So... I need to find a cheap place to live. I'm DIY big, but small on cash. Though I do have the ability to do many things, I have a ton of health problems that I can't do anything about, and didn't do anything to cause. Basically disabled but not getting a check from the gov.
I need to find a cheap rural lot to live in that will let me do what I want. But I don't have a lot of cash and can't do a mortgage. My ability to produce income is very limited, but extremely stable. I just can't produce a lot of it.
It seems like on paper, I could find a rural lot and then just build a cabin on it. But I don't have the funds or know how to deal with stuff like building codes, rules of society that force you to buy things. That seems both intimidating and a trap. That kind of stuff could put me in a position where I can't go forward and could even get trapped into giving up too much cash.
I was hoping people might have insight on stuff related to this.
On paper building like a 1 room or 2 room cabin actually doesn't take a lot. You could do it cheaply and without a lot of cash. But its this stuff with people wanting you to pay into the system that make it difficult.
Like how do you find rural places to live that will let you build with limited means? Or like a lot where they won't be looking over your shoulder with restrictions and enforcement? Is it possible to find something where you can just put up 'agricultural sheds' that you happen to be staying in? Or a way around the red tape? Are there places in the US still that won't really enforce a bunch of code rules and let you do your own system?
Some places in Europe and the US also have different rules for agricultural intended people. And I actually could use that to my advantage as I have 10 years gardening experience, if I actually knew the rules for those which would vary by state.
What kinds of questions should you ask when buying a rural lot if you are looking for something where you need to build unhindered?
I'd asked this kind of thing on youtube, but as soon as I did the channel I asked it on got quiet. It was the only thing they didn't or couldn't help with.
