It'll be interesting to see how this plays out. over night charging can be done with 240 ( like a cloths dryer) that runs on 30 amp or so.. 

There's really just not a heavy demand for DIY home buying, which is essentially what all of this comes down to - cutting the fees and services offered to buyers and sellers in the hope of capturing market share from traditional agencies.

We do not have serious floods, tornados, heavy snow and rain, frequent major hailstorms, big earthquakes, or extreme weather conditions.

However, there is a nice marketing aspect to "only pay for what you use" because if there are heavy utility users in a building, it essentially gets subsidized by all residents over time.I'm lining up some meters for testing and will report back on any findings.

Short-term rentals in tourist-heavy areas can also outperform traditional rentals.

If you're able to get tenants paying over market rents, you can also gain a lot of interest because of the heavy cash-flow. 

So many people think they can jump into this all alone, but they end up paying a heavy price most of the time. 

Tertiary markets can be cash flow heavy but tenant/asset risk exists.

Multiple, billion dollar companies are investing heavy in our area, such as Intel, Google, and Amazon.

Scaling is not an overnight scenario unless of course you have a lot of liquid cash to go through.
