Title: The Complete Idiot's Guide to Buying and Selling a Home, Third Edition (3rd Edition) by Shelley O'Hara, Nancy D. Warner, Jody P. Schaeffer ISBN: 002863960X Publisher: Alpha Books Pub. Date: 15 September, 2000 Format: Paperback Volumes: 1 List Price(USD): $16.95 |

Summary: 3rd Edition
Comment: I reorganized the information and examples in this book for the 3rd edition and want to point out a few things to potential readers. Because the book just came out in September 2000, note that the two previous reviews are based on the 1st or 2nd editions, not this third revision. Please check out this new edition because it has been reworked to better prepare you to buy or sell a home. You get more information on determining how much home you can afford, understanding your credit, and finding a mortgage broker (to get qualified) before you find your dream home. I truly believe that the first five chapters in this book will help you be better prepared to buy and sell your home and guide you through the rest of the book.

Summary: Too moderate for me
Comment: Having read "Home Buying for Dummies" by Eric Tyson and Ray Brown which I highly recommend (with five stars) to all the home seekers, now I understand why I'm not really happy with this book. I find this "Idiot's Guide" approach too moderate, lacking in-depth analyses or comments in many areas. (e.g. how to spot ideal locations, etc. ) The author, in my view, doesn't take a stand and states her opinion clearly enough, which sometimes makes me feel like I am reading a free government brochure on home buying A to Z. Perhaps one single volume is not enough to cover such vast and complicated areas as buying and selling homes.
Although I will keep this book and use it as a reference/glossary when necessary, I'd probably rely on Tyson/Brown's book for "tips" most of the time.
Rating: 5
Summary: Very easy to follow. Written in plain English!
Comment: I highly recommend this book. Because of the simple wording, I actually felt comfortable and understood the real estate terminology.
This book will ease your fears about buying/selling a home.
