What To Consider Before Building Your House - What Social Implications Are Involved

This article follows my previous articles on the decisions and considerations surrounding the building of one's own house, starting with the benefits of building your own house, where to build and what type of house to build.

Building one's ฝากขายที่ดิน own house also has a bearing on the social facet of life, both to the owner as well as to the others surrounding them. This is because such construction is done amidst others, either already built or to be built later. A house is definitely one of the pointers of one's social status and as such, you would most likely want to paint the true picture of yourself. This will avoid instances of misjudgment. Not because it will make any meaningful difference to the reality, but because your little daughter may be labeled 'The girl from the shack' by her pals in school, a thing that you might not really stomach comfortably!

It also plays the same on the other side. You don't want to look imposing to your neighbors by putting up a giant structure amidst their diminutive houses. You will not only provide them with a landmark for their directions around the village, but it will also make you uncomfortable when you walk around the area market with everyone staring and commenting behind your back. You will also become an obvious target for criminals, who will want to share in your hard-earned possessions. It is always best to be where you fit best. Where you belong so you don't become a black (or white) sheep!

Another important social factor is to conform to the dos of your society. Again, the contrary may not really change the colour of your skin, but it is always good to play the common tune, especially in communities where the door has to face the gate rest you be viewed as unwelcoming! There are other places, like where I come from, where the sons cannot enter their bedroom through the same corridor as the parents! And you don't want your son labeled unmarriable (for lack of a better word). This is because the society is an integral part of us and there are some royalty we owe to it. A house is an integral part of the family. It should tell about you and your family. A warm and welcoming house will generally do a lot of good to your family. An alien house will equally alienate your family! The social trends of the area where you intend to build should also be carefully thought out and all the pointers on the same reviewed. An example is a growing neighbourhood without elaborate arrangements to control development. You may soon find your single storey hose surrounded by multi storey, low class residential flats or worse-still a slum of hovels!

All in all, you should seek to strike a balance between the interests of the family with the manageable norms of your society. Just like you cannot live without your neighbours, your house should also comfortably 'live' with the neighbours!

In the next article, we look at the environmental factors to consider when building your house.
