I suggest you check pay day loans, pawn shops, auto loans as to their structure in your state.

Call around for a local, independent electrician (not independent as in union-free, but one that runs his or her own shop).

Generally speaking, most of the buyers shopping in December and January are serious about buying, and if you have a competitive product, you'll get sales.Looking back through my data, it appears the typical DOM for properties we put on the market in November, December and January is 26 days, compared to 17 days as an all-around average.

In my RE farms, the local shops and installers are hungry and truly competitive.

I worked for a company all of those years till about 2015, helping a few in-house investors purchase, sell and manage commercial real estate such as shopping centers and strip malls.  

Luckily I'm near plenty of restaurants and coffee shops to escape now and then.

They e-mail you a cabinet call out that you can take to local shops to compare prices.
