I am very new to these forums, so if this isn't the place to post this, I apologise.
I'm in the crawl phase of planning a small homestead and cob house, and one of my major concerns is the worst case scenario of me spending a few years cultivating this lifestyle, just to have a man in a suit come along and tell me I have to tear my house down.
I looked up building codes for my state, but reading it was like trying to translate an alien language...
Does anyone have resources for what I need to make my cob house legal? If I make it small enough, does it even need to abide by those rules? If there's a minimum size for a 'house' in Virginia, I don't think it would be a problem for me to stay under that.
Any help would be a Godsend!
