Chip, if you saw the four hours of footage that didn’t make the final video, I think you would unsubscribe immediately 🤣 Seriously, the “ways to make money on RU-vid” guide says to sell Ebooks! I just wouldn’t feel right doing that because I want everyone to enjoy my videos. Besides if I saved it for a book, I’d have no content and you’d be forced to watch Kenai talking all “Scottish” for 20 minutes! 🤨

Thank you for the shout out. Another thing people need to consider are mosquitoes. Some areas don't have any, 15 minutes away, you can't be outside in the summer. I bought my first 5 acres at my cabin from the state. Their online auction is only open to state residents. I believe their "over the counter" sales is open to everyone. Also, most municipalities regularly sell land. I bought my second 5 acres from the MatSu borough. Another item to consider is weather. Winter temperatures, snow amounts, rain amounts, wind, etc. Good video! 👍

I am a retired real estate broker. 20 years in Las Vegas Nevada and five in Salt Lake City Utah. It may be different in Alaska, but we would split commissions as buyers agents and sellers agents. So you could search all the listings available in the area for a client And if your listings did not fit their needs you could show them all the listings that met their criteria. And share your knowledge of the market to get them the best deal for their needs
@AloneinRemoteAlaska
@AloneinRemoteAlaska 2 года назад
It works that way in Alaska as well. I think I am more the type that will do most of the work I can and then get a professional involved. When I purchased my house in Colorado, I pretty much asked the realtor to show my places I sent her. She told me I did her job but I couldn't do any of the process after I found the place! RESPECT to you for doing that job for 25 years! :-)

Really appreciate you including all the channels, there are a few I need to check out. The land info is very valuable, I would also be interested in how to go about researching employment opportunities as well. I know you work remotely, but for the rest of us that may not be an option.

I just couldn’t resist the Attenborough bit! You really should check out those other channels if you can. The channels I mentioned I watch religiously! They have all taught me something. As far as employment and the usual Indeed, Monster etc there is one called Coolworks. That covers all states too. It’s mostly seasonal work but they have many year round jobs posted as well. Also Alaska gov has a section. I have seen some really nice jobs listed there. Some are work from home. But its been awhile since I have been on there! Thank you for always commenting too Ashley! I see you on the other channels commenting there too! Very cool! 👌

@@AloneinRemoteAlaska I am familiar with cool works and I have been on Alaska gov before. I am not really familiar with the other sites. I have a couple of years to figure it out, but it's always good to be in the loop with the ever changing job market. I have had the same job for almost 30 years so that's probably why it is something I think about alot when it comes to relocating.

In that case Indeed, Simply Hired and Monster will have a huge number of listing for Alaska or any state! Same job for 30 years wow! That’s almost unheard of anymore but so cool! It’s a big deal to leave a job and to find a job. Where I am located, if I lose my job, I will only have RU-vid and its not paying a lot.

Your so correct. It's very expensive to live in Alaska.. Depending on where you are in Alaska you'll be paying double, triple or higher for fuel, home needs, milk, eggs, etc. No more homesteading. That ended in 1986 I believe. My Cousin just packed up from Texas to Alaska in the late 70's & got his spot but had to get a degree & a great paying job so he could stay. It's not a place for your average middle income family or couple such as my Wife & I. I hear Pueblo Co is the cheapest place to retire or live now days & it's beautiful. However, buying now is the wrong move because of the Fed raising interest rates, cost of living, etc.
@AloneinRemoteAlaska
@AloneinRemoteAlaska Год назад
I have been through Pueblo Colorado (my old home state before Alaska) and it is a nice place BUT it's not perfect. I believe it has the highest crime rate in Colorado but I haven't looked at that for a few years. When I drove through it to go camping and fishing, it was a nice place to stop! Yeah the homesteading act ended in the mid 80's and to be honest I am glad it did. The beauty of Alaska is there is not a lot of people here. As for expensive, absolutely. For me, Colorado was expensive already so I notice the prices being about what I had always paid (groceries) but I also have to factor in the gas it takes me to get to the grocery store! For me, where I live, there are no property taxes, building codes or HOA's so my expenses are somewhat low. It's definitely not normal Alaska living especially if you live in the big cities. But I also don't have all of the conveniences of cities so that could be why living in Alaska is not so expensive for me. 😉🧡

My first property purchase was by way of the Over-the-counter program through the State. It was off the Parks Highway north of Healy. I did all the Google Earth and DNR stuff. I even talked to the letter carrier who covered the area. But I never set foot on it before buying it. Big mistake.

LOL I have DSL and its just as shady! My cell reception is pretty good though! I get the most bars in the outhouse for some reason though! :-)

One thing you should be careful some realtors turn swamps in to Lakes

Eh, I've lived here forever. Had a place in Whittier. Had motorhomes, went back in the ranges w/4 wheelers, worked the Slope, etc. . Just a word of warning. I met a guy this summer, who was from Maryland. He'd come up a couple times in the summer and "fell in love with Alaska". But, it wasn't true love. I saw him in January, looked a little haggard. "Is it always this cold". "Does it ever stop snowing". And my favorite; "How deep do you let the snow get on the roof before you shovel it". Priceless.

Maryland gets some snow but not nearly as much as Alaska. Where I came from (Colorado) the snow fall isn't quite as much as Alaska but it prepared me enough! But those questions really are the first signs of the end! :-) I guess if you only visit during the spring/summer, Alaska is very nice and beautiful! Easy to fall in love with. But you have to fall in love with the cold and snow or just remain a tourist! Alaska's four seasons are Winter, June, July and August! It snows a lot here! :-)

I found my house to on Zillow I found a realtor but I was the one who found the house and Zillow worked for me.

I only used Zillow to locate my cabin and I am very glad I did! But flying to Alaska to walk the property and cabin sealed the deal for me. Made an offer within 30 minutes! :-)

Great info 👍 I'm gonna be going up for work for a season and scouting a plot for sale. But what is the chance of finding private non listed land for sale with out a realtor?
@AloneinRemoteAlaska
@AloneinRemoteAlaska 2 года назад
Keep searching on Zillow and move the slider from "Agent listings" to "other listings". Those are the for sale by owner. You can also find land on Alaska List and Craigslist. And believe it or not, some people just put up for sale signs. Especially during tourist season! I hope you find something! :-)
