After much gentle persistence, four of the six siblings agreed to meet.

I'm newbie here, please treat gently :-)I have dilemma to solve, would love all your thoughts and advices.We own a TH that we bought in 2006.

When I first found this deal, the two whites were twisted together and the lights were always on.

They lie & twist the facts about how the industry works. 

Wait a minute, one more for the road Do any body have a system or formula they follow that i can learn and twist a little?

If there is/was little insulation in the attic (the ceiling joists are exposed above the insulation), you would have cooler/warmer temperature along the bottom of the joists which could both cause moisture issues and may have affected how the smoke particulate stuck to the ceiling.If you take the pointed tip of a knife or {one blade} of a pair of scissors and {gently} press into the drywall along one of those lines, is the drywall hard or does the knife tip slid in fairly easily?  

This is actually a strategy I was looking to employ only with a bit of a twist.

Or a subversive marketing twist in order to get people to open the letter?

Gently remind the seller that that to invest in this property, you have to cover repairs, closing costs, and carrying cost. 

There are a few new twists and was hoping to could help give me input on what you would do.House:- 3985 sqft 6 bed 5 full bath - A beautiful 1000+ sqft open studio with bedroom and full bath attached which is part of the overall sqft.
