BUILDING an OFF GRID SURVIVAL HOUSE to pay for itself.

What happens here

The presenter travels to his property, which he refers to as 'Shangri-La Lodge,' and provides an exterior and interior tour of a manufactured home he plans to renovate. He emphasizes the structural integrity of manufactured homes, noting they are often built stronger than stick-built homes due to needing to withstand the rigors of transportation. He envisions this home as a personal 'shelter' while also serving as a potential rental property.

Goal: Assess the current state and potential of the manufactured home for conversion.

up there and how to become self-reliant good morning good evening good afternoon you guys we're up at shangri-la and we still got a ways to go on this property um but we are going to be starting a brand new project going to be taking a modular home and converting it over into a self-sustaining off-the-grid shelter and i want to know from you guys if that's something that you guys would like to go along for the ride on something like that let me explain my thinking up here the whole concept of being up here is because uh you know i've seen i see what's happening in the world today you guys it's it's obvious not just with you know wars and conflicts breaking out but also just locally like what happened in texas a few years ago when the snowstorm hit and the entire grid system failed and there were so many people put at risk and i wanted to create something that i could go up and still protect my family this is basically a modular home and one of the things there's this misconception about modular homes oh they're you know they're kind of sub par and actually nothing could be further from the truth the modular home is actually built much better than a stationary stick frame home for one reason and one reason only they have to withstand the rigors of traveling down the road getting moved into place getting jacked up jacked down and then finally set into place without shifting without moving so modular homes are already really structurally
