Sounds like she’s in that “tell people you’re just the manager,  not the owner” camp.  

Over several years I acquired so much scrap wood I could have built a house, problems is scrap wood isn't great for much besides camp fires.

Owner used storage area as a lake getaway/cabin/base camp. 

Since I've been away on my camping trip, this property is under contract.https://www.zillow.com/homedetails/201-03-Johnston-Ave-Plainfield-NJ-07062/2080295898_zpid/@Jaysen Medhurst So ARV, ($600k) but kind of hard to gauge because there isn't much to compare it with.  

Assisting an active duty service member to HouseHack using a VA Loan, I realised our offer became substantially stronger overnight. 

Bonus if it can be turned into an educational how-to guide.The resident can either pay out of pocket for any work needing to be done, or they can let the GNA cover it in exchange for direct principal payments off the original market price purchase.Make a simple guide to what needs to be done on a regular basis, and establish a plan for what the resident can handle, vs what the GNA provides.Create synergy with kids and grandkids to accomplish common/ regular tasks.Opportunity for daycare/ day camp, or even homeschool type services.Opportunity for future continued business partners to take over living on the residence.Preferred scenario, resident pays for material and professional labor, and the GNA provides cheaper labor for easy tasks etc.Residents may pay part of the labor cost, but ideally if the GNA has cash to pay internal employees, then those costs get applied as principal payments.Explore options that let GNA employees trade time for ownership of that specific property, instead of traditional pay, or use it as an overtime bonus.Find ways to incorporate local artists and craftsmen, and make unique projects that incorporate the story of the house as told by the resident.

Focus on doing that every day and 10 years from now you'll be called an overnight sensation. ;)

Over night the whole industry got turned off.

The 54-year-old information-technology contractor said she had about $10,000 in bookings evaporate overnight in March.

This was back in 2016 when I was still working as a biologist and managing this huge time-sensitive project mapping endangered plant species on Marine Corps Base Camp Pendelton near San Diego.
