Any general lending library will find it a winner

Real estate attorney and educator Shari Olefson is an expert in the current mortgage crisis and its effects on homeowners, and here explains legal and financial terminology and how the national mortgage system works. From choosing a mortgage professional and deciding which product fits to getting the best fees and services, it's a fine collection of real-life stories from frustrated lenders, distressed borrowers, and others caught in the mortgage crunch. Any general lending library will find it a winner.

A must read

Wow! It's rare to find a book that is so topical and so detailed. If you want a better understanding of the current foreclosure crisis, get this book. If you want help understanding how the mortgage and foreclosure processes work in general, get this book. Olefson has laid it all out in the most understandable format. I don't know how she did that in such a timely fashion--impressive.

Very informative and timely

Just read Foreclosure and want to highly recommend it to anyone wanting to have some clear understanding of the reasons for the real estate meltdown and how to handle financing issues going forward. Very practical, useful and insightful. A real handbook for the times.

The Best Book Ever On The Foreclosure Crisis

Shari Olefson has hit the ball out of the ballpark! "Foreclosure Nation: Mortgaging the American Dream" is a masterpiece. Ms. Olefson, a renowned South Florida commercial real estate attorney/mediator and partner at Fowler White Boggs in Ft. Lauderdale, has written a book filled with erudition. Great value here for homeowners in crisis, the media, the legal profession, legislators and even, yes, the Obama White House! Cudos, Ms. Olefson, on an indispensable addition to every thoughtful person's library.

What A Call To Action!

This is THE most comprehensive, easy to read book on a topic I knew very little about ever. I was looking for a quck way to get up to speed on this whole crises and especially the parts that will affect my home value. Anyone with similar concerns needs to read this book. It explains all of the comlicated things you hear about on the news (like mortgage backed securities???) in a way my 12 year old would understand and shows what that has to do with your home mortgage. On top of that Olefson poses some ideas and questions that really get you thinking about what direction we want our country to be going in. This is the only book you'll ever have to read on the subject. And reading it puts you way ahead of anyone who hasn't in terms of knowing what to expect during the next few years and planning accordingly. I HIGHLY recommend it.
