“I bought my house in the first days of the pandemic, and my Realtor gave me a recommendation for a guy to replace the water heater. The plumber came out and saw my busted-up AC condenser outside and said, ‘I can put in a whole new furnace and AC for $4,000.’

“I wanted to save up a bit, so I waited a year. I called him again, and he said it was $6,500. I had only saved up $4,000 and wanted to do some other things as well, so I waited another year. Called him again and he said $8,000. At this point, I didn’t see the price ever going back down, so I pulled the trigger in June this year and gave the dude $8,500.”
