Unfortunately, moving into a house will almost certainly give you more space to heat, which will more than make up for any *possible* added insulating efficiency.

not true. our apartments have too much heat and most people open the windows because it's too hot!
and our co-op pays for the oil we all pay for it, it's increased our maintenence charges about for $50 a month for 1 year as an assessment.
of course now we'll be even more pissed when we have to open the windows to keep the temperature at a bareable level.
