Home Rich

Well written, easy to understand. Bought a copy for my daughter graduating from college and my youngest sister.

A very helpful book

I bought this book after buying a home. This is my first time buying a house on my own and this book is full of ideas on what to do to increase the value on my home. As I begin to tackle projects, it will guide me in making the right decisions as to the ones that will add value and those that are not so helpful or will even hurt the value. I can then choose the projects that are most beneficial. Some ideas are so simple you wouldn't even think about it. For example; just choosing the right color to paint your house can make it sell better. For those still looking for a home it is full of information about selecting the right home for you and your family as well as choosing the right financing. This book is well worth reading for anyone who owns a home or is considering buying one.
