All rights reserved.| Synopsis In the usual user-friendly "Dummies" fashion, Eric Tyson and Ray Brown take the novice house-buyer through the stages of the process with lucid advice, practical step-by-step guidelines, and plenty of cartoons and sidebars. Beginning with the dilemma of whether you should be thinking about the subject at all "to buy or not to buy"), they then go on to a consideration of how much you can afford--and how to negotiate the best price. From working with realtors to finding a mortgage, they cover all bases, with an emphasis on the importance of investing the time to educate yourself about the process before you get into it.

I THINK ALL THE "FOR DUMMIES" BOOKS ARE PRETTY WELL DONE. THEY USE HUMOR TO HOLD YOUR ATTENTION. THIS BOOK IS ESPECIALLY GOOD FOR BEGINNERS I THINK. I'VE BEEN DOING THIS AWHILE BUT I ALSO READ SOME TIPS AND IDEAS I HADN'T THOUGHT OF OR HAD THOUGHT OF IN A DIFFERENT WAY. I'M ALWAYS LOOKING FOR GOOD IDEAS. THIS BOOK HAS SOME.
