<prompt> Human: We were just offered 7 acres of land for free from my SO grandparents. They said we can clear it and build on it if we wish. I am trying to figure out if it is a good idea for us to have our first house built on the land. The benefits are that it is in a great school district, nice small town, very private and it would save us a bunch of money if we were to look for land somewhere else. The only downsides are that it is a little over an hour commute to my work and an hour to me and my SO parents and family. I am just looking for some advice to see if it would be worth taking and building on.  <response>: As somebody who lives an hour away from work because its cheaper... Dont do it.
