Book Description

Millions of homes are financed each year and millions more are refinanced, a process that routinely leaves consumers dazed, weary, and paying more than they should.

For more than a decade The Common-Sense Mortgage has been a consumer staple, used by borrowers nationwide to find better home loan terms and lower costs. Written in plain language, clearly organized, and filled with tables and examples, The Common-Sense Mortgage shows how the lending system works, reviews dozens of individual programs, and raises the questions consumers should ask.

5.0 out of 5 stars Very good book, March 17, 2005
This review is from: The Common-Sense Mortgage : How to Cut the Cost of Home Ownership by $50,000 or More (Paperback)
This book is a good, basic, organized introduction to the world of mortgage. This is a serious book. I enjoyed reading it and learned a lot from it.
I guess that even the title "save 50,000.00" can be considered correct. The mortgage is more expensive than your home. If you do not know what you are doing, you will pay a hefty price.
