This is a reasonably priced prepper home. |
I try to balance this blog in terms of providing useful and educational health information. I try to introduce useful preparedness information. Sometimes, preparedness and the need to prepare gives way to news and political information. I also try to relate something about trends in the world and in American culture.
Some time ago I mentioned that a great many "prepper" or survivalist homes have gone up for sale. In a prior series I explored why this is occurring. Some simply age out of their large preparedness home. Others have had a spouse die or become ill and are no longer able to live in a secluded location far from top medical care. Others have completed the original task and have chosen either to move out of the country and replicate their preparedness home, or to build something much larger to meet the needs of their adult children or to include their parents. In any event, a lot of preparedness homes come up for sale periodically. Some are quite expensive, but others provide what you may need including some acreage, at a reasonable price. Periodically, I profile one or two of these.
Keep in mind, I am not a realtor. I do not know the owners of these properties. I can't vouch for anything. Do your own due diligence and get any inspections you should.
There are many things which recommend Tennessee as a good place to live for preppers.
