My understanding is that the new codes allow you to legally live on your land for 6 months while you build. Not long enough, but still...
However, the main thing is what your neighbors think. Here is Orchidland I know about the following, and these are only those you can see from the street: Living part time in a bus and boat: living in a camper or 5th wheel (several locations); living in the detached garage while the house is being built; living in a container (probably purchased) with windows while material is stored in another container.
