Part 1 of 3 The Biggest Mistakes People Make When Planning to Build an Off-Grid or Sustainable Home
If you’re planning on building an off-grid or sustainable home, I bet you are really excited to get started. But, where do you start?
Should you start looking for land?
Should you hire an architect?
Should you decide on a floor plan?
If you aren’t sure of the first step to take - you aren’t alone.
Sustainable homes have special considerations that most people don’t understand. In fact, most architects and contractors don’t understand the basics of sustainable and off-grid homes.
Designing and building this type of home is not necessarily difficult, but most people get frustrated and overwhelmed trying to figure out which step to take first.
Or they think they know how to start, but their first step ends up costing them thousands of dollars and a lot of frustration.
In this video series I’m going to let you in on the three most common and costly mistakes I see people make when they decide to build an off-grid or sustainable home.

In 2010, I moved my two young sons back to my hometown of Durango, Colorado to build an off-grid home and to start a new life.
Along with a talented carpenter, and a couple of helpers, we built a small solar-powered home we lovingly named Twisted Oak.
This magical home is not only beautiful, whimsical, and fun, but it heats and cools itself, generates its power, collects and heats its household water, and manages its waste in an environmentally responsible way.
I believe we can all live more abundant lives by lessening our impact on this precious planet and living more connected to cycles of nature. This is not about living in lack, but rather embracing the abundance we have by consuming and throwing away less.
