It's more than a lot of work and you
still have permit and inspection costs atop materials and labor. Even 300,000
or less than 10,000 per dwelling would sound absolutely credible.

Then none of the properties is saleable, therefore worthless and the
entire estate will have to be condemned as unfit for human habitation
and all residents rehoused by the taxpayer.


Did these properties have market values less than GBP 10,000 on average
before you discovered the problem with the sewage plant?

No, of course not. But without provision for sewage disposal meeting
the required standards, no one in their right mind is going to
contemplate a purchase. Therefore, the properties are unsaleable and
consequently worthless -- until said provision has been replaced.
