When we bought the Florida place in 2010 we put a $10000 deposit down on another unit.
We had it inspected and one of the items we asked be repaired was a light switch that didn't work.
They thought that light switch would never hinder the sale.
After we put the $10k down, a much nicer unit came up for sale for the same price.
By the time they sent the paperwork to us we had time to withdraw our offer, and our agent canceled the offer on the first home, and got back our deposit because they wouldn't fix the light switch.
They threatened to keep the deposit, but we had an out. Since there was an older lady involved plus her 3 nasty threatening sons....we did give her $500 for her trouble.

Water Heaters. New house has a Noritz tankless unit. I’ve read there is maintenance that needs to be done.
Anyone have one, experiences to share?

Back in October of last year, he passed out in the shower and ended up breaking his neck/vertebrae at the C3/C4 level. He was hospitalized twice in order to perform work to fuse the vertebrae. He wore a neck brace for 4 months and finally had it removed about 6 months ago.
Back in June of this year, he passed out again in his garage and ended up breaking his left wrist. Back in to the hospital to surgically repair the fractures and he spent 3 weeks in the hospital because he developed a bladder infection which took quite a while to correct - was also on heavy narcotics for a time due to the pain. He was released to a rehab facility where he spent 6 weeks. He had lost control of his bladder and eventually lost control of his bowl movements requiring diapers.
Now, he uses a walker to get from one room in his house to another and has had limited improvement in his gross motor muscles - i.e. walking, standing, sitting, etc. His memory is getting pretty bad and, in my opinion, he is deteriorating right before our eyes.
I remember my Dad had memory and verbal limitations when he had "onset" Altzheimers, which I think is what is happening to my friend. Just think - 10 months ago he was an active man who was fun to be around. In the last 10-11 months, he has deteriorated quickly. Those loss of consciousness episodes were probably mini strokes that have accelerated his memory loss and control of bodily functions. This serves as a "heads-up" for me to relish the days and weeks and months we possess all our functions and capacities and mental faculties. You never know when you'll be hit with a deteriorating mental and physical capacity - troubling, to be sure!

As far as maintenance goes, you should have a de-scaler run through the system to have any gunk that’s built up flushed out.

This may be a dumb question (alright - don't need the remarks) but is there extra maintenance for say a Hybrid car? I mean you save on your gas bill, but does the car need extra things done to it for maintenance and do certain things breakdown....could it end up costing more in the long run?

So I have begun the strenuous activity of looking at towers to replace my HP 190t (1st generation I7 processor). It would cost me about $1300 for just the tower - it would be a gaming computer capable of running Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020 which would need 1 tb SSD Primary hard drive and 512 gig SSD 2nd hard drive, 16 gigs of RAM, an Nvidia 8 gig graphics card like an RTX 2070, and a tenth generation I7 processor. Since my monitor (23" HD) and my printer are HP products, I have been looking at HP as a replacement tower so I can plug everything into the back of the new tower.
Another possibility is to just forget about getting a new tower and forget about Flight Simulator, and just get a compatible laptop that would accept my printer cable. That would cost a bit less but would be more portable so I could use it in any room of the house.
So I am now on a "safari" to determine what I want, what I need, and where to buy it. Wish me luck!

What cable does the printer use? I can’t imagine it’s not USB so anything you buy will have it.
You biggest headache may be what your monitor connection is. Most laptops today are HDMI only but like Stick said adapters exist for most anything.

All in ones have the tower built in...less wires. You can get a wireless printer, copier scanner for $60 to $100 that hooks up easily.

Just something to think about

That’s a nice solution for a little kitchen desk or bedroom setup. Looks much cleaner than a tower and monitor. Pair it with wireless keyboard and mouse and all you have is a power cord and maybe Ethernet line if you aren’t running wifi

I don’t game or edit video so I don’t even pay much attention to video cards.
