Then the structural engineering, any requirements such as solar, fire sprinklers, that is required  per code, and possibly  earthquake standards, (depending on location), and all the sudden that circular tiny home is a million dollar project.  

I remember one in RIchmond, CA , that was on a hillside, close to a earthquake fault and no normal building was allowed.

I'm presuming that's due to earthquake coverage.

Thanks.Mike Between the title insurance policy and your homeowner's insurance policy, you're pretty well covered, but by all means ask your go-to insurance guy what specific stuff his policy covers, and ask your escrow officer what stuff her policy covers.Location specific natural disasters often are not covered by the generic policies, earthquakes in the case of CA and...

How is hurricane damage covered - via a rider or a special policy like earthquake coverage in CA?

They had a massive earthquake a few months back that essentially wiped out the roads and small towns around it so the country so you can imaging no one is thinking about building vacation condos right now till they get infrastructure back.  

Bread, in their case, was Life to them and the communities they served.When I served as a missionary in Haiti, I saw the value of local bakeries... as they are (valuable) in all developing nations... this is a fact of life known by missionaries throughout the world.My real estate interest is in farmland and small producing farms outside of metropolitan areas.I'm looking to invest in a very special local bakery near where I'm increasing my holdings in farmland.

In California per the California Association of Realtors contract sellers have 7 days after acceptance to deliver the buyer all reports; title, hazard disclosure, HOA documents, transfer disclosure statement, lead, Megan's list, smoke detector/water heater, etc.The buyer has 17 days after acceptance to complete all buyer investigations (yes this means physical inspections) approve all disclosures (such as megans law, lead, earthquake, title, HOA etc) during this time the buyer may request repairs or credit for repairs such as a price discount based on findings and the seller is not obligated to respond to such request.

Earthquakes, tornados, mudslides, flooding, blizzards etc all cause property damage, but at least I know a hurricane is coming and can get the heck out of town.  

The building uses prefabricated modules (with a +/- 0.2mm precision in the fabrication process) mounted on a steel structure, with diagonal steel bracing.The hotel is so solid that it can resist a 9 magnitude earthquake, as tested by the China Academy of Building Research (there's a scene in which you can see the testing process, at 1:49).
