Step 3: Don't use glass for the windows. You can get a 4x8 sheet of inch-thick lexan or plexiglass, which is bulletproof by the way, for 175 bucks down on Canal Street in NYC. It's an extremely resilient material.
I could be wrong, but doesn't plexiglass tend to cloud up and become yellow after a number of years?
Step 6: make sure the house sits at the base (or top) of a cliff or some other construction-inconvenient location. Then plant LOTS of oak trees all over the place. Within fifty years they'll turn into a nice forest.
All those trees might keep the developers at bay, but after 50 years their root system will have turned your foundation into swiss cheese...
