House with solid brick walls and external insulation

Can you see extractor fans in the kitchen and bathroom, or a tumble dryer? Some times it is just the people that live there never open windows and use rads to dry washing.

Most houses can be fixed.

I think the roof vents are simply called tile vents as they replace a tile

The bumps on the roof seem to match tile vents. Thanks for giving me the name. 


I wonder what sort of ventilation system those are attached to. I didn't see or hear any extractor fans in action. That I noticed. 

Unfortunately my family is not able to go beyond the first, unpleasant, impression with that house. I'm perhaps the most practically orientated among us, and would consider a fix. But, also the insulation is thinner than I expected. And, that would be a lot of work and even more expensive than insulating a bare house to improve it. I assume.

If you are prepared to throw enough money at it, any problem can be fixed.

Sometimes, it is cheaper to knock down and start again.
