This book is a breakthrough manual for "how-to" buy real estate. Using simple language, a large number of examples, and an organized approach to each chapter, Marilyn Sullivan shows every real estate agent and home buyer innovative techniques for obtaining real estate.

I knew that Equity Sharing was a proven technique to buy and sell real estate, but this book outlines strategies for real life situations. If you are getting a divorce and want to keep your home, The New Home Buying Strategy shows you how to do it! If you don't have enough money for a downpayment, and if you wisely don't wish to buy with 100% financing, then the New Home Buying Strategy shows numerous examples of exactly how to locate an investor and make your dream come true. By the way, a hidden benefit of this book is that it is a significant help to investors as well as buyers. The book is filled with tables, illustrations and real life examples of how to calculate ownership percentages, payoffs, buyouts, etc. In other words, what I loved about this book was that it is truly an operating manual, not just another overview book. I highly recommend this book, its author, and the concepts around which the book is written.

I have only read the first three chapters, but so far, I find the content clear, direct, and nicely repetitive -- just enough to function as cumulatively self-drilling in the basics of joint ownership. The writer clearly knows what she is talking about, and her enthusiasm comes through to make the read an eager one. I would have rated this a '5,' but I haven't finished the book yet, and who knows what's in store.
