Your wife at home alone….Que up the Mailman…he will deliver that package.

What's great about living on the lake in the winter is you can raid all your snowbird neighbors' houses

There's a frequent flyer to the FB babysitter groups for the area. The family used to live down by Harrison. She'd be looking for someone to watch her FOUR kids for 10 bucks an hour. She would claim that she had sitters taking that pay and coming to her, yet here she was posting over and over and over again. She doesn't post as much because she moved into town.

I appreciate your videos for information content but feel compelled to tell you what influence they’ve had in our household - my husband and I have been looking for a few years now for a conservative place to settle down and raise our child among at least a higher demographic of like minded folk (traditional Christian). Idaho is top on our list to check out, or I should say was. Without ever having visited the state, after watching most of the videos on this channel, my husband has ruled it out as a possibility even for a summer cabin. He has been convinced there is just too much wrong with Idaho and that it’s too dangerous depressing and cold - which imho is nonsense because I think there is a lot right with Idaho! I know people there that live such wholesome and beautiful lives and being surrounded by that kind of natural beauty is not to be taken for granted when most people in the US live in artificial concrete jungles - like us. Sure you can’t go strolling around Idaho without consideration of grizzlies or wolverines or whatever, but in the city we live where we pay 5 digit taxes we can’t go walking either or we will get mugged! No joke. No state is perfect and living anywhere can be hard, especially as an outlier which is what being a Christian family feels like these days. I can understand some dummies selling everything and running off to Idaho to live off grid without knowing how to even boil water are going to suffer. But most people just want to get away from liberal cities/states and politics and aren’t idiots. I’m not sure if the consistent negative spin on everything Idaho is for views or ratings, but I don’t think anyone watches these videos and then feels very good about Idaho. In our household, it has had massive negative impact on even visiting the place. I hope my husband changes his mind because I have been dreaming of Idaho for a long time and I don’t want to bury that dream until I see it for myself, which may never happen now. Not your fault or problem, you’re just presenting content which is valid and true and I do appreciate it - but consider the positives and that some people are easily swayed by constant negative spin - and sadly my husband falls in that camp. Hoping it’s just temporary, but he was particularly freaked out by the Wolverine video. I wish I was joking..

Do you have riparian rights in Idaho?

Did the smell from Tony's on the lake find you when filmed this on the lake? You look close to a nice Italian dinner!!

My back and knees hurt from racing motocross in the 70’s when dirt bikes had NO suspension………

We have a great house 1/2 mile from the lake. It’s great being so close! If we had a slip for our boat, we might get out on it more,but, the cost is very high here, so, in the driveway under a cover it is……..

Please do more videos about lakefront properties. All of your videos are very helpful. Thank you.

Trent, my wife and I were looking at lakefront homes in Hayden lake for my daughter who lives in London and when I seen this video you just put out, I have to say you are spot on!! everything you said is true!! we even heard from some locals around there that some of these houses are sliding into the lake and having problems now.

I’m shocked you didn’t mention mosquitos!!

I'm old enough to remember when land lines were carried on poles.

I’m kind of scared of the people this video is for. 😂

Like my dad would say at his small lake front, if you have to be somewhere on a January morning this would be a bad place to be. Like him I just winterize it and not even shovel the 200 yard driveway just to sit in the dark.

I’m gonna move There with all My black friends it seems nice

🇺🇸🇺🇸Conservative🇺🇸🇺🇸 Constitutional Republic ✝️In God We Trust✝️

like....think love button needed.....I am down to a half acre....hauled 4ft a compost on it, how can I leave!...mmm...?...Idaho? Plus vs Iowa, those wild animals!

God, guns, and liberty - I pray that Idaho is in my future. Thanks for a great video.

Great video!

How is it with diversity?

America isn't the land of the soft, but it has become it.

compared to Duluth, MN, the snowfall is about half in CDA of what it is in Duluth. So its not as brutal as some places, but if you are from Los Angeles then yeah its probably a shock to see the snowfall and dark long nights. People from Svalbard will laugh at CDA winters.

Spokane was a great lil city way back in the day, Don't let CDA or any other place for that matter become like where I am in Central Oregon the Bend Redmond Sisters even Prineville area. Complete mess of traffic and roads not able to handle it, homeless everyplace and they are catering to them with places to park and converting motels. We have had our share of homeless brush and forest fires this year as well. Last election Deschutes county voted blue for the first time in decades because of all the cali folk barging in and voting for the policies they moved away from. Also seems ol joe placed about 8 to 10,000 illegals here strategicly starting around 2022 with many of them put up in brand new low income aprtments and none seem to speak much english, CDA still seems like gods country compared to Bend which used to be.

Full of Nazi’s. Hard pass

This guy - bOtH SiDeS sTaRt WaRs 🤡 Name one DJT started

Interesting how racist your comments are..

I’m gonna move all my black friends out here, fingers crossed we like it!

Stay in Cali if you like your immaculate, over governed neighborhoods.

Groundbreaking for the 3 people thats gonna move to Idaho in the next decade

I moved to Sagle May 3 2023. Sand Point and Ponderay is 10 minutes away. I love the small spot on Hwy 95.

We bought an Idaho house five years ago based on the photos we viewed on Zillow and a friend and real estate agent getting into the house to confirm that the photos were accurate. I did NOT have a signed agreement with the agent before viewing the house on Zillow.

A guy must be savvy to do this but if you can definitely must worth it

Planning on moving from Kentucky to northern Idaho. The culture seems pretty similar, but the scenery and the weather up there 🤌. Seems like it gets hotter down here every year. Plus, there's 5 warehouses for every blade of grass, perpetual major road work, and two cities controlling the politics for the rest of the state. Ideally, I'll be there by '27.

No good paying jobs minimum wage $7.50 that should tell you everything you need to know

Portland is dealing with the consequences of voting in progressive zealots. I left Oregon for Texas 15 years ago because I saw the writing on the wall.

1) "Be wary of crime!" "True, I've only heard of this in Washington, but maybe it could happen in Idaho, too..." 2) "You might get lonely if you don't have friends" 3) "When you buy a house, there is no landlord. So you gotta fix your water heater yourself" 4) "If you move away from everyone, it takes a while to drive back to everyone" 5) "Idaho is growing, so you might see construction" 6) "there is Radon in the soil here. Yes, its everywhere, but its here also. 7) "Many areas have a 1% chance of flood". 8) If you move up to the mountains, you'll get less/more sun/snow. Fun Fact about North Idaho... There are more miles of dirt road than paved road. "Official" dirt roads.

In my limited experience with real estate, the concept of "buyer's agent" or "seller's agent" is totally misleading. Neither of these agents are representing buyer or seller, they are trying to facilitate a transaction because they don't get paid unless a transaction takes place. Furthermore, there are massive conflicts of interest in the industry. If a real estate agent or someone they know closely also buys and sells property for rentals, short term, investment or for another LLC they own that's a MASSIVE red flag. Don't ask someone to get you a good deal for you if they are making money off of good deals in the same market. You think they're going to get you a good deal for 6% when their other company can flip it into a rental and make twice that every year forever? Same problem for sellers. If they like your house they'll absolutely talk you down to a lower price so their friend or LLC can snap it up for themselves and pocket the commission on top of it. If you think this eliminates most real estate agents, you are correct.

i asked siri to get me directions to rathdrum and she routed me to restrooms in the area.

Nice video. You're obviously more conservative, as am I, and I can see some of those political opinions being reigned in hard. But I simply wanted to say that I think you made a great effort to be as agreeable as you can be to everyone, which is not always easy to do, so good job. You set a good example.

would love to see idaho i live in kentucky alot of nature but got good fiber internet in the bigger towns and cities but a 10 minute drive from nowhere and we basically have no gun laws either

Truth of the matter: North Idaho is FULL of crap. I remember decades ago when Oregon's governor, Tom McCall, announced: "Come visit! But don't stay." Oregon is now half ruined. I'm a native Idahoan with worldwide experience, and I can tell you that you would be happy in Coeur d'Alene and North Idaho if you are a right-wing extremist. As Provo, Utah, is Happy Valley for Joe Smith's true Mormon believers, North Idaho is wall-to-wall with Neo-Nazism. Extremists have all but destroyed the local college. Reasonable officials, teachers and residents have had to flee. One of the initiating events was when Los Angeles police officers who beat the bejesus out of Rodney King fled here and set up camp. There is no effort their inheritors won't resort to in their so-far-successful attempt to takeover the Idaho state government, once a model of Western live-let-live moderation. It's the fact of the matter (check it out!)

I built my own. I have experience in all trades. I excavated and installed sewer and water. Waited around for 4 months to get an available foundation contractor, paid thousands for thawing frozen soil for the foundation as well as for the underground plumbing. Framed it myself and my wife whilst it snowed 8ft (record snowfall), using wall-jacks and a wife busy with two babies. I skipped work for 18 months and did everything except the rough plumbing and electrical and hvac. I paid out the wazoo for those subcontractors, so I fired them and did the finish plumbing and electrical myself. Now here I sit, somehow we're still married. I do not qualify for any financing because I didn't have any income for 18 months, it is finished and am stuck with a maxed credit card. If anyone wants to lend me $25,000 and earn anything less than 18% interest, let me know.

I've been living in Western WA for almost 17 years and my sinus' are killing me, I'm sick of trees and all my current activities take me to Eastern WA anyways. I will be move to Southern Idaho but not Boise, I'm tired of living in bigger cities and my careers gave me the skills I need to do anything there.

I moved my family here a few years ago and now live in Coeur d'Alene, but not before a year and a half of research. Every year since then, I am so grateful to be among like-minded Americans and amidst the beauty of this area. I love it here. I recently took my wife and youngest son to visit relatives in southern Commiefornia, and upon returning after two weeks, I nearly kissed the ground at my home, so glad to be back. My wife didn't want to be far out in the rural area, and I didn't want to live in a place where I would hear my neighbor flush his toilet while I'm eating dinner, so God brought us to a lovely neighborhood with great neighbors. My heart still yearns to live further out in the rural areas, but I have found that by living where there is persistent infrastructure and nearer to medical services, becoming acclimated to the weather and lifestyle here was much less difficult. Since I grew up in the snow when I was young, winters here never bother me (it's my favorite season anyway - call me crazy, my coworkers do :P), and I so do enjoy summers that do not have continuous, above 110°F weeks-long oppressing heat-waves. I really enjoy that I can drive 5 to 10 minutes in any direction and be surrounded by forests and mountains (my favorite place to be). Having found your channel; now that I am living here, when I finally am ready to make a purchase of land, I shall keep you in mind. Thank you. Remember everyone, only YOU can keep Idaho from becoming Commiefornia, so leave that garbage and way of life down there. If you can't do that, then stay out of North ID!

Do Not Move to IDAHO. People here - Love America, Love their Family, Love People, Love Gun’s, Do Not Like Liberals and We Do Not Want People to move here and then want to change this place. We Love this place and do not want your city moved here.

the devils parakeet 🤣🤣🤣🤣

Its the same amount of work to sell a 500k home than it is a 10 million dollar home. Why 6%? Should be flat fee.

I really love the panhandle of Idaho. But have never been there in the winter months.

I’m confused at your opinion on school and education. Might want to dig deeper on that one when it comes to Sandpoint. Talk to some teachers. School advisors. School board trustees. Alumni who went on to college. Alumni who went on to trades. Etc. Ours are stellar.

As a real estate investor who only buys and never sells. I do NOT like these changes. It hurts the buyers, particularly first time buyers. Whom are already strapped financially due to higher interest rates and high home prices. All this does is net more for the sellers. Who already have unprecedented amounts of equity in their homes. Muddies and complicates things for the buyers and makes more work for the agents. Sure there are bad Realtors. But most of the agents that do the majority of the business. Are very hard working people. They give up their lives for their profession. Often working 7 days a week. Someone is always calling them. Even at 9-10pm at night. A lot of people don’t realize that. When you are a Realtor you are never “off work.”
