”Allemansrätt” gives you the right to put up a tent almost anywhere… almost, but not everywhere and not for as long as you want, and you need to behave. Not in someones garden for example. And just for 1 night per place. And behave, dont litter and dont start a forestfire ;-)

I think you should consider adding “asbestos free” to your purchase checklist. Some of those places had corrugated asbestos roofing. Always check before renovating.

This is such an important point! Most of the houses I looked at had a simple wooden roof :D Also: asbestos would only be problematic in houses after 1950. And most houses are wayyyyyyy older.

Just to clarify, since you called a "trekammarbrunn" a "well" (which is a source for fresh water),."Trekammarbrunn" is a sewage treatment system.

I know that but maybe I was not clear enough

First time I’ve heard about radon, thanks I’ll keep in mind when looking

Most people will also not care but it will affect you after like a year of exposure.

You will eventually have to pay for waste disposal services. It is by law, so no way around it - even in the middle of "nowhere" you will have to pay for it. The costs are not astronomical, but you should put aside about 2-300 Euro per year for this. Some get it cheaper, some more expensive. It is partly dependent on what area you happen to end up in.

300 sounds like a lot of money to me for each household :o

@@friedi.off-grid thank you and trust me I will!! I'm looking to buy more north though ;-) I spend some time near Luleå, and Piteå, this summer and fell in love with the area.

Thanks for all this good advice. It will definitely help because I can easily follow you in your zeal if you do some stupid things that could have been avoided, like driving so far and the house is next to a busy road or have a ton of neighbors ha ha, Keep up the good work and you are incredible good at explaining and filming, Hug😊

That is a heartwarming compliment. Thanks for the kind words! Surely keeps the motivation going

These are very good tips (especially the last one - don't stress - have fun!)) which apply to buying real estate in any country, not just in Sweden, but what I've seen from the internet so far - Sweden is a very beautiful place and definitely worth considering as a future home. What a shame - I've only been to Sweden once - in Ulricehamn - and it was ages ago. So you definitely sparked my interest, have to admit :))) ✌ What I'd like to add .. if you've found a nice property that seems ok, talk also to locals, check the background a little .. so that there are no noisy neighbors nearby .. such people can be a real pain in the a** in long term, believe me.

Really informative and helpful, thanks so much for sharing your experience! My husband and I are visiting Sweden in a few weeks for the same purpose 😊 Ps. Can you please share a link to the second search website you mentioned? We already use hemnet but aren't familiar with the other.

This is such a lovely video! suuuper helpful! I didnt quite understand the point with the Radon, when to check for that? Also do you have any particular areas south of Stockholm line that you'd recommend particularly for the nature? as this is also the main reason i wanna move to sweden. nooo audible cars please ;-)

@Timley_to 8 ай бұрын

Im also happy to be a bit north of the latitude Karlstad - Stockholm line... but also my budget is a bit higher

Hi Friedi, thank you for sharing your experience with us 🙏🌳💕✨️ I am looking for an option to live for some weeks in the middle of nature in Sweden. My hearts longing is to move there with my dogs and dive deep in Mother nature. So my question to you: Are you still living in your cabin or is there the opportunity to rent it for 2-3 weeks. In my case just for me. Without my dogs in this first experience. Looking forward to reading from you. Happy weekend 🏡🌳🦋✨️☀️🌷🧘🏼‍♀️💚 Verena

Hi Verena, thanks for your mindful words :) Really appreciate the message. I did not end up buying that particular property. So, unfortunately thats a no. But its exactly what I intented the place to be: hideout from the buzzing world
