I know the inside of the building and the small backyard. The main problems though are that they often are coming and going and have very active neighbours. right now iv been limiting it to driving past and hanging in a nearby alley with a good view, but i need way more time to time there routines. the suburbs mean that this is much harder but i really want to pull this off.

This is a tough nut to crack... I live in a neighborhood where people (not me...never shit in your own backyard) steal stuff all the time, so we always have somebody here... ALL the time to prevent that. In 7 years at this house, we're the only ones on the block to NOT be B&E'd...YET... I know there's somebody out there dumb enough to do it... anyways, as I see it you have 3 options:
1)Keep waiting and watching...this is going to require almost constant surveillance and you'll have to be alert and ready to go at the very 1st opportunity.
2)Knock on the door and politely ask to speak privately to the thief saying it's about a topic that could be "rewarding." In your private convo, blackmail the little bastard into giving it back...the reward being that no harm comes to him from either you or local law enforcement.
3)Give up and chalk it up as a lesson learned, then get yourself a bigger and/or better one of whatever it was he stole from you
Sorry if none of these work out... just options to think about.
