Some areas have big yards where there is a range of second hand houses that have been moved there and are for sale.

These yards are usually in areas of high development where developers are buying up residential sites for high rise apartments. They sell the house off cheap and have it removed. This will only work of course where the house has a timber floor so that it can jacked up and steel bearers slid underneath and the whole thing loaded onto a truck and carted away.

If your house is a double shift it has been cut in half and will require a bit of work to patch up the join.
