I live in a place with no building codes (and barely any zoning regs) and raw plots i looked at asshole boomers encumbered their title with irrevocable CC&Rs preventing small starter homes before they croked. Most the properties I looked at were poisoned this way making it totally impossible for young starting families to stake down, it was quite infuriating.

You'd be surprised even in rural undeveloped areas how hard it can be to build, it's all gotten much worse in the past 50 years. In the city they damn you with onerous permit and utility connection requirements, in the country they slit the throat with ever more onerous septic and well environmental restrictions which of course were voted in by people who grandfathered their own property in.
