An affordable getaway
It used to be a common notion that “junk land” was cheap, and therefore unusable to build on. Either it was too far from utilities, or the soil was poor for building, or it was just going to cost a fortune to build on the land with all the poor attributes with the parcel. Hence, the term junk. Easy to get into, but expensive to build on. As a result, only the most hard core survivalists or preppers were equipped to work that type of property. Today, there are so many inexpensive power and water alternatives that the only “Major issue” left was building the foundation on poor soil.
Now there is a cool, inexpensive mobile solution for preppers, campers, and the military. Check out intershelters. From their website:
The InterShelter™, is a patented revolutionary portable shelter. Our Intershelter domes have bridged the gap from tents and trailers to traditionally built framed houses.
Made of a high-tech aerospace composite material, the Intershelter™ is built to sustain hurricane strength winds or earthquakes and insulated to stay warm in extreme arctic sub-zero degree weather or cool in hot desert climates, these portable dome structures can be assembled in just a few hours by three untrained people. The pieces can fit in the back of a pick up truck, single helicopter sling, or a bush cargo plane and can be set up on almost any terrain. These shelters are not only ideal for research needs, quarantine shelters, and emergency relief situations but will satisfy the needs of Homeland Security, the Military, Labor Housing, Homeless Communities and many more.
Really, when you start exploring these alternative housing methods the practical applications become endless. Imagine, owning 40 acres in the middle of the desert, taking your out your horses and quads, sleeping comfortably and safely under the night sky, and then simply packing up your shelter and going home. Or, it can be the perfect “bug-out” solution for those whom like to be prepared for the worst. Maybe, even start your own eco-tourism community to earn some extra income from your land… Or sell a land lease to hunters and give them a cool inexpensive place to stay. The possibilities are endless.
Whatever your needs are for raw land, here is another alternative to make using your land more enjoyable without having to pay a fortune for more traditional land and the high costs involved.
