Oddly enough real living space would end up costing you more than the island itself as there was mention that including shipping the materials you would pay over 200k to build a house there.

I seen that but it's an island in the North Atlantic how much shelter would you need

No doubt the locals of Tory island a little further north would likely have a set of insults for how soft you were with anything more than a sheepskin and hat for shelter.
