Need a new roof!
Well, this sucks. I need a new roof.

Granted it's not 100% crap yet, but I don't anticipate it lasting through the next winter. about 40% of my shingles have lost the asphalt and are curling.

When I bought this house I planned to live in it for 5 years and split. Circumstances have changed due to the job market and I will need to live here for at least a couple more years.

I've only lived in my house for 5 years and only have about 6K in equity.

I've added up the square footage (minus the slope) of the house at 1996. I searched the interwebs for calculators and I see that I'm going to need about 60 squares + other crap. Unless my math is wrong that's almost $4,500 just in shingles!

I've looked into teh HUD 203K, but don't think I'd qualify.

Besides a home equity loan anyone have any good ideas on financing?

I would find out when the insurance guy is coming and throw several bags of ice on the roof right as he pulls up so you got proof it was hail. Make sure you break up the ice real good and spread it around because if you just throw the whole bag up there without opening it ,it may look suspicious. That's how I ****ed up the first time.

I forgot to mention that it will also help if you can time it when a dark cloud passes over. Thats where I ****ed up the second time.

Three tabs run about $67 p/sq, a square of 30 year laminate is about $87, 15lb felt is $16 or so for a 4 sq roll.

Not really, insulating and making sure your attic is properly vented will have a much greater effect on your energy usage, especially in the summertime.

GAF offers a "Cool Colors" series that is energy star compliant, I think Certainteed has something similar.

Bah...sounds like a gimmick to me. I know from experience darker roofs get a lot hotter in the summer, but the attic is supposed to provide a buffer between the house and roof. As I mentioned earlier, as long as it's adequately vented, it shouldn't be an issue.
