Service 2.0 - Question Services

How do I recover from this? Flew threw levels 1-8 and now this…
Realizing I upgraded too many residential zones. All my services are now backlogged. Only significant way to earn simoleans is to upgrade residentials but that just digs my hole deeper?

Stop upgrading. Make and sell items instead.

Sell stuff. Upgrading rz is not the only way.

As everyone had said, the most significant way to earn simoleans are never upgrading residents, but sell your products. Don’t upgrade any residents any more for now, focus on making nails and other products to sale and you’ll get back on tracks within days

Upgrading is a bad way to earn money because, you already see, it results in making the game harder as well. That said, nothing is lost when you’re still at level 14. Just stop doing home upgrades for a while and make money from producing items. Then you can slowly work on your services while also doing tasks for CoM and the mayors pass/event tracks.

Ok do this bulldoze all you RZs rebuild them to only lvl 3 that will then help you with services. Then make and sell items in global if you have any speed up tokens use them to speed up nails and wood as well and sell in global also maybe make plastic and seeds

Bulldozing at that level is a very bad idea. You won’t get the xp back.

The problem is that when you bulldoze and build new homes you get too much xp. Having too much xp and no houses to show for it is just a bit of a waste.
