I'm 35ish. My wife is 25ish. We live in Alaska and she's an Alaskan native and member of several tribal groups AND is employed in a middle level management job with one of the native corporations. I am a white man.

There is a property that my father leased from someone on the east coast during the 80s/90s/2000s. He built and operated an authentic Alaskan style and successful wilderness guide business until shutdown during the 2008 recession. Since then the owners have tried to sell the property (along with all the logbuildings my father built by hand) but havent found a buyer due to the experience and renovations needed at this point, 15 years later.

My wife and I make about a $120000 a year together, and we want to find a way to buy the property back and keep it in the family while making enough money to pay off the loan. It's a decent amount of land, around 100 acres. Enough land for restructuring for ecotourism, small farming for potatoes or eggs, wedding venues, and so on.

Through which means would you suggest that we pursue loans on a agricultural, tribal or business base agenda that will be most likely to pay our way, possibly based on my wife's genetics and tribal membership? I think the entire operation with a 5 year plan could be done for a million dollars, that being a combination of the price of the land and buildings and the equipment and supplies needed for renovation. Getting a hold of the property first is definitely the more important issue, and finding a kind of bank or loan situation that will approve something that is about 40 miles off of the road system. Though it is technically remote it is an well traversed area with common river usage. Let's say for the sake of easy guesstimation let's say it's 500K for the land and 500K for supplies, equipment and upkeep.

How would I convince or trick the government into helping me with this dream?

Thanks anons! If you help me I'll let you come stay for free one day when it's up and running.

If you go native, they can steal it from you, so maybe pursue a GRANT there, but not a loan or joint business agreement.

Do you and her each have a good fica score? 700 or better? Consistent employment record? You're going to need a business plan. So you need to figure out what exactly it is you plan to do with the place. Then apply for loans.

You should at least have the decency to provide a QRD at the end. I mean, this is common manners

Just save your pennies and buy it in cash.

I am familiar with the Indian giver term but what do you mean specifically?

>>510064768
She does, mine is a little lower. She has a good respectable medical job with a prominent native corporation and is in management, I've been doing gigslop for a couple of years.

We do know what we want to do with it, I'm just being vague for the sake of internet. Let's say green-listed low impact ecotourism with Alaskan cultural exhibits (possibly featuring native artifacts and exhibits regarding the local history), a small egg and seed potato farm for agriculture consideration and Alaskan wilderness wedding venues for the pay pigs. Maybe a small general store with gasoline and basic supplies for locals and summer tourists.

What kind of departments or organizations would I go 24 the best bet of an approval on loans if we check all those boxes?

Sell it, buy land near Tok, and build a hunting cabin.

Yes I'm sorry.

TLDR: White Alaskan anon and his native wife want to find a way to use her minority status to get loans from the government to purchase and renovate their dream business property.

>>510064930
I knew hed fucking say that. That's why I asked you guys instead.

>>510065003
Fuck off we're full.

Someone post the red man usury

>>510065203
Nah I'm good on that. Tok is ok but I'm trying to check green style job-hunting or fishing related boxes. Walking and kayaks instead of mercury boat moters and atvs. Been there, seen it, too expensive now. Plus people are stupider than they were back then.

Non-hunting*

I would highly recommend going through an Islamic financial institution which does not charge interest and assumes shared liability. There are many such institutions in the USA, one off the top of my head is University Islamic Financial.

You do not need to be a Muslim in order to invest with these banks, it is Haram (forbidden) for Muslims to charge interest from anyone. A deposit and proof of income is sufficient. It does not require any sort of convincing or tricking of the government.

This is the most cost effective way I know of borrowing money for land or any other major investment. Even a government loan can charge interest.
