Great Basic Book

I found this book to be easy to follow and helpful in my process. I think the most important information is "How to find the best __________" --- fill in the blank, Realtor, Mortgage Broker, Inspector. It's very helpful to have a list of questions when interviewing people who know a lot more about the subject that I do. I'm glad I started my research with this book.

essential guide

while some of the stuff is basic info, there's some really excellent advice and info that even a mortgage banker i spoke with didn't know about. definitely worth it

Excellent comprehensive guide, yet easy to understand

For me, because this is the only first-time buyer's guide that discusses in detail issues around getting a personal gift or personal loan towards purchasing a home, it already deserves 5 stars. But it's more than just that. This is a very comprehensive guide with a helpful accompanying CD-ROM. The materials are organized clearly and presented in an easy-to-understand manner. I had read other guides such as the Dummies one which tended to be really verbose and confusing. This book stands out as a highly useable companion as you search and purchase your first home (and as you deal with real estate agents and lawyers). Very highly recommended.

Great - Covers all the basics

My boyfriend and I are buying a place together. He already owns his condo though, so has been through this before, where as I haven't. As a law student, I've used nolo law before and this book was similarly great. Gave me a great foundation so I could understand all my options. Most helpful was the entire chapter on financing and what kind of loan works best for you.

This team approach sets the Nolo guide far above most authored by real estate agents alone.
