Off grid homes are easy now with LFP batteries, it would just be the
hassle of wiring it, specially as they probably don't use sheet rock
interior walls. So you are probably doing conduit all around the
outside walls. But they probably all have basements that you could
also wire through.

The Amish are making a mass exodus from NY. You can drive through
Amish communities and see "for sale" signs one after the other. The
Amish are generally known for good workmanship, to the point where
some people go out of their way to get Amish building contractors.
They also have multigenerational households, so you get these large
properties with huge well-built houses, barns, and outbuildings. The
problem is they have no utilities at all. They'll have hand pumped
wells and outhouses and wood stoves.

I linked the above example because it was easy to find, but that
particular one has electric out by the road. I saw a similar one for
sale where there was no electric service available and it was listed
for $140k. That's a friggin 'steal except for one thing: What could
you do with a huge house with no electricity? A scout camp? Start a
cult?
