Deep-diving Brenna's cross-country move: how to prioritize property searching
You've head us talk about Brenna's move from Colorado to Florida for months now but we've never dived into why her family is moving, when they're moving, and how they have prioritized property searches for their (hopefully) forever homestead. Join Kylie and Brenna as they walk through the background of her decision to up-root her family and move across the country from the Colorado Rockies to in-land Florida. She shares how they have narrowed down properties based on their preferences and priorities, goals for the property once they move, and more.
This podcast is a great listen for current homesteaders, those looking to start homesteading, or families who haven't taken the plunge yet but are hopeful to start.
