Kosoff's book takes you where most non-fiction writers don't tread. They either don't have the courage or the talent to infuse their work with both hard-hitting and insightful research and humorous stories that add spice and flair to the topic. Kosoff finds a way. Obviously, Mr. Kossof has been around the game for some time because he seems to know all the "tricks of the trade" and how best to find your way through the myriad of obstacles in the home buying arena. My only regret is that he didn't put pen to paper a decade ago -- it would have saved me a multitude of headaches and a mountain of cash.

Not only is this book incredibly informative and easy to read, but it's entertaining as well. Kosoff's humorous and conversational tone really breaks down the home buying process in an accessible way and is a great reference guide to use from preapproval to closing.

A friend recommeded this book when my husband and I started shopping for our new house. It is so funny and informative! The book has terrific indiser advice on every aspect of the buying process. It even covers things like home inspections, who should pay for what and how to understand an adjustable rate mortgage.I felt in control and spoke with authority to my loan officer when we applied for a home loan. Buying my house was stressful enough but what I learned from this book made it much easier.
