Many older homes suffer from a lack of insulation, especially in the attic area. With the new spray foam insulation, you can prevent unseen cracks from leaking out heat. 40% of your home’s energy could be escaping merrily through invisible openings; this is one way to keep it inside and your heating bill lower. Doors and windows can benefit from extra insulation as well.

While the question elicited many angry comments by agents all over the country, one must realize that this is merely a reflection of the general attitude of the public towards Realtors® and brokers in general. Since real estate is such a large purchase for most people, it seems that the natural view of those who charge for their services in finding and purchasing a home is one of suspicion. 

On the positive side, a haunting can be a plus for some buyers. So much that there are realties and real estate agents who specialize in this type of real estate. If people want something interesting to discuss around the coffee table, this might just be it. Some people like the prestige of living in a “haunted” house. There are those who neither believe or disbelieve, but they like the style and they like the price.

Some people feel the need to display dead things on their wall. Moose or deer heads, big scaly fish or bearskin rugs (complete with head and gaping mouth). As proud as the owners are, most guests are not impressed by these trophies and they are best stored in a dark corner of the basement or attic.
