29k

You could build one of those for like a 10th of the price

leave the cities and larping as a peasnat is for morons and idiots

One severe storm and that shit is your coffin.

building codes in the land of the "free"

why don't you buy a $30,000 tent

Because I am not retarded.

holy shit, and that's seppo currency
get the fuck outta here

Incorrect. Yurts are quite strong.

This is the real answer. A lot of places outlaw them. My county outlaws them. The literal only option in my county is a stickbuilt house on a poured concrete foundation.

Has this guy never seen how they make American houses, they're $200,000+ tents

How? The roof is canvas or whatever

outhouse yurt sold separately

this thing has one room, pretty sure the "18 walls" bit is referring to the outer wall segments

Pair of scissors and anyone can cut right through my wall when I'm gone. That's why.

We had an earthquake once. I had recently built a wood framed house on some land that I bought. My closest neighbor was in an all brick house from the 40s. Half his house collapsed while mine had some drywall cracked.

this. literal mongols figured out how to build them

I believe the walls are solid, look like wood, have doors and windows

I remember when the big one was 17k

Have you come across any list of counties that are best for alternative housing?
Supposedly you can't rate by state, you need to do it by county.

Tree falls through yurt

tree falls through cardboard american hous

I fail to see a difference

A 220 square foot house is $5000, retard. Learn the difference between the cost of the house and the cost of the land it sits on.

They look comfy but I don’t want to live in a third world shithole with nigger rigged shanty towns of those things.

Hm.
I looked into those foam biodome deals. Not that I have the money anyways.

they could easily just be made to look like wood and be some pressed garbage, or foam, can't tell, and it seems to be a drawing anyway
but it's funny that having fires in it is so inherent it's built into the design to get rained in

I have not. County ordnances are labyrinthian. A lot of the times the information you seek isn't even on the internet. You'd need to call someone. It's a giant shit show.

this thing has one room,

And?

like for $50,000 they couldn't even stick some cheap double roof on it the fire could breathe through yet not have it get rained in

one person it's not all that bad but better not live around any bears

Might as well just build a tiny home

oy vey the building regulations goyim

It does look comfy what more does a man need? I still don’t want towns of these things tho

Paying $50,000 for a tent

I am so ready for a Recession to completely wipe out this hyperinflated, 100% fake and gay economy. It can't come soon enough.

even fucking straight up mobile home trailers are way better for the money

NIMBY Zoning Laws are a cancer that needs to be done away with already.

the boomers would lose all their money if the young were allowed to build yurts in the forest and sign up for starlink

50k for a tent? only in america.

fuck me, i could get the building in a box kit and make a steel building to live in for a third of the cost of a faggy yurt

I'm building one right now. Filming the process

You'd still need to install at least a septic tank to make it legal to live in on a property. Which is 10K more. Then pay for plumbing if you want to use it. If not then you'll have a dormant septic tank and an outhouse I guess. No electricity. No internet. No phone charging.

Oh and this is if you're willing to buy unzoned property, which is basically the ozarks. Hope you love mosquitos.

If you're gonna drop 30k on "off-grid" living it probably makes infinitely more sense to get a van. (which still sucks)

Man a yurt is better than a fucking van. You can't drop 30 grand on it unless you make a multi yurt complex or something. wtf is 30 grand about a single yurt?

A medieval peasant would cut green wood or coppice, then use straw bales, rammed earth, stone, daub, lime etc to have a livable home for near free. Look at the Amish.

The scam today is multiple fold. Inflation drives prices of assets up while keeping wages down. So materials today are unaffordable despite the huge increase in production and stagnant population sizes in the west. 10 square meters of gravel here cost 250$. That's worthless rock that's everywhere. Even a rock crusher is 500$ per day of use. Cement is a carefully regulated cost and building codes ensure you gotta use specific materials unless you're in the middle of nowhere. All these are assets and raise with inflation.

Housing demand is actually relatively low. Most countries like the US already have enough housing units to house everyone and more. Housing is used as investment or glorified casino chips, since price almost always goes up. Keeping it expensive beyond most people's reach is a feature. Zoning laws, hoas, and pensioner homeowners concerned with assets and not wages profit from this so are incentivised to keep pushing prices up. The net result is that housing arrive everything around it is a total scam and exploitation. Worst of all even if you get a free house you quickly realize maintenance, property fees and regulations can easily bleed you as much as renting while keeping you stuck to a place, creating the delusion that homeownership is bad.

You will own nothing and you will be happy" is an economic process, not a conspiracy or future plan. A near 0 cost house built with local materials carries a near 0 cost of maintenance too. That's a big problem for the economy. With power tools and machinery building at near 0 cost is absolutely trivial compared to your medieval peasant's time. Yet all power and value in society comes from spinning hamster wheels, because the hamsters are too stupid to tell the difference as long as they're fed at the end of the day.

Post Khadafi yurts living in Manhattan during visit to UN

The fucking fireplace's in those are always a bitch to operate and break easily because of the air intake/smoke release system. I will admit that yurts do keep their warmth they build in the day though, the glass window at the top really greenhouses it.

My reasons for going yurt are as follows:
Building it on land that already has a house. Since it doesn't have a foundation (deck) it's an accessory building and doesn't require a permit.
My supplier is way cheaper than OPs example
Since it's portable I can move it to a new property or sell it in the future
Circular buildings are aesthetic

The land to build it on is $180,000.

It's not about the space and comfort of a yurt vs a van, it's about where on earth are you going to put the yurt, how you're going to shower, shit, get electricity and so on.

For the past 5 years I constantly get this yearning to go to central asia and become a steppe nomad, just breed horses and live in a yurt, breed my hapa wife and have 10 kids each tall and strong from mare milk and horse meat.
I have been getting this yearning every day. I lessen it with driving lots but every day it gets stronger. I have been thinking on learning how to ride horses and learning basic survival skills and fucking off away from this shithole.

Oh and this is if you're willing to buy unzoned property

>And it gets better , which I mean worse ...

You have to find "Unincorporated land" -- meaning not apart of a Town and not apart of any County planning -- so Ozarks
And since you are not in a Town -- no fire service -- even if the town is near by -- they ( the Fire department ) will just come and watch your house burn .
and no garbage pick up . -- there is a reason why old couches and fridges litter the lawns of those Ozark homes.

go to central asia and become a steppe nomad

you're implying of course this lifestyle still exists even for them
we don't give a shit what indians do on the reservations because the reservations are worthless, and if we ever discover anything there that we missed that's valuable enough we will absolutely just eminent domain them and snatch it, lel
I seriously doubt nomadic people in asia have it any better or are just allowed actually valuable land, all land is owned by somebody now, even fucking antarctica

I dont want to mine or any of that shit, just grasslands are good enough for horses to eat and from them I could get meat and milk and be food independent. I would trade the meat and milk to people to buy any tools or anything I might need. It would be dope, but that is just a dream, instead tomorrow I will get in my car hop on traffic and go into a job I despise.
And that lifestyle still exists for them I met a kazakh guy who said there are people still living like that.

Fag

*shoots arrow into throat*
fuck you nigger

because that's how much a 3bed/4bath 2story with garage should cost

For me it’s been a fantasy that I will move to Australia for the fishing and surfing living out in the bush with a qt bogan chick. Riding dirt bikes and camping in a Toyota Land Cruiser. I watch a lot of fishing videos girl there and it just seems like the life. I’m starting to think it won’t happen tho

what land do I put it on?

The literal only option in my county is a stickbuilt house on a poured concrete foundation.

You mean literally better than a shitty tent

How to you go to another room if your bitch is about to make you do a DV?

The land you take for yourself. Now set sail, Bjorken. Destiny awaits.

I am paying off a debt my dad incurred due to health reasons otherwise I would already be on my way to do my dream. There is no place for me in modernity. January next year I am going to learn about horses and going to teach myself all i need and then heading out.

I live in a 43ft yurt that's divided into 4 rooms, living room, 2 lofts, kitchen, storage room and living room, 1 1/2 bath. Its on 7 acres, I got everything for under 100k, and have septic system, central heating(ele cooling and wood stove), goats, chickens, greenhouse, and a pole barn shop. I did this last year so don't tell me it cost to much or some building regulations bullshit. And yes I'm married, I have 3 children all homeschooled, and my oldest just scored 99 percentile on TCAP. Stop kneeling to urban life because of "muh buy thing faster". Most things you want/have are trivial and make you a slave to the system.

Imaging having to cook, eat, shit, sleep and fuck in the same room.

Have you never lived in a studio apartment before?

29k isn't a lot of money lol...

We're talking about real money not Tim Horton play bux.

for a gay ass tent it is. are they at least real animal hide for that price?

You wouldn't believe how little you can do with your own property in the "Land of the Free". You have to pay rent to your government landlord, who then lays down an endless list of conditions for usage of your land. For example, in most of America it is illegal to camp on your own land. Yes, you read that right. Living on a tent ON YOUR OWN LAND is fucking illegal in muttland.

I hope you make your dream real. I’m a half cripple neet that couldn’t even leave the country because I would be too much of a medical burden on wherever I end up going too. You should do it tho bro especially if you are healthy make your dream a reality brush one of the horses for me when you do

Water tank, boiler, compost tank, solar panel, cheap rural land

I'm doing tankless heater, Centrex 2000 composting toilet, solar+generator to battery, and wood stove for the bulk of my heat

Thank you brother if it ever happens I definitely will think of this little convo of ours.

I'll take yours then, thanks

Does Canadian zoning laws allow this?

Like could I put this on a piece of rural land and connect it to a sewer, water system and electricity and live in it like a modern home?

buy land in hudspeth county or Brewster country tx

buy solar panels and a yurt/Amazon home/camper and eventually even make an adobe or rammed earth home

allow other anons to settle on your land with solar panels and homes of their own and ask for just enough rent to import water

set up local intranet and meshtastic communications to play vidya and shitpost

anons could travel to nearby towns to food kitchens and bum off charities for food

start a cottage industry such as 3d printing, embroidery, cnc milling, ect for extra income

Enough people do this and the system crashes.

Main blame for houses being expensive goes to goverment and loicence.
Problem would be easily solved with abolishing building permits and right to build alone laws. At least for single story housing.
Also 0 taxes on first 2 3 houses and 10% tax on 4th one.

based yurt enjoyer, yurts are very energy efficient relative to its materials, super portable (although that's not valuable in stationary living), and very cheap

It’s great, right up until you have to shit in a bucket filled with sawdust.

Threy dont let you do this. They dont let you do rammed earth or subteranian housing.

most of america is full of old houses that don't have central air or working plumbing but are still nicer and cheaper than a yurt

How bout i YURT a massive log of shit directly into your mouth you fucking faggot.

Cities are full of shitskins now.

Brewster and Hudspeth county will. The courthouse in Hudspeth is made out of local adobe. Those areas have literally no building codes.

You can lay a slab and build a steel Quonset hut for 25k. You could also buy a decently appointed used 26’ RV with a diesel engine, electricity, a refrigerator, plumbing, and gray and black tanks. A yurt is 10th Century tech, I wish the retard who invented it was here, I’d flush his rat face in the fucking toilets

council wont approve

I once saw a show about those being popular in Hawaii

I'm the emissary of the khan
