I was thinking about installing solar panels, a geothermal system that would give me heating/cooling, a well for water and a septic so, with that I guess I could get off the grid . I know it would be a bit of an investment but if I could put it in he mortgage would be easier...since I don't have the money to pay it up front
just an idea, I'm not very knowledgeable about life out in the country but I'd like to try
