Is buying property then building a house on it more affordable than buying an existing house?

Depends. Right now, I don't think so, also I think depends on the area too and who you know. I'm looking in completely new areas (far from here) where I don't know a soul. Probably living in a trailer or building something cheap and temporary for a little while.

I've heard materials costs are high, so even new builds can be really pricey right now.

Heard the same around here

I was trying to avoid a mortgage if I could but that's looking like an impossibility anymore.
