Eight honest questions. A real score. A clear picture of your path forward.
Most homestead plans live in notebooks, browser tabs, and good intentions. This scorer cuts through the noise — where are your real strengths, where are the gaps, and what should you tackle first.

Question 01 of 08
What was your biggest challenge in your first 90 days — and how would it have changed where you're at now if it had been resolved sooner?
If you haven't started yet, what do you anticipate being the hardest part?
No clear starting point — didn't know what to tackle first and wasted months going in circles
Finding the right people — skills, labor, or knowledge I didn't have and couldn't easily access
Money ran out faster than expected — underestimated costs and had to slow down or stop
Systems didn't connect — solved one problem and created three more I hadn't planned for
Haven't started yet — still in planning mode and not sure when to pull the trigger
Question 02 of 08
What are a few ways you could benefit from a larger community supporting your dream?
Select all that apply. Be honest — this shapes your recommendations.
Labor — I need more hands for projects I can't do alone
Skills — I want to learn from people who've already figured things out
Trade — I produce things others need and need things I don't produce
Accountability — I want people who understand the journey and keep me moving
I prefer to operate independently — community isn't a priority right now
Question 03 of 08
Where do you want to see your operation in 1 year and 5 years?
Pick the option that best describes your 5-year vision.
Small scale — a productive garden, a few animals, supplementing the grocery bill
Substantial self-sufficiency — producing most of our own food, minimal outside inputs
Full homestead — off-grid capable, diversified systems, low dependence on outside economy
Revenue generating — homestead produces income through products, services, or land use
Still defining it — I know I want something different but the vision is still forming
Question 04 of 08
What's your realistic timeline?
Not the dream timeline. The real one, given your current situation.
Already on land and actively building — this is happening now
Within 6 months — I have land or am very close to acquiring it
1–2 years — land is the plan and I'm actively working toward it
3–5 years — longer runway but building the plan and the finances now
5+ years — early stages, more dream than plan right now
Question 05 of 08
How prepared were you — or do you feel — for the reality of initial setup?
Rate yourself 1–10. Then tell us what one extra point on that scale would have saved you.
Not at all readyFully prepared
Question 06 of 08
What's your realistic starting budget for year one?
Not your dream number. Your actual number given where you stand today.
Under $5,000 — bootstrapping hard, every dollar has to count
$5,000 – $15,000 — modest but workable with the right priorities
$15,000 – $50,000 — enough to build real infrastructure in year one
$50,000+ — significant capital available to move fast
Still figuring that out — haven't locked in a number yet
Question 07 of 08
Which of these do you have real hands-on experience in?
Not YouTube knowledge. Actually done-it experience. Select all that apply.
Building and construction
Animal husbandry
Water systems and well work
Electrical and solar
Mechanical and equipment operation
Gardening and soil work
Food preservation and processing
Welding and fabrication
None yet — and that's okay, everyone starts somewhere
