The Cost-Conscious Home-Buyer's Guide

By Jane White

During the last decade, something happened to the American dream of homeownership--it became too-high priced in the major coastal cities for many middle and even upper-class Americans to afford. Jane White takes you to twenty metropolitan markets you can afford and, in the process, tells you how to get there. Following an introductory chapter explaining how housing became unaffordable in this country, she takes you to places where the prices are still reasonable, such as Baltimore, Houston, Miami, Philadelphia, Orlando, Sacramento, and Tampa. White then goes on to explain how to move on your own, what types of homes are available, and how to buy insurance and shop for that all-important mortgage.
