    YOU DRIVE DOWN a beautiful road, gazing at the large homes with plush green lawns and sparkling lights inviting you inside for just a moment. Your car zips past and you can't help but wonder: How did they manage to get that house of their dreams?

    You wake up every morning, work hard, and come home. When that home means rent, a part of you, even if not fully awakened, longs for a home of your own, some small piece of paradise. You start to fantasize about it: a condo in the city with tall ceilings and river views; a single family home with two stories so your children can go to the best schools in the area; or maybe a ranch with a really great garage where you can work on your car at all hours of the night. You playfully fantasize about a beach home, no matter how impractical, and somehow, that longing turns to action. Every longing eventually becomes a reality, even homebuying. 

    On these pages, experts from across the nation guide you through the homebuying process, explaining: 

    • Tactics to help you improve your credit score
    • How to be financially prepared to buy
    • Why a home inspection will save you money
    • What to look for in a great real-estate agent, lender and inspector
    • How to shop a neighborhood and home with a trained eye
    • How to negotiate the price and contract - looking out for your interests
    • Blunders to avoid
    • How to avoid a smooth closing
    • How to protect your investment
    • And so much more!

    We will get you on the path to homeownership and guide you through the steps of becoming a buyer with purchase power. There is no greater relief than being able to call a lender, tell them your situation and how you have been preparing to buy (after reading The Everything Homebuying Book, of course), and hear them say, "Your income and credit look great. Your debt is minimal. We can definitely get you in a home."

    You're one page closer to your dream home.
