Explore our dedicated off grid platform, where you can learn about sustainable living and connect with like-minded buyers and sellers of alternative homes.
Finding an off-grid home isn’t always straightforward. Your usual property websites aren’t designed for cabins with solar power, smallholdings with compost toilets, or boats for full-time living. Meanwhile, vehicle marketplaces generally don’t cater for people looking for a fully equipped off-grid camper or expedition truck.
Homes Off Grid was created to make the search easier. Built by someone who lives off-grid full-time, it’s a platform dedicated to alternative homes and self-sufficient living. Whether you’re looking for a rural property, a liveaboard boat, an overland vehicle or a tiny home, you’ll find everything in one place.
Every listing on our marketplace is manually reviewed to make sure it fits the platform. You can search across four main categories:
Selling an off-grid home often means struggling to fit within the sales categories, and explaining the same things over and over again. Solar systems, water tanks and composting toilets tend to leave buyers on general marketplaces confused and concerned.
Homes Off Grid is different. The people browsing the site already understand the lifestyle and are specifically looking for alternative homes to suit their off-grid life choices.
This site keeps things simple with two straightforward listing options, and you’ll never be asked for a commission on your sale.
Living off-grid regularly gives you new challenges disguised as learning opportunities. This is why the Homes Off Grid platform is more than just a listings site, it’s a practical resource. Our Reading Room is full of straightforward guides and articles covering the realities of life with an off-grid home. From energy and water systems to growing food and maintaining a boat or camper, there’s something for everyone.
Another big challenge when building or maintaining an off-grid home is finding people who understand the unique systems involved.
Whether you’re trying to install a solar power system, repair a boat engine, build a log cabin or modify an overland vehicle, general tradespeople don’t always have the specialist knowledge needed for alternative homes and lifestyles.
That’s why Homes Off Grid also includes a dedicated Business Directory, bringing together companies and independent specialists who work within the off-grid sector. The aim is simple: to make it easier for people to connect with businesses that already understand the off-grid lifestyle and the challenges that come with it.
If you run a business that serves the off-grid community, you can also create a listing and connect directly with people looking for your services.
Hi, I’m Charlotte the creator of Homes Off Grid. After years of rural backpacking, living in vehicles, and meeting people who chose a different path, I realised how difficult it was to buy and sell alternative homes. I was forever checking different websites but struggled to find what I was looking for.
I built this platform to fix that problem. It is designed to be a useful, focused space for the off-grid community to connect and learn without the usual corporate restrictions.
