Interesting point about cg nat. With my current ISP setup I get an actual (dynamic) ip4 address and ip6 thru 6rd. Can I still point my domain to the nat’d address?

Get a nice hardware capable of running opnSense and use that immediately after your new ISP device. Just ignore their WiFi router, it will be crap whatever it is, unless you cat reflash with OpenWRT.
Be prepared that the new ISP will .most probably have CG-NAT.
Note: opnSense is based on *BSD so make sure the hardware you buy has supported 10gb network cards, at least two.

No, if you are batted, you will need a vps or some kind of real public address and tunnel to it for external to internal access. A VPN with port forwarding will also work.

This. It’s how I set up my local network, tho I went with pFsense and then hung Pi-Hole+unbound off the managed switch. I did have to set up a vlan just for my lady friend because, apparently, screens full of ads is exactly what she likes, and I don’t want to have to reinvent the wheel every time she comes over. So, I guess you could say it’s pain avoidance. LOL
