Granted, this is as much business as real estate, which is why at my advanced age and reduced energy level I’m not interested in doing it myself, but they showed me their financial statements for the operation and I was impressed.   

Clean and Green means I have reduced taxes in holding the property, back taxes would be due if it were to be developed (maybe $20K).
