Quick Book Review: It's Not About Rate--The Right Way to Get a Mortgage

If you've bought a house successfully before, or have adequate knowledge to do so without the wheels coming off your finances, this book is NOT for you.

I bought this book (more like a booklet) looking for some new strategy or product that would benefit me beyond what was already being offered--this book did not contain one. Instead, it's a primer on mortgages, explains them in detail, and the ramifications of each type of mortgage and how it affects you. It also enlarges the fine print on a lot of those documents we're all forced to sign at closing.

I made a huge mistake with this one, so I'm donating it to my library--I'm sure the thousands of people who lost their homes (or are about to) can make use of it more than I can.

This is what happens when the book's contents (or at least the table of contents) aren't available on Amazon for me to peruse before buying.
