S. FL Islander to be
I sure am! Don't hate the land owner! I have built many homes in Puna and it has been a constant struggle with the builders. All THEY ever wanted to do and did most of the time was just to bulldoze everything regardless of the plans I GAVE THEM BEFORE the clearing! They always had some excuses why it couldn't be done the way I wanted it and why they had to bulldoze almost everything. With one builder, Tony Vicar, (after almost fully bulldozing three lots for me) it got to the point that I sent him a registered letter indicating that I will not pay for the clearing if it's not done the way I wanted it, no ifs, no buts. (That was the last house he built for me.) The truth is, builders and landclearing people are probably more responsible for the ripping of the land than the owners.
