Homesteading?

That’s Where I Come In

Everyone dreams of the day that they can

buy that dream piece of property for their

family homestead. The process may seem

daunting to say the least.

But you can learn how to do it.

It’s time to take a leap and start your Journey!

With hundreds of closings under my belt and also purchasing my own piece of land, I have learned a few things when it comes to getting important information.

It all comes down to asking the right questions and setting clear expectations right from the start with your Realtor. Riding the property of your dreams takes time and careful consideration. The details matter!

Stop dreaming and start shopping!

Homesteading

The art of self-reliance and sustainability through rural living, farming and resourcefulness.

My passion lies in teaching people how to find, build and maintain their family homestead through easy tutorials and simple habit forming techniques. 

Nothing is cooler than seeing your family homestead dreams come to life!

I mean who doesn’t want to have the step-by-step guide to buying land without worrying you missed something!

Not only do you have to figure out how to buy the land but then you have to figure out what to build on it and how to maintain and the list goes on and on!

That is where I come in to organize your thoughts and take each step one at a time and make the dream goal of owing your own homestead achievable!

These courses are designed for the family wanting unlimited options on how, when and if to build that homestead. Oh, and did I mention the awesome part?!

Not only am I equipping you with all the information you need but I can also connect you with the right Realtor in your area to be an extension of my arm and literally walk the steps with you.

The Problem is:

Most folks buy the 10+ acres and decide

they will figure it out as they go with no real plan in mind.

THE OUTCOME — Regrets galore, wasting heaps of time and money to wish you had a mentor to help you in the first place.

BUT GUESS WHAT?

potential to do this

You have all the potential in the world to do this right the first time!

^^  so…how are you going to accomplish this you might ask?

This is no walk in the park. It can feel like a walk in Jurassic Park if you are not careful! You’ve got to roll your sleeves up and decide that you will put the effort and time in to educating yourself before this whole process educates you on its own.

I get it

When I started looking for property the process felt a bit overwhelming.

I had little experience in buying more than 10 acres of land and had no clue how the financing arm worked to get you to the finish line.

But I did it…and took all the notes along the way!

10+ years later in Real Estate and I’ve looked back on all of the experiences and developed an actionable plan for you!
