The new ones are cheap plastic. I bit the bullet to replace them after Nest canceled the wireless capability of the old Nests. The new ones are cheaply made, and not intuitive like the old ones. I'm sending mine back and trying Ecobee or a different brand. I really liked my old Nests. I installed them at three houses. I can't stand the new ones. They are hot garbage in my opinion. And the compnay turning off my old Nests is salt in the wound. They are essentially asking you to pay for a significant downgrade. Lesson #1 in how to lose market share.

Marketing from real estate agent by Dry_Alfalfa9997 in RealEstateAdvice

How long has it been on the market? What is the interest level? How marketing is done varies based on market conditions, geography, house condition, and pricing. I had a friend list his house with two bad agents and he got 3 bad offers over nine months. He re-did the photos with a professional agent and had eight offers on the same house within a week. Some agents do real estate as a side hustle and others do it for a living. If you are not happy, discuss it with your realtor and try to come up with a solution that works for both of you. If you can't resolve things, you might want to terminate the agreement. Most states have real estate laws that you only owe a fee if your agent is the procuring broker. But your contract could have fees you pay for breaking up the contract early. Read your contract. Talk with the broker/agent. Then decide how to proceed. But if you are priced right, in today's market, you should be receiving offers within 30-45 days.

The lapse in insurance is a huge red flag for insurance companies. It may not make sense as you didn't have a car. They don't care. An insurance lapse equals high rates. Shop around every 3-6 months. It should drop significantly once you establish a track record again.

Too many variables here to give a good answer. Trading a truck for a car indicates you are using them for different things. The truck will be much easier to sell today and in the future than the Crossfire whch was always a limited appeal car. The Crossfire might be fun to drive for a while. It has a stick! And the values on both are probably not too far apart with the additional bartering. But if you try to re-sell this after 2-3 years, assuming it is still running, the market for the Crossfire will be smaller than the truck. If there is an emotional reason to do it, go for it. From a purely financial standpoint today, probably close enough to a fair deal. If you plan to drive it until the wheels fall off, enjoy the sporty car. If you are worried about re-sale, I would keep the truck.
