Questions Every First-Time Home Buyer Should Ask : With Answers from Top
Brokers from Around the Country; by Ilyce R. Glink

List: $14.00 ~
From
The
WomanSource Catalog & Review: Tools for Connecting the Community for
Women; review by FGP, 02/01/97:
Discrimination is still a factor in the marketplace and women home buyers,
especially single women, can be susceptible to being taken advantage of by
sellers who think they can pull one over on you because you're a woman.
Additionally, real estate brokers and lenders are sometimes wary of women
purchasing homes by themselves. Your best defense is to know what you're
talking about and this book covers virtually everything a first-time home
buyer should know: what to look for in a home, how to prequalify for a mortgage,
financing, house inspections, closing procedures-all presented in a question
and answer format. Owning a home does take a certain amount of responsibility,
but it's fun and it's a good investment. The stuff you need to know isn't
difficult, and if you know what to expect and what questions to ask, it will
remove a lot of anxiety from your first purchase.
Synopsis:
A book that deciphers the jargon, matches desires with means, keeps an eye
on the details and helps first-timers land the home of their dreams. Glink
gives tips for dealing step-by-step with the intricacies of negotiating a
mortgage, checking to see that the dishwasher works, and everything in-between.

How Do You Know if the Loan Officer Is Doing His or Her Job?
Generally (and this includes extremely busy periods of low-interest-rate
refinancing), the loan application shouldn't take more than three to four
weeks in most areas for approval. Ask the loan officer how long the approval
process should take....There's nothing wrong with a loan officer's calling
to say that four pieces of documentation are missing from the file. But if
you're getting multiple requests for documentation, then the loan officer
didn't do his or her job at the beginning....It is wise to discuss any particular
issues affecting your financial picture early in the process and preferably
before you put down any money. Some of these issues might include credit
problems, previous bankruptcies, divorces, recent job changes, etc.
