Very Good

I was hoping to learn more about mortgage points, different types of loans, renting out properties, etc. It's good if you don't know anything, but if you've done your research I'd say skip this one. I will say that I learned a lot about searching and comparing prospective houses.

good primer, very basic

Would you listen to Home Buying for Dummies, Third Edition again? Why?

The book does a good job of explaining the basics of home buying in a chronological order that makes sense to the reader or listener. Highly recommended for those simply trying to understand how the process works.

Great Book

A very basic book but good info if you don't have a clue. Not much details on many subjects, very generalized.

Very Basic Generalized Book

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
It gives you phone numbers to call, checklist questions and financial equations to apply to your situation. It covers things throughly, but doesn't seem to cover everything that it could. While it wasn't as insightful and helpful as I had hoped, I don't feel it was a waste of money.

The first reader's voice is somewhat dry, while the second reader's voice is more tolerable.

Good, but not great

This was a very helpful book for me as I get ready to purchase my first home! A very well rounded source of information and tips for buying a home. Thank you!

A well rounded source of information for homebuying!

they say that with an educational book, if you get at least one good nugget of information then it could easily pay for itself in just one sentence. This book has several of these "golden nuggets", that could easily pay for itself hundreds of times over!

A must for experienced, or new home buyers!
