I know it can feel a bit daunting at first, but you’re asking the right questions, and that’s half the battle won.

Fortunately for our 100+ house community, the fire department was already on site battling the brush fire and about a dozen fire fighters frantically extinguished the 4 or 5 roofs burning.This is insignificant compared to what has happened in LA, Palisades, Malibu and Altadena however having lived through Hurricane Andrew and many other major storms even this experience was drastically more terrifying and chaotic. 

Pick your battles. 

@Rene Hosman Generally, Reasons for Land Swaps are to: - Resolving zoning conflicts - Acquiring strategically important properties - Consolidating land holdings - Avoiding costly legal battles - Achieving public policy goalsWhen I was a Planning Commissioner projects would discuss land swaps for larger development projects to make sure the community impact was greater (typically gaining conservation land for us) than just allowing a rezone to be approved without public benefit.

I love how Airbnb just pay me based on the evidence without going through 6 months legal battle or 3 years of collection hunting. 

This project was the definition of learning by doing, and now I’ve got the battle scars to prove it.

It’s mentally tasking, which is my biggest battle now.

It is going to be an uphill battle trying to prove material participation with a property manager.

Don't know about anyone else, but I feel like my personal daily battle is between doing what is urgent and fuels my raging undiagnosed ADHD, or what is actually important.I've done a ton of work on this over the past almost 4 years, and still am nowhere that I think I need to be, but I'm at least getting to a level of awareness I don't think I ever had before and that is a win in my book.  

Managing and owning property is a constant process of losing the battle to win the war.
