Title: Tips & Traps When Buying A Condo, Co-op, or Townhouse by Robert Irwin ISBN: 0-07-134848-4 Publisher: McGraw-Hill Trade Pub. Date: 31 August, 1999 Format: Paperback Volumes: 1 List Price(USD): $14.95 |
Average Customer Rating: 3 (5 reviews)
Rating: 1
Summary: not for city buyers
Comment: The title may talk about "condo, co-op, or townhouse" but it is clear the author has nothing in mind but those awful suburban townhouse or condo developments. There are numerous references to density being bad and to things like counting the number of parking places. Not of use to someone who is interested in purchasing actual city housing.
Rating: 4
Summary: A good primer.
Comment: As a prospective first-time property purchaser, I found this book to contain some good information on the particulars of condos and townhouses. I did not read the section on Co-ops however. Parts of the book seemed to contain redundant information, not necessarily for emphasis. Perhaps the chapters were intended to be somewhat self-contained. "Buying a home for Dummies" has been my first resource. I'd recommend reading something like it first in order to fully appreciate the differences w/condos and townhouses described in this book.
Rating: 2
Summary: Somewhat helpful, lots of filler
Comment: Like all the books I've read on this subject, you'll get some useful advice, but you'll have to wade through a lot of filler.
