JEDDAH, 12 March 2007 — A Saudi man, who spent SR1 million building a three-story house, was left devastated when he found out that he had built the home on the wrong plot of land, the daily Al-Watan reported yesterday. The man had completed building the home and was arranging for an electricity line to be installed when he discovered his mistake. The land he actually owned was an adjacent plot owned by a man living close by. The man visited the landowner who initially refused to exchange the land and asked him to tear down the house. Feeling desperate, the man even offered the landowner SR100,000 to exchange land deeds. The landowner eventually, after seeing the completed house, carried out the exchange free of charge.
