Top 10 TOOLS to FIND YOUR HOMESTEAD - Ep. 004
Вставка
- Опубліковано 1 сер 2024
- Sander shared that he wanted us to create a video specifically on helpful tools to find your homestead / country home / dream property. In reality, we used far more than 10 tools-but we would say these were some of the most helpful to us. You may recognize that I covered some of these tools in the last episode, but we wanted to expand on them here.

Hi!! I’m a GIS analyst!! So awesome that you guys used it!! There’s so so much more stuff you can do with it! It’s amazing!!
Warms my heart to see that there are some in the younger generation already mindful of the importance of a homesteading environment. Seems the majority of people of all ages don't value communal / generational living possibilities. The older pop can benefit from the youth knowledge of tech advancements etc. and brute strength lol. And the older bring important knowledge on growing, canning, freeze drying, smoking meats, and which plants (and which parts of plants) are great for overall well being & medicinal purposes.
If you are "future proofing" your property, not enough can be said on importance of generational households. Very beneficial to all.
Man o man, i learn new things everyday from these two. Ah. I am a fan.
That was a lot more informative than I was expecting
Great video! The SunSeeker tip will be really useful for choosing an allotment garden to rent.
This is really great information. Thank you, Sander and Summer!
Sander, plz get a real estate license and find my next 🏠 you can probably get it with your eyes closed. I’m really enjoying theses videos. Thank you for sharing so much info!
Such great info!!
Great tips! Yay! You addressed the hunting concern . Thank you!! 👏🏼👏🏼🙏🏼
This is so helpful Summer and Sander! I appreciate you. Just starting my property-buying journey!
Incredibly useful information thank you for sharing.
I am so thankful you guys did this. We’ve had so many issues over the past 3 years trying to search for our dream property. Any and all things extra is so much appreciated. I’m on episode 4…. Ty all!!! I’m incredibly excited to watch this series.
Amazing both of you are talented educated and we learned alot from you 2 Thank you God bless both of you and stay safe.
Really cool. I have to watch this video again. Thanks.
:) in Ithaca this weekend looking around her, Spencer, Windsor, Binghamton, Berkshire… trying to get the “feel” of where we want to end up. Thx so much!!!This video is a great help!
good to see more of the flock members in these videos. thanks for doing this. Despite not being based is US I find that the experience you guys are sharing is transferable to other locations on our globe . so much of a great vibe too!
Fun to see the houseplants slowly encroach into the previously sterile living space. :-) question: why does Cornell own so much forested land? Is it just for preservation or more like land banking?
There is definitely more green creeping in. I hope not too much though, because this place has to go under some renovation! But on your second question: Cornell is the second largest landowner in New York State (aside for New York state!). They eat up a lot of land because 1.) universities don't have to pay taxes the same way that individual landowners do (see here: www.washingtonpost.com/news/grade-point/wp/2016/07/08/why-should-rich-universities-get-huge-property-tax-exemptions/) and 2.) they end up using the land to lease out or use as research plots for students or for future building sites. Actually, there is a big contention here because they are also now buying up a lot of buildings in the area and then renting them out to students as well, so it's quite annoying to the town. It's a love-hate relationship for sure. Some of the forested land Cornell owns is actually old-growth with the intention of keeping it old-growth. So it's not all bad, but a larger dynamic that would be an interesting discussion over the dinner table!
@@FlockFingerLakes thanks for answering. I suspected it was a way of banking in resources for the future. Definitely an over dinner discussion about access to land etc..
Isn't part of the reason that Cornell is a Land Grant College see en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Land-grant_university
They have a huge endowment and they won't spend it on the kids.
I thoroughly enjoyed learning about all the technology available. Thank you!
Hi Summer and Sander! This wasn't something I needed, but I'm sure it will be very helpful for a lot of people. Thank you for putting this together and sharing!
Excellent and helpful. Thanks.
That's funny I just got onX for turkey hunting in the spring. You can also set photo waypoints in there.
How did ppl buy houses before internet 😵ouf ... oh lala... so overwhelming! Thx guys this is golden info.
Great info! I've been searching for a while and didn't know about half of these, but I will definitely use them now.
🌓 Hello Summer and Saunder, thanks so much for this video because as I mentioned in the comment section of the last video, we are gonna continue to do this on our own ( buying our properties) without a realtor, the information in the video is like gold to my family and I. Wow like not one realtor has never said anything about this, I had to ask questions about the land and so much stuff, I mean important stuff, because these purchases are not small and it’s life changing, so it’s really important that we are aware of everything before we purchase land. And why wouldn’t they want to make sure the client have all this information ? It’s crazy because the realtor wants their commission and for what? I don’t think so, especially when we are doing all the work. Now I have looked on farm and land websites they specifically give you so much information and videos sometimes of the properties, they also have contact information for the sellers sometimes as well. I also check Zillow, homeland country property for sale.com, Sotheby’s international realty, www.s eland group.com. So many to name but, here’s a few. I will keep you updated as we find our dream properties. Bless you and your families. Thanks so much for sharing this wonderful video and looking forward to seeing more. 🙋🏾♀️🦋
Hey Kim, sounds like you are doing it right from the get-go! Honestly, we wish we had a lot of this information at our fingertips from the start. I think we would have felt "off to the races" from the get-go. But sounds like you had a very similar situation to ours in the beginning to (with the real estate agent). We shared with them in the beginning that "we need hand-holding" because we've never done this before. But we got educated pretty quickly that if we were to do this right, we'd have to do far more research. Thanks for sharing other places you're going to find your dream property! Sending blessings your way. - Summer Rayne
@@FlockFingerLakes 🌓 Thanks so much Summer Rayne for your kinds words, I truly appreciate it, and gets great that you all are learning more information now, so when you purchase more properties in the future, you will be armed with an arsenal of information. I’ll definitely let you know more from my end as things progress. Have a wonderful rest of the day and week.🙋🏾♀️🦋
Great info! Thanks!
This was extremely interesting and useful. We did a lot of this when we looked for property in NH.
Many town meetings are now streaming too. Great tips that people who don’t work in real estate or land development might not know.
That's a great tip Emily.
Nice! Before, I was using state & county tax maps to find most of the information, which is kind of a torture since most of the local government websites are from the 90s. Really useful resources!
That Sun Seeker app would also be helpful in indoor gardening since you can check how the sun moves in your area. It's not free but there are some free similar apps. Great video!
Absolutely: it's a very good call :)
Super useful! 💚
Glad it was helpful!
Thanks for these tips guys! My partner and I are currently looking for our own place and your videos have been super helpful.
Our pleasure! Best of luck on your search!
Great information....💗
Glad it was helpful!
Thank you for a great video, I just found your new channel today!
Glad you enjoy it! and welcome to the new channel!
Very interesting. Might have to use some of this stuff for my own land hunting!
Please do! That's why we're doing this :)
Been a while since I played with ArcGIS but this would be a fun way to get back into it. Looking forward to when I can afford to search for my own property.
Had to wipe the cobwebs away for sure on ArcGIS. It's amazing how you need a tutorial in it when you're so many years removed! - Summer Rayne
Hi guys, I am not living in US but found this video super informative. I will defo download soil an sun app as I got larger garden 🪴 . We moved in just over year ago and some plants 🌱 doing better then others and I think that could be soil issue... great video 👍
Hi Jerry, very glad this is actually useful for you. I'm sure there are some equivalents to the USDA soil maps, etc. where you are, even if they are more analog.
Thank you for this! I’m a UK resident considering looking in to buying a “smallholding” (what homesteads are called here). Most of these apps or websites don’t work here, but I still got some good tips from this. I was wondering whether you would consider doing a more general do’s and don’ts video?
Glad that some of it was helpful. I would definitely look for some equivalents (as far as tools go) in your area. Like mymaps.google.com, ArcGIS, should work where you are. And I know you don't have USDA soil maps, but there are likely an equivalent, even if it's an analog version. I'm not sure if you saw this video, but you may extract some good "do's" and "don'ts" from here: ua-cam.com/video/y2NpH4_zRcs/v-deo.html
@@FlockFingerLakes thank you for the reply! And no I didn’t see that video for some reason, how odd! Thanks :)
👍👍
Hi Summer and Sander, greetings from Serbia ! How to find your email to send the questions ?
We have an email on this youtube account for inquiries.

Hi! Anyone knows of similar tools for the UK? :)
Definitely feel free to share if there are equivalents to the UK. I know obviously the UK doesn't have USDA soil maps, but maybe you have analog versions, like: www.landis.org.uk/ .... And does mymaps.google.com and ArcGIS also work in the UK? I imagine so...
anyone else lost?
what was confusing for you?
