Got some time off and looking to knock out some home projects. Basically the house struggles to get in the lower 70s unless it rains at or near sundown. So i am getting the feeling that we are leaking air and don't have enough insulation in the attic

I know i need to check for air leaks and fill whatever i can. Then add more blown in insulation. That is all going to happen.

Now i just want to know what is worth it. Should i get an attic fan or try to install a radiant barrier? any other ideas are welcome
