Kholoh Hlezie asked:
"It's beautiful but wonder about the risk factors. When it's very windy, haevey rain how are things? Risk of fire burning and loosing everything so beautiful and classy. In this piece of land is the owner not allowed to build? With everything in here clearly shows she or he can afford to build a house. Or you prefer a shack. Please educate us maybe the are things we don't know we need to learn. We never stop learning. No bad blood my dear I am willing to learn seriously."
