By Dan Ramsey

Book Overview

In this eye-opening book from an expert in the field, take an insider look into the real estate market -- and find the tools you need to make important housing decisions.
Before investing in owning a home or apartment, readers should know what their real estate agent or broker is doing. The possibility for mistakes and dishonesty will always be there, and consumers need to be fully armed to make sure their dream of owning a house or apartment doesn't become a financial or domestic nightmare.
Readers will be much more confident about the sale knowing -- for themselves -- how to get the best price for property and mortgage rates, the pros and cons of hiring a broker, and how to determine if property values will rise or fall.

I recommend Dan's book as a no-nonsense guide to getting your money's worth when buying a house, condo, townhouse, or co-op apartment. He tells you what to look for -- and what to watch out for -- as you choose an agent, lender, title company, and other professionals. He clearly explains the real estate process in terms that consumers can understand. Whether you are working through a real estate agent or directly with sellers, this book is a useful tool for cutting through the legal mumbo-jumbo that surrounds the biggest purchase of your life. Highly recommended reading for home buyers.
