bear in mind the greenhouse will trap heat itself.
so it has a lot of gains during the day and if you
design it using passive methods, like big thermal mass
on the north side, that alone will help.

Perhaps build the greenhouse using a tank as the north wall. Then insulate the tank.

Nonsense.

Run the NYTimes budget simulator, roll back the Bush Cuts, fix the militar spending, invest a bit in America and roll.

the question is how efficient the house is at insulation.

the other is your design limit.

The Average cold weather is 49F

9 days have broken 32F in 140 years.

The coldest day recorded was 25F.

i would suggest designing to 33F, and if you get an extreme cold weather event get some space heaters.

and set 4241 degree days for heating.

here’s a good calculator, set your Insulation and details, and calculate your losses to match the BTU’s in your tank

[quote=Tillers]Of the two short sales I know of that went through, both were “inside” jobs. One of them:

The listing agent owns the house. She list’s it but won’t show it or work with anyone on it. Except for her fiance. So, she ends up selling it to him and they move in, then get married. So she essentially was able to keep her house that she already had been living in several years prior (she was renting it out in the meantime) at a substantially lower price.

.[/quote]

If he’s smart, he thanks her and kicks her out.
Now he has a great deal on a house and can meet younger women with better job prospects.

Seriously, the deal is the banks need to
work to eliminate conflicts, such as
you describe,

if a Short Sale is proposed, they need to check
that the Listing agent was selected randomly,
and they need to keep offer windows open and judge value against market conditions.
