Home service pros! Have you noticed in your areas any growth in your sales due to families NOT moving. I noticed in my Midwest area many people are investing in their home with interest rates rising. They want their home to look and behave the way they want it. What have you noticed in your areas?

People have massively started investing more in their home rather than moving and we've been booked up. They have also become more demanding and crankier and it has not be a pleasurable experience...

I've seen the opposite - we've had lots of sales close or lose out because people were getting priced out of our area. I guess there are really some random shifts happening!
