Starting Out: The Complete Home Buyer's Guide
We learn from our mistakes, but it's an expensive education when you're buying a house. Dian Hymer's home guide is a better bet, from the first "should we buy a house" glimmer to the closing. Written in a relaxed, organized manner, Hymer knows the housing game, she's familiar with the errors people make (like not reading the purchase agreement before signing), and she's knowledgeable about hot topics such as short sales and on-line home shopping. Rather than stumble blindly into many dollars worth of house, it's worth following Hymer's guide from the start--for your pocket and your sanity. |

Tips & Traps When Building Your Home
Leading real-estate author Robert Irwin provides home builders with valuable money-saving tips to building a home from the ground up in Tips & Traps When Building Your Home. Featuring a self-test to determine whether the reader is more suited to hiring it all out or doing some of it alone, this user-friendly guide outlines the perilous traps that often come with building your own home. Irwin helps readers determine whether or not to hire out the entire process or whether to act as the primary contractor. Once that is decided, Irwin then helps builders determine:
* How building and contracting effects home-owners' insurance
* Whether or not to hire an architect
* If building plans need to be presented to the local zoning board
* Contractors' and builders' adherence to electrical codes, sewage codes, and occupancy codes |

Build It Right! What to Look for in Your New Home
When you remodel or build a house, you have what can seem like a million options. Knobs, handles, or finger grooves in the kitchen cabinets? Self-rimming sink or drop-in? Top vent fireplace or direct vent? Often you're at the mercy of a contractor whose eye is on getting a bigger cut of the eventual cost, so you can end up with the most expensive--and not necessarily the best--choice. Myron Ferguson diagrams and describes the options efficiently and helpfully, and straightforwardly states when and why a certain choice is best. This simple, pragmatic guide will be worth its weight in gold to the first-time remodeler and builder. |
