There are many science fiction readers who have enjoyed the speculation of building homes and businesses on moons, asteroids, and they have even explored the futuristic idea of space station living. These might seem like wild dreams out of reach forever, but finding new property alternatives have become a good way to look at building a home today. There are new ways to look at the lots available on Earth, and imagination can go a long way.

While volcanoes continue to spew hot lava that will eventually cool into land, the time scale brings the land too far into the future. For those who want to build a home now, finding land available in their area might be too difficult. Reaching for the moon or stars is still out of reach, but much of this planet is covered with water. That is one of the more popular alternatives for people seeking an opportunity to build in their own space.
