User Comments about the Home Buying For Dummies, 3rd edition

Full of interesting things about home buying. But in the end I felt like I learned a lot from this book. I wish that in some parts it would have gone more in depth.



I recently ordered several mortgage books as learning and reference tools as I embark on my new career as a loan officer. The book arrived in a timely manner and in the condition described. I have not read any of the books from cover to cover, but they are serving me well for the purpose intended.



If you've never bought a home before, buy this book. This doesn't give you every single detail that you need to know, but it will help you ask informed questions and lead you on your way. It gives you a good overview of many areas of the homebuying process. If the thought of purchasing your first home is a bit daunting, educate yourself.



it is a must read if you are a first time home buyer. I am not money savvy, but the morgage section is simple enough that I feel that helped me getting the best deal possible. I knew what to ask, what to expect.



Kudos to the authors again for another quality book.Read this book in any fashion you like and mark points down to inquire with Realtors, loan officer, appraisers and inspectors. This book goes without saying that it covers all the basics and provides additional information through web links. This is my 4th Dummy book and will continue to use it as a reference for many years to come. You'll make some mad for being informed and catch others trying to lie or sugar coat it to you. Easy read, funny at times without being to cheesy.
