Buying a home is probably the single most important investment
people ever make. But once you understand the process, much of the
fear will vanish. And the joy of owning your own home and putting
down roots offers security and satisfaction.
Stephen Pollan walks first-time buyers through the whole
process, from house hunting to moving day. He has seen the whole
picture as a lawyer, broker, banker, and financial adviser. He,
Mark Levine, and Michael Pollan show you how to:
search for a location and learn how to evaluate it
assemble your team: broker, lawyer, contractor, accountant,
inspector, and insurance broker
make sure your team serves you, not just the deal itself
use the tactics of negotiating, including offers, increments,
what to say, and when and where to say it
examine the contract in detail--what to look for and what to
insist on
choose the right bank for your mortgage, straighten out credit
difficulties and potential objections
prepare, practice, and plan for the "mysterious ritual" of
closing or settling on a house.
"The Field Guide to Home Buying in America" teaches you to be
your own best expert and makes home buying a joyous and rewarding
experience.
