It takes time and dedication to make it.

We repurposed the storage tank (it was very well insulated) as storage for a solar-thermal array and put in-line water heaters in each unit to give the solar heated water a boost when needed,The solution was a little pricy going in, but pay-back was forecasted as 4-years.Is there a storage closet in each unit which could serve as home for a dedicated water heater (inline or storage) for the unit?  

@Lew PayneCertainly point of use would be easier when there is already 220v circuits in-place, but even where 220/240v is the standard (such as in Europe) a dedicated circuit would be run for an electric point-of-use heater.  

I'm wondering if I had more time to dedicate to real estate, if I could double my business and "accelerate" my success?

Nicholas-Yes, notable work, nice to see a dedicated staffing to define and place a strategic plan to eliminate blight in neighborhoods, while in parallel attempting to enhance them through this service.  

We tested out live chat with a dedicated operator (internal, not outsourced operator) and 99% of people ignored the proactive prompt ("Hi, thanks for visiting, let me know if you have any questions") We went for 7 days and the only visitor who engaged with the chat was not the target market (maybe an investor, I can't remember).

I believe one could easily live a lifestyle like yours if they have the dedication and drive to want to make life affordable and fun at the same time.

Saying that there is some need as to RE tax expertise is required is a little over doing it my opinion as the tax issues for real estate investing at the level this site is dedicated to is rather low, there really isn't a specialty in RE taxes as there isn't enough to fuel (enough investors) in most areas to allow an accountant to just specialize in the area.

Some people simply cannot focus when they are in their living space, they require an office dedicated to working.

So since I purchased it for $85,000 (which was about $8,000 under what it was worth at the time) it is worth $25,000 more than I purchased it for.As for the $820/month I am clearing I just deposit into a dedicated bank account each month and don't touch it.
