The roof and foundation of my house needs to be fixed. If I get the roof done first because it is leaking, will it be affected when the foundation is fixed?

Should I be worried that external doors in my home are shifting to a point that I can't lock them without lifting them up? When we first moved into the house we noticed that both the front door and the back door had slight open area at the top of the door and locking them required a little fiddling. Unfortunately the gap at the top of the door (especially the back) has grown wider and it's near impossible to lock the door without a lot of work.

When it comes to major home renovations, what improvements/fixes produce the best ROI? I just purchased a seriously outdated fixer-upper, and I’m hoping to renovate the most important parts of the home and put it back on the market within a year. I don't have time to renovate the entire home, and I'd like to know what kinds of renovations produce the best ROI so I know where to start.

We're redoing my parents roof and their chimney needs some repair work as well. Is it better to do the masonry work before or after we do the rest of the roof?

Solutions for cooling a hot room We have a 14' x 20' room with southern exposure, 16' ceilings, lots of windows, and registers in the ceiling. It gets very hot in the afternoon. I'm looking for suggestions for how to keep it more comfortable. It shares a wall with the hallway where our thermostat is installed. Might we add a through-wall ventilation fan near the floor of the room, along with a vent near the ceiling, to pull cooler air from the hallway and let the warmer air escape? Any other ideas? Thanks!
