Have you guys seen the free homesteading plots in the Midwest?

2017-09-24 16:23:08 UTC  

nope

2017-09-24 16:23:19 UTC  

I'll copy and paste from our Discord

"The city of Marquette, Kansas is offering free building lots to families
who are looking for a really great small town, in the heart of America,
to call home. The building lots are located in a development on the
west edge of town with beautiful, open views of evening sunsets and
the Smoky Valley"
You must already be a family man, as the introduction suggests. Here's a link to the application: http://www.freelandks.com/files/city_of_marquette_land_application.docx.pdf
Definitely a compelling program, though
"The city has waived all utility hook-up fees and there is no building
permit fee. All utilities, including natural gas, will be on the property."

I found other free lot offers in other town in Kansas, and also in Nebraska, Ohio, and Iowa
Some articles criticizing the free lots mainly focus on the obstacles that established families have to relocation - not being able to find an equivalent job in their field, not being able to sell their old home and build a new one, etc

2017-09-24 16:25:53 UTC  

You'd need to have the funds to build the houses, but ... free land!

I've made beer, it's not as glamorous as it looks.
