If your doing AirBNB or guesthouses, you have to make sure your water usage is covered. 

@Jedd Braunwarth do your submeters require wifi or in person visits to determine the usage by a tenant? 

Will the installation of the kiln have any other affect on the garage that will have to be removed or change the long term usage.

This is why I believe condolences are inappropriate once probate gas been opened. 

Renovating the exterior by putting on newer paint also comes in handy since first impressions are very important.I would also manage energy usage by replacing incandescent bulbs with LED lights and perhaps looking into your cooling/heating expenses; it can add up and significantly reduce costs.

Seeing as you are living in the home you should check and see how much you can deduct based on usage percentages.

Any agreements or solution other than cutting usage which doesn't seem to be happening fast enough by all stakeholders, would take years if not decades to get approved, funded, permitted, constructed, etc (i.e. desalination, piping water in from elsewhere, etc), and there's no solution even on the table other than wishful thinking. 

The comment above that you can call on two days, get two different customer service reps, and two different answers is unfortunately all too common.With the IRA LLC or Solo 401(k) offered by a quality advisory firm, you can rely on much more expert consulting about the usage of your plan. 

You can control it remotely via wifi and monitor usage.

But, you know our winters are long and the electricity usage will be super high.
