You could try REITs.People like you and I are kind of up the creek without a paddle if we want to be successful.

If you don't need the PATH and restaurants within walking distance, you can deal with a ferry to lower Manhattan (in community) or a 10min shuttle to the PATH, you plan on starting a family, you really want to live on the water and actually maybe get on the water for boating/kayaking/paddle boarding, then I would recommend Port Liberte.

I find walking the trail in the evening or taking the kayak out for a leisurely,  or intense paddle down the river,  and asking " what is the one thing I can do that will make everything easier or unnecessary" and exploring answers, gets me much better solutions to my challenges than doing the night sweat thing, developing ulcers, spitting blood, tried them for years but cant say it was productive.The answer to the question of what I need ....If you could develop a software program, where after I do a scope of work, I feed it in the program, it  then contacts the subcontractors and lines them up for the projects...and gets their quotes back, and compares them to my budgetSince I  have 7-10 projects in various stages at any time, about seven in active stage of rehab, it also creates time lines with schedules so one sub isnt overlapping schedule on two or more projects when I do timelines...I typically walk through each project at least every friday or saturday to check status, quality issues and replan... for me this is a time consuming project as I have properties in three counties and driving time is significant, on one of my walks I had what I thought a brilliant  idea...... if you could develop software connected to a small drone, I could sit at my desk send my rehab drone from house to house, walk/fly/drone through each room and and transmit real time video footage to my big screen in the office.

I am a paddle holder in the Riverside County, CA Tax Deed Auction currently being held online.

I also am a trail runner, mountain biker, I love stand up paddle boarding with my dog, we have a small farm and raise our own meats and I have 2 grandsons that keep me busy! 

Teach them to fish, hunt, shoot a bow and arrow, paddle a canoe, conservation, etc.Take a few long leisurely boundary waters canoe trips, too :)Perhaps you can come here to MN and teach me a few things about REI!

We are all in the same boat and paddling up the same river.

Golf cart, paddle boards, skim boards, items for water activities...

Floating/paddling without a PFD (or an unlatched PDF) is only the beginning.   

We provide kayaks, canoe, paddle boat and memories.This makes for a memorable stay and the desire to come back.
