Oodles of books are already written that explain how to buy or sell real estate. This book does the same thing but with a twist. I first walk you through the process of buying a home. Then I go through the selling process. As I go through each process step by step, I do two things. First, I put myself in the shoes of the buyer or seller at crucial moments and explain the important questions that should be asked at that time. This is important, because too often the real estate person or loan officer will not bring up what may be considered irrelevant at the time but is important to be aware of. The second thing I do is help the reader understand how the real estate person and loan officer operate. This is critical because it becomes apparent how this understanding may affect how you make certain decisions.
This book is jam-packed with details to help you get informed about real estate basics, no fluff. Anyone new to the real estate scene will gain valuable knowledge and confidence before choosing a real estate agent and loan officer, as well as save potentially thousands of dollars by knowing how to avoid the many pitfalls along the road to buying or selling that first home.
