Most stuff in CHS that's worth buying is gone in pocket listings or shortly after hitting the MLS.

@David Butcher Buying a property in ch 13 means they filed to keep the house while in foreclosure.

The house was built in 1910, wood frame and I just re-checked the attic on our way through (we live out of state) yesterday - it has about 2-3 inches of old blown insulation.We of course didn't buy this as an investment property, so we are only $150 over the mortgage, insurance and taxes on a monthly basis.

I would drop it to about 18 inches, that way you can get better air flow for flame combustion and you do not restrict the heat it gives off.  

The wind tore down her pool cage and the storm water flooded her older home (and car) several inches. 

im thinking for a one square inch of a postcard or letter why not.

I'm a welder by trade so I built a 4 inch deposit  pole it's buried about 3 feet in the ground so they can't steal it they insert the money thru a hole in pipe and above ground level I made a section of pipe that comes out with a stain less steel  security  lock on back side  pretty much any box with lock would work  attached  to property just make  sure they don't put cash  or it might just disapear

This all goes much deeper than the three inches below the surface where inexperienced real estate operators/investors frolic along with W.

The tenant pool, however, is about 5 miles wide and 1 inch deep. 

What you are referring to is the difference between going a mile wide and an inch deep, or going an inch wide and a mile deep...
