One of my biggest life changing goals would be to start waking up at 5:00 am, but it is very very hard. i had it as a goal last year, but i didnt have my mind set to it. this year it is a priority to make myself wake up at 5;00am because i believe it would change my real estate career.My question to you is: whats the best way for me to consistently wake up at 5?  

@Anthony Dooley Do you feed that cash reserve every month with your budgeted amount or do you replenish  that some other way?

I am also active military...and while I have gone a couple months without a paycheck due to a screw-up by finance, I can't sympathize with someone who is consistently late.  

@Joshua Dorkin & @Brandon Turner have been extremely consistent about limiting self promotion in the forums. 

I appreciate any feed back!

It has a few banks, a feed store, post office, Dollar General, fertilizer plant, elementary/middle/high schools, a couple of convenience stores, beautiful new gun shop, a couple of sit down restaurants and the largest job creator - a small prison just outside of town.

Zillow has plenty of agreements in places with MLSs for direct feeds and are signing more up every day.

I doubt if we have the hardness you recorded but yearly preventative maintenance of any system is imperative to longevity.Given the precarious attic location I would definitely review the obvious advantages of an on-demand system.I have also designed a simple fix for the 'cold water sandwiching' issue that plagues the on-demand systems with feed water temperature fluctuations common in colder climates. 

The fact that we were experiencing consistent (-10) below temps and had about a couple of feet of snow on the roof and around the property, made it very difficult for my contractors to get started.

In a small building, water and sewer are likely to be common, but if the water feed runs separately to each unit from the basement/mechanical room you have the option to sub-meter water in the future.2) Ample parking - unless you live in a large enough urban setting that a significant portion of your clientele do not have vehicles or are accustomed to not having parking.
