Background:
In the early to mid-1990s, Jim Rawles and his family were living on 40 acres near Orofino, Idaho.  It was a viable, defendable retreat with a southern exposure. It had both a spring and a good well that was pumped with a photovoltaic power system.  But the property lacked privacy, since the house was in plain view of a county road.  This lack of privacy kept Jim on the lookout for a better property.

In 1996, Jim heard about a ranch property that was for sale near Stites, in nearby Idaho County, Idaho. The property was 160 acres and included an additional adjoining 120 acre BLM grazing permit (renewable). The property was a side canyon, off the South Fork of the Clearwater River. The first time that Jim and the Memsahib walked the property, they fell in love with it.

I'm a survivalist Realtor in Western Maine. I will work with buyers on the many retreat-type properties in the foothills of the northern Appalachians in the region of Rangeley, Maine.

There are many, many properties that I have access to which are further away from me - at least 3/4 of the state has retreat-type properties - so can travel further, or refer buyers to another broker. Maine is loaded with reasonably priced (and going lower!) large lots with, or without buildings. Lots of grown up old farmland from 5 - 500 acres - one remarkable 20,000+ acre parcel nearby that I'm very familiar with! Only about 1.3 million folks in this whole isolated state, mostly large forested tracts owned by corporations far away, and we have an excellent long seacoast.

Viola, along with her husband, think that Northwest Montana is the BEST place to live and raise their five children!
