Love this so much. You are very inspiring. As a single mum of 5 I done this same thing years ago. Wrote down every cent I spent, figured out how to save and do everything cheaper. Bought a block of land and built a big house. The bills were ridiculously high maintaining a huge house so I moved out to the country, built a smaller house and was able to pay it off in cash. Gradually becoming more sustainable with solar, water tanks, fruit trees, veggie gardens and hothouse. Now working on buying more acres and a tiny house as the older kids have moved out.
Congratulations...we had a dream to move to Tasmania....it's taken 5yrs but we just purchased 2.5acres in Strahan tasmania....wow it's such a wonderful dream come true
My partner and I left Sydney in 2007, and went travelling around Australia. We always thought we’d love to eventually buy some land and build our own home. Fast forward to today, after we found a great 3 acre block of land with a building entitlement and a dam, and a boundary fence back in 2012, we are now living in our own home mortgage free, with stand alone solar, rainwater tanks and reed bed system so we are not connected to any services. It took a lot of time to do, ran out of money many times, had help from some great neighbors and it was alllll worth it. Anything worth having is worth working hard for 🙂🙂🙂
I'm 47 years old mother of 5. I've budgeted my entire life my grandmother taught me these skills. To date, I have zero debt, never had credit cards, own my vehicles and home. I do not buy into consumerism and am definitely in control of my money. Budgeting is a discipline and you can reach your goals. Work out your Income, expenses what it costs to run your house hold weekly, monthly etc. One important lesson my grandmother taught me and I swear by this today. Live within your means, and grow your own veges/fruit. I still do this, my kids do too. Shes been gone for 13 years, her wisdom lives on in me and passed on to her great grand children. Well done you guys all the best for your future! From Coffs Harbour NSW 🤠🤙🏼
We are doing the same thing on 346 acres in Qld. Totally understand the ups and downs but we love it. We too had to change our perspective on life. 3 years now and loving it.
Absolutely agree with shared vision being crucial to success. This lifestyle was always my dream, from when I first married in the 1980s. My ex husband agreed that being self sufficient was a goid idea, but didn't share the passion and didn't have the same drive as me. I was doing all the research and planning, driving to look at properties etc and in the end it didn't come to anything. You both have to be fully on board. I'm now 62, divorced and raising my grandchildren, but I haven't given up my dream. I'm planning for making my dream a reality next year! Thanks for the post.....truly inspiring 😊
Well done! I admire your commitment. We did this in the 80s in Queensland on 40 acres and thoroughly enjoyed the hard work, isolation and struggle. The pioneering life was great. Best years of my life and I'm now 77 with amazing memories. Looking forward to seeing your progress. ❤🇦🇺
I love the part about rejecting consumerism, such an honest perspective on how emotionally difficult it can be to catch up with all your debts, facing the hard truth! Congratulations on all you have achieved so far!
Great to see you living your dream guys! A little bit of financial discipline can be the most liberating thing in the world. It's great to know that you are in control of your money and your lifestyle rather than vice versa! Enjoy!
On our Homestead property I have an average food bill including toiletries of under $30 per week. We have unlimited meat and fruit , eggs. Some vegetables. ( found they are a lot of work and many fail) where as there’s thousands of gd fruit everywhere. Passion fruit, bananas, raspberries, numerous citrus fruits. Then mangoes , grapes etc from Xmas. So can live very cheap. Great to hear about your debt reduction. My wife and I have always gone without so debt was never a problem. We paid cash for our place. But I know a lot of people aren’t like us and the way u did it is exactly how I tell people.
You are SO RIGHT about having and sticking to a budget being FREEING. As a person on a very low income, not by choice atm, making every single $1 work its hardest for me (not those making money off me) for a few years now, has been a very empowering experience, one I wish more people could realise. It makes you get very creative, look for all the ways you can get free stuff, stuff other people are giving away rather than putting in landfill, free community events, concerts, groups... it's all out there, especially here in Perth, Australia. Also learning to value, appreciate and treasure more the things you do have, including experiences with people you love, rather than waiting for the next dopamine hit of buying another thing, has been great. Not always easy, as you say, but great overall. Who knew that using both sides of every piece of paper, not just in your printer, not.buying more pens until the ones you have completely die etc,, can save you enough money in a year to pay for a woodwork course,.like it did for me. Keep sharing what you have and are learning in an AUS context. A revolution, significant change in how a society functions, happens just like this, one person,.one lesson, one inspiration at a time. Not to say we will all go off-grid, or could, but you never know how and with whom what you share will land.❤🎉❤
You are the inspiration! Honestly so many people don’t want to talk about being on a budget, they’re too proud and too much social pressure to show the right trappings of “success”. Success for us is happiness, peace and the time we spend with each other every day ❤️
@@ROCKPILEOffgridHomestead I'm not widely engaged with what is going on socially when it comes to what people have been conditioned to believe as success, other than mostly with my support team, many of whom are in their 20s. Some of what they have shared with me about this has been disturbing, because of how little control of what they earn they believe they can have, what they expect life to 'give them' because that is what the insidious nature of SM has done to them. I'm glad they are open to hearing about other ways of finding happiness and give it a go themselves. As an example, unless you pay for VIP tickets to a concert, you didn't get to enjoy it, are embarrassed by that. Or you NEED to have 30 'designer' perfumes otherwise you are someone to look down on, you have failed. I'm not overinflating these two examples. Tragic. I'll sign off being as I am showing my age on the internet, again.🤣🤣🤣
Lovely grounded no nonsense, un fluffy approach. All the best. PS. I know I couldn’t do it with my partner, he always feels he has to have some sort of another tool before he can do whatever. I’m the saver he’s the spender.
Great Inspiration for others ! Yes the biggest thing being 100% honest with yourself in every way before diving in & not being afraid to try things that are new to you, So guy's believe in yourself ! I've been 100% off grid for 11 years & love the FREEDOM ! Many changes along the way & I'm still building & changing but love every minute :)) Slowed down a bit with an injury but still getting a bit done, Life don't stop to wait for you if you have a DREAM don't pass it up ! 👍
Thank you so much for the video guys, my fiance and I are in the stage you are talking about right now. We also live in Perth but are working on our finances to get us 5+ acres, day to day it feels like it'll never happen but month by month we are getting closer and it's by doing alot of what you talked about. I think we really needed to hear this today and you've given us another boost to achieve what we want thanks again guys... ps you guys are really cute together, we love how you have each other's back, never change.
I love this thank you! What an achievement - well done! Will start looking at land in Qld soon. Im a single female in my 30s and i have to admit its a bit daunting doing it alone but Im up for it! 😅
Glad you put being on the same page as #1. Everything else becomes so much more difficult when you want to live this lifestyle and are with someone who doesn't. If you actually make the move to a homestead, you will end up doing 90% of the work
Great video, Amanda and Corey. Many important tips. I think each week there could be a fb post on homesteading group that everyone can link their current RUclips video to 😂 Tom and Sam just released a lovely video about just starting where you're at too.
Rates and insurance are huge costs. Can't change those unfortunately. Hard life but so satisfying. Good luck for the future from aging couple, one truly committed and one along for the ride 😅

Finances would be the biggest barrier, especially real estate prices. Farms have greatly increased in price over the last ten years or so. Even marginal or isolated properties now command big prices. This is the biggest barrier to buying a property in 2024. It’s basically impossible for someone starting out to buy a property when the first step on the property ladder could be $350k, a debt that could take decades to pay off.
Well done guys, great effort to get there and reach the place of your dreams! However, I gotta say it's been disheartening to watch so many of these videos and realise that everyone who does this has some experience and contacts in the building industry. I've worked in trees my whole life (pruning and removals for 20 years, consulting for the last 5) and wouldn't know how to put together a liveable shed to save my life. I'd be willing to learn as much as I can, but it seems like there are a lot of pitfalls for those who don't know what to look out for. I'd love to find a vid where someone has been successful in homesteading who doesn't have building experience or connections.
@@ZekaSkope totally understand. We’re aware it is a big advantage but those homesteaders we know who didn’t build from scratch bought established and learned the rest along the way. Not a solution but perhaps an option 🙏?
Grannie Cyndy from South Australia here. One of my 6 sons and his family live fully off grid too. One of the things they use is networking and bartering. Build up a good knowledge of your neighbours and nearby townships. Often his skills will help them and then vice versa in return. Don't give up if you want to make it happen.
