Find out how to find and finance a property with no permit requirements and very low taxes in Ontario, Canada. http://myselfreliance.com/no-permit-required-where-to-build-your-tiny-home/ I found my solution in the form of an unorganized township in Ontario, Canada. Here, I am unencumbered by government oversight. With no building permit requirement and very low annual property taxes, I am free to build what I want, where I want and when I want. Without oversight, I am free to build another log cabin. This one is 10 feet by 20 feet - 200 square feet plus a 70 square foot covered porch and a back deck overlooking the stream, which will eventually be screened in.
