What Alaskan regions are popular to purchase land?

While cities such as Juneau, Anchorage, and Fairbanks are among the most populated regions, homesteaders tend to seek out land in places just outside of the city, like Eagle River and the Valley. You can purchase land in the northern region of the state where temperatures are more extreme, but land comes in large parcels and is more remote.

What are the weather and seasons like?

Alaska is known for being very cold most of the year. If you choose a plot in the southern region of the state, you can expect mild summers that last around one third of the year, and cold winters that bring multiple feet of snow. Summer months get shorter the higher you move up in the state. If you're planning on purchasing off-grid cabins in Alaska, make sure to thoroughly inspect the property to make sure it's insulated and weather-tight.

What are things to consider before purchasing land in Alaska?

Like many coastal regions, land in Alaska can have sandy soil which makes for unstable foundations. Have a surveyor check your property before purchasing to ensure the land is good for your construction plans. Also make sure the property you buy is zoned for the use you intend, such as residential zoning in order to live on a lot and build housing.
