Home Buying for Dummies®

In the personal finance category, audio lessons on real estate strike a chord with listeners because buying a home is such a personal matter. Brett Barry makes this splendidly organized material even more powerful by reading it with grace and quiet authority. He keeps just enough distance from the lessons' emotional aspects to keep listeners engaged and curious. Presented in clear language, the audio flows well as it explains broad concepts and processes like market value and lifestyle issues. It also offers benchmarks and practical guidance to compensate for the human frailty we amateurs discover in ourselves when buying a home. Don't buy a home without hearing this invaluable material.
