Episode-204- Bug Out Location – Questions, Considerations and Options

Today’s show covers the concept of setting up a bug out location, also referred to as a BOL or a fall back location.  When you are not bugging out (like most of the time) they also serve as great real estate investments, tax deductions and vacation spots.

However there are some real gotchas to watch out for.  If you go the low cost route you need to make sure to get the costs of improvements via quotes and asking the right questions before you buy.  If you are crossing state lines there are more questions and considerations.

Tune in today to hear about options, gotchas and what I have learned by managing and improving my own little 5 acres in the Ouachita Mountains.
