber kind of guy. Do you live in a place that has severe weather? I'm thinking tornadoes and the likes.
How about angry mobs? Let me tell you, nothing stops an angry mob like a good wall of carved granite stone, or a porticullis made of thick royal oak timbers.

You had your house constructed? Is that generally cheaper or more expensive?
My mom is a realtor and in my village a lot of people have started building.
Different houses take different amounts of times to build. Here it's about 3-6 months usually.
For the price though I can say with confidence that building is more expensive. You have to hire an architect, buy all the materials, etc. ..
Wee bought our house. Cheaper.
i disagree building is defo cheaper and think about it y would someone build a house and sell it @ a loss??? people dnt do that they make money so building is defo cheaper, it is here n e way!
n ZiNgA said houses in aus goin up, they all startin 2 go down now in ireland cause our economy is failing and wee beginning to go into a depression woooooooo go us lol!!!
also i taut building in USA n all was alot different than ireland but it looks about the same, except the style of house that is!
also in ireland most houses are built from these bastards:
