In this video, I break down the real costs, risks, and realities of going off-grid — from water and power to septic systems, financing challenges, and why most DIY off-grid builds never pass inspection (or resale).
As someone who’s been building and investing for nearly two decades, I’ll show you:
• The hidden costs of going off-grid (water, power, and waste)
• Why most “cheap land” isn’t actually affordable
• What lenders, codes, and resale markets really think of off-grid cabins
• When going off-grid can make sense (and when it’s a terrible investment)
• How to evaluate off-grid builds if you’re planning to Airbnb or rent them
