@metalover2 I reached out to Dustin probably a couple years ago on messenger saying the exact same thing and to my surprise he responded. Awesome, down to earth dude. I started watching MAV and Dustin about the same time during the pandemic and MAV went from like 41k to over 2.6 million subscribers while Dustin went from about 70k to 270k. I'm not sure if it's because Dustin is in Canada, maybe the algorithm doesn't share/recommend his videos as much but it's been awesome to watch his channel grow so much regardless. The Story Till Now is another Canadian KZbin channel I enjoy and their cinematography, done game, and narration is strong but still I think they're only around 300k. Hopefully they get 10x as big someday because they deserve it.

I regret not doing that sooner. Now at 72 I live in a small town I can't connect with, so I'm going to be looking for a deal I can move into for my forever home. I bought my current home with the idea I would work 2 more years and fix it up with cash before retiring here. I retired early and don't like my neighbors. I don't look forward to another move at my age, but want a place with a more amenable community nearby.

If the ceiling is that low upstairs I'd cut in a shed dormer. It would be pretty inexpensive with minimal/no waste of existing framing and minimal materials for the pony wall. If you don't do this you will spend the rest of your time there bumping your head on the ceiling and wishing you had. $10k cad is a steal for anyone willing to put in the work! Great find!

You need to spray a sealer on every thing inside. I use Weldbond white glue mixed 50/50 with water. It will trap the pee smell and everything else into the wood. Just use a garden sprayer or a stucco brush to apply. I did 2 coats on my rental home plywood floor. It had dog pee on every carpet covered area. Up came the carpet, and then i sealed the plywood.. I also sealed the plywood under the old on suite toilet, to water proof the plywood and to stop rot. I also use a product called "Mold Control" works great for killing mold spores.

One of my biggest regrets was not doing just that when I was 30. Hint: Cover your burn pile with tarp and by next spring it will be dry and burn fully. Get tarp material from your local building supply place from what they cover the lumber with that tarp they just toss it anyway. The small tears in the tarp do not matter just to cover your burn pile.

Another awesome project. Once you have made your new place more liveable and have the time, you want to consider planting willow/cottonwood cuttings in select areas along the river bank below your place. Although there appears to be some bedrock showing along the riverbank, there is evidence of erosion. I would suggest you approach the Ministry of the Environment for ideas and authorization. As your neighbors' properties are experiencing similar erosion issues, they may want to get involved. I know that riverbank erosion is a natural and never-ending phenomenon, but I think it's worth a try. I look forward to watching your vlogs from my home in Prince George, BC. Take care and all the very best to you.

A home base is important. Even a tiny home. A feel a next step is property with a garage a tiny home and small footprint. Minimal expense. Then the world is your oyster. Good luck👍👍

Congratulations! I grew up in Bella Coola (now living in SK). You definitely got me thinking of my options for owning a piece of home. I’m SK, I bought a 1916 house for 9,000. People thought I was crazy but now 10 years later and a lot of sweat equity, I have my dream home/homestead. I look forward to all the videos in this series (always enjoy your content). And I absolutely loved the background story. Very cool

We lived off grid for 6 years outside of Yellowknife! It is a wonderful life and way more possible then most folks realize. Lithium batteries are dirt cheap now as are solar panels.

Growing up in BC there's lots to choose from but at the top of my list it's the Fraser and especially where it runs through the Cariboo-Chilcotin.Well done Dustin you deserve it --renovating one's own place is the bomb and your creativity and problem solving abilities will be fun to watch as this project rolls along.

Congratulations Dustin on Lot 32! The hard work it takes making it your own is very rewarding, I'm currently working on property #2 that adjoins my Lake property here in West Virginia I bought at a low price because of the condition of the structures and the overwhelming amount of trash left behind so I know what it takes my friend but it's all worth it! Looking forward to your build series watching from the beautiful state of West Virginia in the USA! Carry on!
