Secure dense communities. Operate fiber. Convert residents.
Reinvest the cash.
The model in one sentence: secure dense residential communities, deploy or operate fiber, convert residents into recurring internet, TV, and seasonal revenue, then reinvest cashflow into capacity and additional markets. The economics below are illustrative starting points — every assumption is editable in the calculator and every number must be validated against actual costs, take rate, churn, and legal/accounting review.
1 Gig Fiber Internet
$79 / month base in both Arizona and Florida. Symmetrical 1 Gig. No data caps. No throttling. Where applicable, premium / Ultra Optic Blast tiers introduce an upgrade path.
BroadStreamTV add-on
$59–$79 / month TV add-on attached to fiber subscriptions. Increases household ARPU and retention without taking on linear-cable capex.
Vacation Mode
$29 / month for snowbirds and seasonal residents. Keeps WiFi active and TV access alive while away. Critical for Tropical Haven and future winter-resident markets.
Activation / install fees
Where structurally appropriate — for example Florida's 2026 Price Lock $199 one-time activation/install fee. Annual or prepay options available where approved.
Property-owner partnerships
Manufactured-home parks, apartments, HOAs, and new developments enter through agreements with property owners and community managers.
Solar / utility lead engine
Honest "Solar Problems Solved" content monetizes search traffic, builds homeowner trust, and creates a cross-sell path back to fiber and energy services.
Where the dollars actually go
- Backhaul / circuits — 10G transit and middle-mile commitments.
- Headend electronics — XGS-PON OLTs, switching, redundancy.
- Drops / ONT / router — endpoint hardware per home.
- Install labor — internal crews and contracted partners.
- Customer support — local-feel service that protects retention.
- Payment processing — gateway, decline recovery, reconciliation.
- Sales rep commissions — per-activation, residual style, and overrides.
- Marketing — community events, referral spiffs, local creative.
- Truck rolls — service visits, repair, repeat installs.
- TV wholesale / login cost — per-subscriber TV add-on COGS.
- Warranty / replacement reserve — ONT, router, and field gear.
Recurring revenue waterfall
