Just curious what you like and don't like. I'm looking at a 2012 with a bagging system.

which model exactly? I have a 2011 61" with the 27HP Kohler. I also have the 3-bag bagger for it. The mower has enough power to turn the bagger, even when wet. The tube on the bagger was too long, so I had to cut it down (it sagged and wet grass would get stuck). I don't care of the mounting of the blower unit, it's heavy as **** and not as easy to un-tension the belt as another brand, like an Exmark.
The mower itself I've had no problems with. The only thing I wish the mower had was a hydro cooler. If you are doing lots of hills, the hydro fluid gets real hot and performance suffers a little. I get good fuel usage also, 10 gallons would be nice instead of the 8 though.
52" with kawi 24 hp I believe. I do have a lot of hills though.

The Scag Tiger Cat is a great mower. I've got 2 with 52" and Kohler engines. The Velocity decks leave a beautiful cut. I don't bag, but they do offer 2 different types of bagging systems. I use the Hurricane mulching kits on mine.
I've owned a lot of Scags and they have never let me down.

I would keep using what you have until you max it out, or at least need to get a more effecient machine so you can do more work. I made a mistake of buying my first zero turn a little to early. I only put like 80 hrs. on it my first season. That definitely doesn't justify spending $$$ for a mower.

yea i would get out there and bust my but i would start walking door to door and hand them a card say i just wanted to drop this off if you every need my services and get out of there space they will be following you out the driveway wanting a estimate . you should get 4 or 5 out of every 100 doors you go to . if you want more yards get you a target area and get it . give all your customer to give you referrals .offer them one free cut per customer they get you .. you can get as big as you want in this business the sky is the limit . pm me i give you some letters that are done made up . just take them and hand them out hang one in every store you go in
