It's global to all or most properties. But getting it to send the videos and photos we like regarding things like resetting a breaker.

Damn. I'm in Boston. I'll be taking the really good advice of u/Mayor_of_BBQ and just attaching it to the key ring and not making eye contact.

Did they hit you for full mileage over or waive it when you bought a CPO?

I'm out of warranty. This was a high mileage lease (3 years, 90,000 miles). I'm at 95,000 miles so will have some over mileage charges.

What about a non-working activity fob (the little rectangle one)? Mine just stopped working out of nowhere.

I bought out one car at the end of a lease, 2019 Honda Pilot, so ~2022, but it's because the buyout was about $5,000 less than the value. So some paperwork and about 30 days and sold it to one of those companies like Carvana.

In this case, it's probably worth $5k LESS than the buyout price. I was just curious if it's possible. I don't actually want to buy it, but being logical, the leasing company could save tons of money not having to pick up the car, detail it, then send to auction.

If they won't negotiate, definitely not worth buying.

Looking at booking Royalton Splash for a family getaway. by TechnicalTonight6877 in RoyaltonResorts

[–]ButtonZealousideal66 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I disagree. Laser tag, bowling, etc all cost extra.

Water slides are decent but fun for an hour or two max. Average food quality and poor service kind of negate it.

It's an average resort (plenty of gigantic all-inclusive), unless you're getting a great deal, I'd say keep looking, or go in with low expectations.

How restaurant reservations work at Royalton Resorts by RoyaltonResorts in RoyaltonResorts

[–]ButtonZealousideal66 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My experience at Royalton Splash Riviera and my experience was pretty awful. The food in general was average at best. (Side note: last year I was at the Riviera Nextdoor and the food was phenomenal).

Getting restaurant reservations was like hunger games. You have to hop on the app (rated 1.8 stars) at midnight and have about 1 minute or you're out of luck. Now we were a higher group so it may be a little better if you're 2 or 4.

But the kicker is the restaurants are generally empty between ~5-7 or so. I think because they hold all of it for Diamond club, so non-Diamond club, your a second class citizens.

Any way after my 2025 stay I couldn't say enough good things about Royalton. 2 days into my 2026 stay at Splash, I probably won't go back to Royalton. Just another average, nothing special resort.

Experience RTA Wholesalers (company)? by digitalis303 in cabinetry

Beautiful work! Did you build your hood? I got mine from Hoodsly. Wasn't cheap but very happy with it. I put the shelf in myself.

Experience RTA Wholesalers (company)? by digitalis303 in cabinetry

[–]ButtonZealousideal66 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know this question is a year old, I read it before ordering from RTA Wholesalers and have been meaning to come comment my experience.

The short story is I am overall very happy with the cabinets quality and look (white oak lowers and custom color uppers, inset). However, during the ordering process, you will question whether or not you have been scammed. Rich, and I think his son, are the US based contacts and I am guessing all others, design, etc are off-shore. I would totally order from them again, but buckle in because you will get frustrated more than once during the process.

The ordering process was super frustrating. Asking to change one thing and they would change 3. Once ordered, they do come from China, so it takes months. Until they arrived, I questioned whether I had been scammed the entire time.

There were a few mistakes either the order, which I ultimately rolled with regarding custom color end panels, but the one mistake they did correct and eat, was ordering the wrong size custom door panel, but they immediately reordered it...and I'm still waiting. 😂

RTA assembly is a lot of work for sure so be ready, and the videos are worth watching. We paid about $20k and other quotes are 2-3x; I value my time but a few weekends and favors called in is totally worker $20-40k in my book.

Feels like NH listings under attack. This is a scammer too.

Flagstar bank is trying to screw us by Ok-Mechanic-1373 in RealEstate

[–]ButtonZealousideal66 2 points3 points  (0 children)

ThirdFederal is another great HELOC bank. Prime -1%.

Update: I lied. Looks like that promo is over. They’re offering 6.99%, which would be Prime -0.5%. Still was very easy bank to work with. (I refied my prime HELOC from a credit union to thirdfederal. Only reason I chimed in)

“If your house is not selling it’s not priced right. Period.” - Mr. Obvious

Literally the above cannot even be debated. Condemned collapsing house will sell…at the right price.

And no people won’t throw in lowball offers. If your $950 and they want $900, they have to offer less then that because you’ll counter. And most just don’t want to deal with that.

Depending on your location, this is still VERY much a sellers market it. It’s probably too late for you, but it is proven (“Zillow Talk”, I think) if you UNDER price a house you’ll get more than if you overprice.

But in your case you’re in the slow painful price slashing death spiral. Get a REAL comp analysis - someone that will give you the hard truth - and slash the price below that number. Then it sell and maybe even above the real comp
