Product Description
With more than 25,000 copies in print, Robert Irwin's classic continues to answer the questions for an increasingly large share of the population ready to buy their first home. First time home buyers, many young and computer savvy, will find the guidance they need to successfully navigate the home buying process, combined with the best online resources available to make that process easier.
From the first homeownership glimmer through the closing--including a discussion of the nearly universal problem of "buyer's remorse" when the deal is done--Irwin coaches people into achieving the American dream of owning a home for the first time.
He addresses every issue required to experience the most trouble-free first time home buying experience possible, including:
* determining whether it's better to buy or rent
* identifying "must have" features and affordable price range
* scoping out the available properties using the internet
* investigating credit history using online resources
* finding the best mortgage and arranging pre-approval of financing
* dealing with the issues of disclosures and inspections
