Top 10 Cheapest Places to Buy Land. (Homesteading and Tiny House)
#AmazonTinyHouse

✔Cheap land for sale.

This video is for all of you that have been asking about the best places for land that you could buy for Homesteading or Tiny Homes.
I'm not sure about the rules for each and every place as far as tiny homes or homesteading because the laws and rules are changing constantly. Do your own research about those subjects. This list is about the cheapest places to find land that you probably can do that.
A lot of cheap lands are going to be in Arizona and New Mexico but I found some other places in Alaska, Colorado, and Arkansas too.

Want to do your own research:

If you enjoy these videos I would love to hear about it. Most of these videos are made to help people who are thinking about relocating, looking for real estate, or just wanting to learn about the United States. We look at the best and worst cities, states, towns, and neighborhoods in the United States. But, most of the time focus on the negative side of locations. If you only want some happy positive information about a city, town, or state, I would suggest looking up local mortgage and real estate companies or maybe the locations website. They are trying to sell you something so it will be nothing but sunshine, rainbows and a bunch of smoke up your skirt. They won't tell you about crime, poverty, bail bondsmen, or insurance you'll need because of natural disasters. I will. And I will try and make it entertaining.

Thanks for stopping by The world according to Briggs, I make lists. Not just lists of random stuff, I make them about states, cities, towns and other places in the United States. I post 3 times a week and sometimes live stream. Enjoy.

I'm from Oregon and I lived in Klamath Falls for 10 years. The county motto is, "come for vacation, leave on probation "

My wife and I just bought some acreage in Upstate New York for $2, 400 per acre. It's mostly wooded, with some brush, and a few open areas where the previous owners hunted deer. The land is within walking distance of a couple rivers known for great fishing, and is only a few miles away from a reservoir for more fishing and boating. There are quite a few off-grid cabins in the area, so despite what you may have heard, New York can be a good place to drop off the map. We're going to build a cabin and live there for retirement.

For one, you better find out why it’s cheap, you don’t want to buy land without reading the survey records otherwise you might be building right in the middle of a flood zone. Find out if it has a well, how close is it to any mountains (flooding from snow melt) also make sure you’re not building on reclaimed land that is now a capped off land fill. So many variables so little information on what to look for in a land purchase, knowing where your nearest neighbors are is also a must.

Maine is really cheap outside of the major cities, like 1.5-2k an acre. If you look at the climate zone map of the state and buy in zone 4 or higher, that's warm enough to grow certain fruit trees, many nut trees, and a few months of good growing season.

Plenty of brooks, lakes, and the ocean too.

that makes me happy. Knowing that there are places where nobody lives nor wants to live. The less people, the

The best thing about Winslow AZ is seeing it in your rearview mirror as you're leaving.

I have lived in remote areas at certain times and if you have never done it, it’s not something to invest money into without experience. I would suggest you find a remote location and rent for about a year if you can. You will know by the end of one year if that lifestyle suits you. There are a lot of variables you need to know about like- travel, communication, health, basic services, personal protection, the list goes on.

Desert living. Cools down at night. Build with adobe. Cool in summer hot in winter. Better than wood. Build into the earth It is cooler down a few feet.

[davidmichael]

Here to shop. Literally. I’m done. People in America have disappointed me to the point that I don’t want to see any of them anymore.

[tyroberts]

Notice most of these lands have notorious water problems. No water, no life. You’re right, Kenai is really nice. Georgia is still being haunted by Ned Beatty.

A little further East from Winslow Arizona is the town of St Johns. Near there you can buy 30 to 40 acre ranches for $20k to 40k. You can get flat, barren ones for much less. They have lots of vegetation, some are wooded, cool rock formations, community well, and high water table if you want to drill your own. No electricity so you’d have to use solar, wind, or generator. Higher elevation so it’s not nearly as hot as the southern deserts. They finance with 10% down. Not a bad deal if you’re looking for recreational land or just want solitude.

[Big-Government-Is-The-Problem]

land without water is worthless in my opinion for homesteading. when i bought my land the requirement was that it had to have a year round spring fed creek and a well.

[bikemessenger]

I thought this might help people "a football field is about 1.32 acres in size"

[neuroshrink]

Watch out for those "gated communities" - they have extreme restrictions on what you can do with the land, and a Homeowners Association run by the developer that turns it into more of a timeshare than owning land.

[sourwes]

Can’t believe West Virginia didn’t make a spot on this list. Good farm/homesteading land with great water can be had for less than $1k per acre.

Briggs, my Nana always said you get what you paid for. This VLOG proves her point. Anyhow, keep the VLOGS coming because it is an excellent cure for cabin fever at this time.

[kdjensen]

You forgot to mention one very important piece of information. Many places have deed restrictions and zoning restrictions that do NOT allow tiny homes or RVs on these parcels of land, no matter how big they are. It's best to check that out before buying. You'd think you might want to include that.

[farmlifeoffgrid]

Really just depends on how much land you buy and how much you can put down, we paid 69 k for 73 acres on top of a mountain in northern vermont, half mile of trout stream and a 5 acre pond on the land.

So things to keep in mind when you buy your dream off-the-grid home. 1. State income and property taxes 2. vehicle laws 3. wetlands 4. access 1. Assuming you are going to live on a fixed income if you live somewhere you can't commute to work from (although maybe you'll be able to full-time telework), state tax is something to think about. State income taxes range from the teens to 0%. Some states exempt retirement income, some don't. Property taxes also range widely. Pick wrong and be prepared to shave some serious cheddar for the tax man. 2. Plan to have that homestead with that ole' pickup truck? Not in CA or VA or many of the other states that have mandatory vehicle safety and/or emissions inspections. I live in VA and, while there are antique plates here for vehicles over 25 years, for many old vehicles that are not quite that old, it would cost more to fix them or get the emissions up to code than the vehicle costs. You may well have a $5k homestead with a $25k truck sitting outside since if a vehicle won't pass annual safety inspections or biannual emissions inspections (again VA, idk about other states) you can't get plates for it. 3. wetlands - never, never, never buy somewhere that is designated as a wetland unless you understand that hiking and temporary camping (maybe hunting) is all you will ever be able to do. Any structure, improvement (driveway, garage) and the levels upon levels of bureacracy needed to lay the first piece of gravel will drive you crazy. 4. never buy anywhere that does not have legal access. Some states do not allow land to be landlocked, others do. If your access is an easement, be prepared for your neighbor to cancel it or maybe ask for some rent. Be a shame to get your dream cabin built deep in the woods only to find that your easement is now cancelled and the only way to get to the cabin is airdrop or catapault.

I was born and raised on the Kenai Peninsula, breathtaking views. Gorgeous state, very high cost of living. Most everything needs to be shipped in, so the mark up on products are ridiculous
