I think you could make the argument that people working from home don't drive as much and so are putting less wear and tear on their vehicles which mean they last longer which means they aren't getting replaced as often which leads to reduced new car sales.

Of course, I think one could also make the argument that people are realizing what a POS Elon is and there are more and more electric vehicles to choose from which is probably the more likely reason for the reduced sales at Tesla.

Yeah, that's less than a 10% discount on their cheapest board. (The pint starts at $1,050) You are better off waiting for a sale.

If demolition is even an option, the house itself is likely in bad shape and not livable

Not necessarily. I don't know if this is the case here but some places, people view the property location as more valuable and have too much money so they buy the house/property and then knock the house down and build what they want no matter the condition of the original house.

This happened to someone I know, their house needed a little work but was perfectly fine. The new owner didn't even go inside to look at the house. Made an offer and then tore it down to build something new.

Oooh, I like this idea... I've thought about running vaultwarden but like you I pay for bitwarden premium because I think it's critical for me and I like the service and want to see them continue. Using it as a backup, then I can still support them and run my own backup.
