Me and my hubby are also looking for land to purchase in CA , I am waiting on confirmatory lab results for a progressive neurodegenerative terminal disease that has only one known treatment- Cannabinoids! so a 215 property for us would be essential – we hope to stay in the middle of the state , although all the cheap land so far that i have found is in modoc county which is 12 hours from some family of mine that live in orange and i do believe its snows in winter? desert and snowy areas are out (we have a flock of chickens , a pet pig and a bunch of small dogs).. we want to stay somewhat inland to keep the price of the land to an affordable amount. I am just now considering finding a realtor since there is sooo much footwork involved in finding land suitable to go off the grid comfortably makes my head spin between county ordinance , code ,cultivation and animal restrictions , zoning , etc… we are thinking about going semi off the grid , as in , having an electric pole but supplementing with solar and i want land that has some sort of water underneath to tap a well in the future…
any suggestions on good places to search cheap raw secluded land OR realtors who specialize in cheap off the grid land?
