What would happen if you bought a ghost town?

A real estate listing for a private island with a cottage and some outbuildings had me curious about what rules govern these things. If someone bought such a property—private island, ghost town, land that is otherwise not part of a city—could they do whatever they wanted with it?

I'm thinking about the stories here of people starting 'pandemic pods' and things like this to continue socializing during These Times. If money was no object (alas, for me, it is, but hypothetically) could me and 10 friends go in on the island cottage and start our own town? Could we plant gardens and install solar panels and make a whole society there? Would the owner of a ghost town, or island or something like this need building permits? Would there be any rules governing their behaviour in such a circumstance?
