Check if you have bare pipes in the attic, if you do, get them wrapped with pipe insulation. 

Has Owens corning insulation was added to the ceiling and a sound deafening highend cork floor to keep the place peaceful.

If you're paying for heat, it matters that the windows are replacement, roof is insulated, etc.

This is a long term buy and hold for me and I just had central AC installed so was looking for something that held some type of insulation value but was also concerned about hurricane protection as I don't want to be running around to all of my properties in the future putting up plywood.I wont be paying for heat but the bottom line is these windows will have to be replaced sooner or later. 

What specific problems do older homes have (structural, upgradeability, poor insulation, etc.) that you would look for?

Also need double pane insulated windows to go into existing wood frame.

I am going to start a significant remodel of my house in Santa Monica and wanted to maximize all possible rebates, grants or energy rebates that are available for new roofs, windows, appliances, insulation, landscaping..ect.I have a basic list (local municipality and appliance rebates) but didn't know if there was anything that I was missing or didn't know about...possibly other agencies?

Hi, my dad owns Xtra-Therm Insulation and insulates houses for Adair Homes, Reality Homes, Encinas Construction and a few others.

I have been searching online for some ideas for covering cinder block walls, mostly to help insulate better.

Flooring, drywall, insulation, electric, and HVAC will be needed.
