My husband and I have had mortgages for 25 years. I wish we had this book way back when we started. We would have saved thousands of dollars! Everything is explained in understandable, step-by-step language. This book is essential for anyone with a mortgage.

This review is from: Navigating the Mortgage Maze: The Simple Truth About Financing Your Home (Paperback)

This book is not without useful information. Roughly every 50 pages, something useful can be gleaned from it.

However, it is painful filtering through all of the endless rambling nonsense and rhetorical questions that the author poses between the few useful pieces of information shared.

The author actually continues to try to sell you the book, throughout the entire book. It's clear that if this guy wrote clearly and concisely, that he wouldn't have had a book so sell. 98% of this text is filler.

This book should have been a 2-page pamphlet, not a 236 page ocean of useless verbiage.
