If there's anyone considering a move to Puna in the next few months, I'm looking to go in on a small property to test the waters and use as a stepping stone to finding and buying private acreage somewhere.
Ideally we'd each have a few thousand dollars to pitch in, buy a 3 acre lot with no neighbors, and share some of the improvement costs (perhaps even shared solar power, refrigeration, rain catchment, and a communal kitchen). Everyone would have their own private cabin/camp, but we could help each other build.
For the cost of living in an apartment for a few months you could live off-grid for a year, experience the lifestyle, and potentially even recoup your investment selling to other interested mainlanders in the future.
Thoughts?
