In MO it's a serious sellers market, sell your home and drop a temp trailer you can resell later on it

looks awesome, possibly a high point in the area?
 
Why not sell the house and buy an RV to stay in for the time that it takes to build the house. Much cheaper, easier to setup and move, and probably easier to unload when the house is done. OR keep it for trips.

When shit starts crashing here soon, you should be able to find tons of great deals.

Family situation though? Many mama's aint gonna go for livin in an RV for more than a weekend!!
 
Renting will only put you in the whole slightly in the monthly payment bit I dont think it will long term. Now is a great time to sell and if you could walk with 1-200 in your pocket that would put you in a great spot to approach the bank for a construction loan. Once you pull the permits the county should allow you to pull temp power and live in a temporary residence such as a trailer.

Another way to get a power drop with no building permits is for your electric gate or well.

With 40 acres it would be really hard for me not to just ignore the county completely and get a big metal building up as fast as possible. Tell the county to fuck off and let them red tag the property if they ever even find out. If it's your forever spot and you dont plan on selling who cares. You could be moved into your shop house and never have a mortgage payment again
This is part of the reason I want to get a excavator and pole barn built ASAP. I would have room to put my shot and be able to live in my travel trailer.

Power is another issue. My building location is roughly in the center of the property. It isn’t going to be cheap to get it there, and part of the reason for wanting a machine.
 
Figures.

I’ve seen some strange things out in the woods that involved illegals. First thing comes to mind is them picking moss. I’ve seen them packing out huge bags of it.

The floral companies pay them to go out on state/timber land and grab all they can carry. Used to see them all the time in Tahuya, don't know how many I've almost run over with a dirt bike. Nothing like ripping down your favorite stretch of trail and coming around the corner to find 20 illegals standing in the trail stuffing the forest into bags.

Got a 26’ one already. One option that I have thought about is having a pole barn big enough to park it inside and live. It would help hide it from the overhead pics.

I totally understand that and is the reason I wouldn’t ask the GF to sell her house and move into a trailer while also getting set up at a new job at a new hospital. I’m sure she will have lots of shit that she won’t want to get rid of.
 
Obviously don't know your situation but a GF wouldn't stop me from doing the RV thing. WIfe, yes. GF no. If she is in, she is moving closer to wife material.

I will admit that a 26'er would give me pause to live in. I have a 35' Class A and that is barely doable for a year or so.

Me...I sell the 26 but something a little bigger with some of the house proceeds and start on the house and hope the GF is there when its done. If she is, some of house proceeds goes toward a ring after the house is done.

Probably gonna need to see her tits to make a more scientific analysis however. :smokin:

Get a drop at the edge of the property for your "gate" now and trench in your own power for the time being.

Full, off the grid solar an option for power?

I admit i have no idea the pricing on either pulling cable in that neck of the woods not the cost of solar for what you power needs would be but maybe a cheaper option, and hell even if it isn't, you still may come out ahead if youre talking about a forever home.

It has definitely been in my mind.

Truthfully I would love to be off the grid but I need to look into the monetary pros and cons, I just know that PNW and solar brings the pain in the ass.

Now you see why I talk about living in my trailer, parked inside my pole barn. She is moving closer to “be with for the long haul” but we all know how life works.


This a decent offering?

Sounds like you have things pretty well figured out. I agree with a metal building asap. I would get hook ups for a travel trailer also. Put them in a "out of sight" place where you can park a trailer/motorhome in the future. (Could rent or make it a guest house after you build your dream house) The solar idea is cool, but I would bring power in for the time being.

As far as money, why not a home equity "line of credit"? That way your not paying interest while not useing the money. I had a 100 grand line of credit for ten years. It really was handy.
 
I realized the other evening as the sun was going down that I may have a bit of a view. Now I figure I’ll start clearing out on the low side of the landing to see what I can get.

Im going to have to figure out where I want the shop and house....

Cant tell on my phone, is that the ocean?

Lol... no. But it is a pic facing to the west from this evening.

I could have a much better view, but my driveway length would double. And after hearing that my door knob neighbor spent 60k on his I have decided that it would be best to just compromise with this.
 
Nice property :smokin:

If the mushrooms & moss biz is out, what about the market on ferns? I really can't put my finger on it but I read some poem/article in H.S. that the fern on twat represents virginity?

Any water for usage, like a well or capped spring-
 
Beautiful property :smokin: it reminds me of the five acres I had before the great divorce of ‘92 🙁

We’re on eleven, but it’s all grass with a few trees we planted

I have a spring that produces water above ground for 3/4 of the year, but it is close to 200’ below the landing that I’m looking to build. I’m going to need to find a Witcher and see if they get a good hit for a well location on the landing. It’s definitely another building location factor.
 
It’s a longer run than secondary power can do. I have to run primary.

Look into primary metering. If your utility allows it, you can run your own primary/transformer/secondary . It could save you a lot of money on install. Downside is you own and maintain it, if there's issues/outages on your line or equipment, its on you to fix. That's generally why very very few ppl do it.
