The fact you have to get permission to live on a piece of land seems very wrong to me though, all I want is to live off grid with my family not bothering anyone or anything. Living in peace. But government won’t allow that they want us all enslaved to their wicked system. I hope one day I can truly break free.

      @C Bee L.O.L. right. We had a fellow here with similar ideas, he purchased land 700 K'ms from the city, established his home and lives off the grid. The local council sent him a bill for his rates, he blew up. The local council does not provide him with anything, he provide his own water, sewerage,rubbish disposal, electricity. So he's no drain on the council. It went to court, and he was stuck with his share of building and maintaining the road that provides access to his home.No matter what you do, one way, or another, they will screw you.

    I’ve had the dream to be off grid in wales for the past 15 years but couldn’t afford even the land. I knew that having your own land represents freedom, but freedom isn’t cheap, so then I started a new plan to raise the money I needed to do this. The process isn’t finished yet as I’m still not where I need to be but at least now, I can see light at the end of the tunnel regarding my financial prison.
    What you’ve done is amazing and an inspiration. God bless you 🙏

      I can't afford to buy anything in England but saving towards buying land somewhere cheap and sunny abroad. However, apparently there's free land scattered about England that you can claim but you have to make sure it's unregistered and no owner and that's the bit I'm clueless about lol but maybe that's something you could look into for Wales. If they have such a thing. Good luck with your plans

      @thedoubleboiler6971 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      @@AaronLyons

      It varies by state, and is a fairly long answer, but here we go. For a home mortgage where we live in the Midwest, closing costs are about 2-3% down on the homes sale value (around $2600 or so and that could even be negotiated to have the sellers pay some or all of closing if needed) and then another 2-3% down for the home itself (we had to save about $6k to $7k set aside in total for our house costing $164k before sales tax, leading to a total of $167k after taxes tied into our mortgage). We also do have our insurance built into an escorow account. Plus a home inspection (about $40-$100 will need to be put in place before purchase. Your realtor (I do suggest using one with good reviews and experience) will go over all of this with you as well as which bank or credit union your mortgage is approved.
      Our bills are always budgeted to the highest bill ever paid for each bill are they are laid out as follows.
      Mortgage $1216.89 Apr. P
      Internet $23 Mar P
      Insurance $63 Mar car+home
      Electric $200 Mar P
      Life Ins Aaron $33 Mar. P
      Life Ins Ashlie $24 Mar P
      Water $164.15 Mar. P
      Car Payment $166 ($7000 total: 6 payments made) Apr P
      Total cost of our monthly bills being: $1890.04 or $945.02 Bi-weekly. excluding other costs ie. food, vehicle fuel, maintenance) Expect to budget another $100 monthly for those and "unexpected" costs, which is where having a bank layout is just as important and ours goes as follows.
      We have 5 Checking accounts for 5 specific reasons.
      Checking 1: Weekly Spending
      Checking 2: Monthly Bills
      Checking 3: Emergency Fund
      Checking 4: Investment Transfers
      Checking 5: Credit Card Fund
      Bills and transfers can take up to 5 business days in order to transact and setting accounts up this way ensures no overspending and the credit card is only used for cash back. We never pay interest because once the card is swiped, we transfer the funds used on the card from our weekly spending account to our credit card fund and and we never spend more than we have.
      My wife and I both work (myself being fulltime "$17 per hr at time of purchase" and her being part time "$12 per hr at time of purchase" so we can both watch our son and still see each other while paying the bills) in order to pull this off and have a paycheck come in once weekly, currently. We do not drink alcohol, smoke, or party in any way and we are very frugal on spending. We do have an outing about once a month or so in order to go out to eat, or do something fun currently and that can increase in the future when we are less reliant on grocery stores for food, and our investments grow etc.
      We do not trust anyone to watch our son, so the life insurance policies you see (of $1M each at time of death) and the way this is orchestrated is really our only option at the moment. At time of death, it will be split between assets of index funds in the stock market and lived on 4% of the total (about $40k annually) will cover the bills forever) How we save for retirement is through my employers (401k with a match of $0.50 for ever $1 we throw in, up to 15% per paycheck).
      We are aiming for growing all of our food this year (savings of about $200 weekly) and saving for solar panels to be placed on our home as well as a wood burning stove. (Which will raise our home owners insurance slightly but worth it). To purchase land in itself, in most cases, it will need to be paid for in cash (no mortgage).
      To note: all of this is the base/ground work of home operation and ownership. Each home will vary due to up front and operational cost.
      I realize this post is very long, but I do hope it answers some questions to home ownership that you may have had.

      @@valerieann2751 Thank you for asking and we are not currently looking for lots to rent as that too is a complicated answer.
      We live in a suburban area of our township and own 1 acre of property, so with building a tiny home here, plus food growth, etc. a tiny home, due to building codes, etc. would not work. If it were more rural, (about 10 min from our city) we may have gotten more away with it. We were looking in that direction as well, but placing land under a mortgage is not going to happen.
      In order to go that direction, the property would need to be paid for in cash, or a personal loan would need to be put into place and those come with different protections and interest rates than that of a standard home mortgage.

    Just wow! I cant tell you how much i feel a longing to live like this. I've grown my own food and herbs for a few years now and the more i do the deeper the connection to the earth gets. This year I'm going to make tinctures and learn more about herbs for medicine. Your home is truly beautiful and amazing and incredibly special. I live in Saundersfoot, Pembs. So not far from you! I'd love to come and visit your beautiful home someday.

    I visited some years ago. It is lovely, but it is hard work and maybe not suitable for people with health issues whether physical or mental. It is also a lot of work to complete the paperwork that is required by the welsh authorities. Definitely not an easy option but I hope a lot more OPDs are granted. These people were the pioneers.
