Highly recommend for anyone unfamiliar with buying a house. It was so down-to-Earth, funny, and informative in a condensed way. I went from initially feeling terrified of buying a home to feeling excited.

The main draw of this book is the style, tone, and organization. Basically all of this info is available online. However, the organization and style make it more accessible and enjoyable than Google sleuthing and cross-referencing.

A great place to start if you have zero knowledge about the house-buying process (like me). I did ding a star because I think the authors don't completely understand how renting an apartment works.

I genuinely recommend this book to anyone even considering purchasing a home. I learned so much about each step of the process from deciding if you truly should purchase a home to how to get through closing. If you want to be an informed buyer and take an active role in the process of home ownership this is a great place to start!

A concise book of under 200 pages. 

The content of this book is extremely helpful, vital even, for those who feel overwhelmed with the house buying process. I would recommend reading this book if you are considering purchasing a home in the United States. You will be glad you did. Unfortunately, some of the humor made me want to violently cringe in frustration but that is a small price to pay for the knowledge.  I also felt like perhaps the book could’ve been organized a bit better but overall, it went by quickly and proved to be extremely useful. The book also offers online resources and checklists that help make the process much easier. 

Overall, noticeably imperfect but invaluable.
