Contractors will pushNew constructions and focus on reconstruction of the ruins.

I quit my job to focus 100% on business instead of 50% on business as well.

The SoCal guy said, "you're never going to lose if you find a deal and keep it for the long term, don't focus so much on short term fluctuations."

I'd say your first focus, as should be everyone's when they are starting, is investing your initial capital into education.

I know PSE&G will give monthly averages for power bills.

Sounds like you are in a great position.My vote would be that you don't focus as much on paying down the notes and focus more on adding more properties.

I love the team that I have in place, which is a major factor keeping my focus in the same geographical area.Going forward, I'd like to explore multifamily rentals and maybe expand to a second market such as North Florida or Central Arizona.I'd also like to get more involved in the real estate investing community in general and attend some meetings at a local REIA.I'd love to share any of my experiences if it helps someone.I look forward to being more involved as a member of the Bigger Pockets community. 

I am thinking that mail is not going to be my avenue of top ROI, so where should I be focusing?

IE, a ditch, a road, a power company right of way, etc.  

So from this genuine interest and focus, things started to happen.
