Wiring!

Sigh. Hubby is trying to get the wiring in this old house replaced so our home owner's policy won't be canceled. The basement was easy but he's running into snags from the attic. All the insurance companies we spoke with will no longer insure knob and tube wiring - and USAA was the only one who would actually go ahead and issue the policy so we could close and move in! Then we have 60 days to get it done.... which sounds like a lot but hubby's been in the field a lot too. By the way knob and tube is perfectly safe unless it's the aluminum stuff (yes you can tell) or is fraying, broken, etc! Gotta love the insurance companies! $$$$$
