To start I am currently involved with my friend building and creating an off grid home in southern Tennessee. I have have
experience in construction and telecom. What we have accomplished so far is to build a strawbale house. we have begun to cultivate our orchard and garden. I am not lacking in any skills for this sort of lifestyle. I have the skills to plan and build a home very inexpensively. I have gained considerable experience with an off grid home and many of the details needed to create a functional home. My 720 square foot house has cost me $3500 in materials as i did all the labor. I currently live in the home. My estimated costs for completion will be another $3000-$4000.
My problem. I am divorcing. My ex has family in southern Maine and has moved back there with our children. It is beginning to appear that if I want quality contact with my children I will have to spend a lot of time in Maine. I have no support or resources in Maine. My family is from Colorado. My problem is that if I moved to Maine now I would be effectively homeless.
I am looking for help finding a place to live that would be suitable for me and 2 young children when I have them. Without resources in Maine or the surrounding area I cannot effectively plan or prepare for living in Maine and providing my children the kind of experiences I want them to have.
Any Ideas would be helpful. Thank you.
On the other hand, the job market never fully recovered from the crash of EIGHTEEN thirty.
