Amazon.com Review:
This may be the best comprehensive guide for homebuyers. Home Buying for Dummies is coauthored by Eric Tyson,author of several other books in the For Dummies series, and RayBrown, a long-time real estate professional. Like other books in theseries, this one is an easy and even entertaining read. But it doesnot gloss over details in pursuit of simplicity. Home Buying forDummies covers all the bases, providing clear explanations andreasonable judgments on how to select a mortgage, hire a real estateagent, find the right house, and negotiate a good deal. The book goesfurther than most in providing helpful, specific information. Forexample, in discussing ways to save money for a future down payment,Home Buying for Dummies even includes the phone numbers forvarious mutual funds appropriate to different investment timeframes. --Barry Mitzman
