Junk Land, continued

Last time, WHY you want junk land. Now? How? How is easy peasy. You go to Land Watch dot com. I have a link to the site at the end of every blog article, in the small print, saying “junk land under a grand”. You send the seller money. They do all the paperwork. As easy as ordering a soft serve ice cream cone, just a bit more expensive. And that is it. Without a house or bankers, buying just land is a very uncomplicated transaction. Now, a few words on the site. At the top and right side are a bunch of ads. Don't ignore them. There are oodles and gobs of companies selling junk land.

*

On the left is the dashboard where you control the search. Where you want the land, how much it costs. It is a pretty nice site, the only issue I've noticed is that a lot of rentals for office space were showing up. But I recognize a lot of the companies from my E-Bay land purchases, and the site was recommended by a minion, so you should have no problems. E-Bay still is a possibility, but it sucks compared to 2005 when I first started buying land there. A lot more restrictions and a lot less to choose from.

*

A lot of these junk land companies offer money down and payments. It is a “financed by owner” deal, so no banks are involved. You can have the worlds worst credit and finance junk land at a reasonable interest rate. And they usually don't penalize early pay-offs. What more could you ask for? $50 down and $50 a month and in two years you own your own land, never to pay rent again. Now, granted, beware those $50 a month sales. It is usually in a bad zoning area, no water and perhaps no jobs. But they are possible.

*

You could research every state you want to move to, then every county, for zoning particulars. My method was more haphazard, as I went through hundreds of land ads every day for hours, for months, before I found my first great deal. I learned about zoning through those. Fifteen years ago. I didn't want to read lawyer-ese to get specifics, just a general flavor for all the potential states. Details will of course matter, but I needed to know who to avoid and who to focus on.

*

This was before Google Earth, and a GPS was still a luxury. It is a lot easier now ( I got paper plot maps from my county to find my first land. Now they have those online. The paper maps were much better. Just not quicker or handier ). Now it is a lot harder for someone to fool you. I always had the philosophy that I was spending $500. I could afford to get ripped off. Luckily, it never happened, although my initial criteria was low cost ( my more expensive land was close by, and I didn't have to buy sight unseen if I didn't want to. Plus, the sellers were incorporated-a bit less worry they were fly by night ).

*

My biggest concern was zoning ( why I chose those I did-they allowed unlimited RV parking ), and water close by ( wells are a vulnerability, and why I stayed out of west Texas ). A legal county owned road for access. And of course a job ( pay child support or go to jail ). Then I focused on culture. Where were “my” people. I couldn't move back to California, that state and all who live there are dead to me. It is a death trap, on par with Escape From New York.

*

I don't just mean fellow Whites. For instance, plenty of Whites in Louisiana, and that place had a VERY weird vibe. I left the same day I arrived. I would never, unless following a bosomy Sugar Mamma with an arsenal of HK-91's, and gold Krugerrand's falling out of her cooter, move to YankeeLand. I don't care what color they are. NOT normal people up there ( I met transplants in Florida. Half of them were foreigners culturally ). Color matters in a way. If the area is Latino, forget getting a job there as they all go to Like Colors. A high percentage of Blacks, yes, they ARE out to get you. Obammy sanctioned and awoke race hatred among Blacks, and I don't like being a target.

*

To get a good idea of race, I looked up the location, the nearest town, under City-Data dot com. It is okay for Mexican's and Blacks to prefer their own kind, and by gum I don't have to be a racist to feel the same way. Unless they are racist also. But I'm far more focused on culture than race. In this case, race just points to other factors, employment and danger of crime. You know, profiling. But as exemplified under the above states examples, it is more about culture. Texas? I lived there six months, and never felt welcome. Florida? Too modern, in the personal isolated community-less sort of way. A lot of places are full of Yuppie Scum, rich twats screwing me economically.

*

Nevada was the best fit for me, a stand 99.9% of survivalists disagree with. I don't want them here anyway, so there! Fight over your abundant rain locations with all the city folk. I love the desert, and I love the emptiness and quiet. I love the space between people. I love the cold, now, after I acclimated. Pick the spot YOU want. If it is the “perfect” retreat, but you hate everyone there, you will have a suck-ass life. We need to plan on a collapse, but also a life to enjoy if one doesn't happen on our schedule.

*

Now, to finances. You need to buy with an understanding you are making an imperfect investment. You are gambling more than investing. The purchase amount needs to be small enough you can walk away. Ask any old White retiree stuck in insane property tax New Jersey, the yearly taxes more than the purchase price of the house fifty years ago. Gee, I wonder if his Social Security covers that. Ask any old White stuck in what is now a minority ghetto. They waited too long to move, because of that high cost investment, and now cannot sell high enough to move elsewhere.

*

You can discover your new area is far worse than you thought. The county officials screw with you. A neighbor from Hell moves in after you do. Developers discover the area and bribe the zoning people to harass you. The nearby town closes its factory and employment crashes. You hate the weather ( a lot of Northern Arizona is more like high elevation Colorado than it is like low desert Phoenix, for example ). Perhaps you never even get the opportunity to move there. Land, at first, is an expense. Only after you successfully settle down is it a great investment allowing you to never pay rent or a mortgage again. Then it is liberating.

*

Just beware it won't be a painless process. It won't be as cheap as you think. But it is worth it in the end. The freedom to live on $300 a month instead of $1,000 ( in conjunction with freeing yourself from a motor vehicle, in that case ) means you are much closer to economic freedom. Retiring ten years prior to getting Social Security was the best moment in my life, outside of having kids. You don't do that still paying rent. Junk land, the first step to quitting the Rat Race. And a nice survivalist tool.

( PS-you can always buy tax delinquent land, but I'm going under the assumption you wish to beat the occurring economic collapse and don't have forever to procure a lot to hold up in )
