Customer Reviews

This book is Great!

This book is very easy to read and contains all types of information about selling a home that most people wouldn't know (unless they were a realtor.) I highly recommend this book to get the most money out of your house.

Be prepared before you sell

Very detailed explanations on marketing your home for sale, using a realtor or selling "For Sale By Owner," handling offers, and options to selling. I found it well worth reading.
