5.0 out of 5 stars It saved me $10,000, June 9, 2008

By	Candice (California) - See all my reviews

This book put me in the driver seat during negotiations for our house and the real estate agent for the housing development was frequently surprised at some of the things I asked for and applauded me for it. It literally saved me $10,000. I paid no lot premium, only because the book informed me about them! This book was worth every penny to me and then some!

4.0 out of 5 stars GREAT BOOK, January 3, 2002

By	Sammy Schillaci (Birmingham, AL) - See all my reviews

This is a great book for the average Joe, easy to read and understand. I read it in one weekend and was truly enlightened. This is a must have for the informed new home buyer.

4.0 out of 5 stars Helpful information but a little full of itself, August 25, 2008

By	A. Risio (Germany) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Overall a good picture inside the New Home Selling business. Their advice is good but much of it is common sense. Several areas of the book, especially the demand that your Real Estate Agent must own a copy of their book or the last chapter that openly pushes you recommend your family and friends buy the book, are self serving and detract from the spirit of the book that they are looking out for your best interest. Other than these few areas where the book drops to the level of self interest, I found the overall content to be good and the look inside the industry extremely helpful for anyone considering buying a new home in a developed community. A must read for first time new home buyers.
