Steven, Dont know if you are still following this post or not, but here is my two cents. As far as the paint goes. If there was a mold issue that was professionally remediated in the past, after the mold was remediated, they would seal the entire area with a type of primer to prevent it from comming back (it only takes a few spores to get some moisture to come back). I have seen this done on a few houses that I have been called back to verify the work was done and the ventillation issues were corrected. This would also explain the power vent. The cause of the mold was probably a lack of ventillation. Attached is a photo of an attic that had the mold professionally remediated. I would recommend that the buyer request the documentation on the remediation or if the seller insisted that it was the paint to reduce heat (I have heard of it but never seen it, thought it was silver). Eitherway at least they know. If it was mold and there is documentation with air sampling after the remediation they are fine.
