The reason being that not everyone has a farm, house or garden big enough for a log hut, or a house that can be extended to two dwellings. Your mate's log hut is grand, is he paying property tax on it, has he planning for it, is the septics tank planning compliant now. Extension's to houses are grand but these house are not attractive to sell down the line and maybe after spending 50-100k they will be no more valuable than the uuextended house next door. Finally what you are quoting as a example are jobs that sound like cash jobs no vat paid and cash paid for labour. With most of these jobs lads fail to keep complete costings and most cost 20-30% above what lads think. Finally on recessions lads should remember the books of rules and in the last rules in section 2 of that rule subsection 7 it clearly states All recessions are different, plans made to benefit from the rarely manage to be implemented. Even if implemented the outcome is rarely what is predicted. It funny we have lads here yelling how they were f@@ked over in the last recession, they failed to buy on the upturn and they expect to get the timeing right this time. You have to wonder at times

Personally I can see slightly lower demand for large scale offices and city centre apartments but I wouldn't like to guess if it will be enough to move the needle significantly.
