The boat does run on shore power when docked and has back up batteries for the bilge pumps if the power goes out. 

Granted you may not be able to take nice vacations or things like that, but even just taking a day to hang out with your family, or veg out on the couch can recharge the batteries allowing you to come back to work way stronger.

I have a cloth play tent and camping toys (battery lanterns, felt foods, teeny pots and pans, colorful flashlights) in the kids’ room.

We rent rooms in our house, and one morning woke up smelling gas *throughout* the house. Our tenants somehow had not turned off the gas range all the way after cooking. These tenants also liked candles....OK, so I gue...

The only issue with the solar for the power source for the heat pump is that when the heat pumps are needed the amount of sunlight is reduced, short days of winter and night time, it is essential to have a good battery back up to help with the demand. 

My goal is to recondition the property and rent it out... 

How about an outlet for the RV so the owner can plug in a battery charger, water tank heater, etc?  

Point-and-shoot camera (I take a couple hundred photos per property, which uses a lot of space on my phone and drains my battery quickly). 

Then some PM charge a service fee every time they send someone to service the property or if they go to inspect the property - in other words, you might get nickel-dime'd with all kinds of other fees, that could easily raise the "PM fee" to 12%+ (we once got charged $45 service fee + $9 per battery to change the smoke detectors batteries at make-ready).Regardless, you need to factor in at least 8% PM cost, even if you self manage (after all your time costs too) as there might be a time when you might want to (or be forced to, like sickness or old age, or desire complete passive participation) to be completely hands-off and you'll need a PM.
