Overview

For home buyers and home sellers. 

Here is the first how-to that addresses the needs of both buyers and sellers, making it the perfect companion to the bestselling The Complete Idiot’s Guide® to Buying and Selling a Home. The buyer will depend on this guide to determine whether a house is worth buying. The seller will need it to determine which repairs are necessary before listing or signing anything. Readers will learn to troubleshoot all areas of a home, including its structure and foundation, windows and doors, plumbing, heating and air conditioning, insulation, electrical systems, and the roof, just to name a few.

In this Pocket Idiot’s Guide®, you get:
•  What to look for when inspecting the electrical system, the roof, and other parts of the home.
•  Simple advice on what to do if the results of your inspections aren’t good.
•  Expert explanation of what you can expect during and after the inspection.
•  Easy ways to tell if a home is worth buying—or if it will need extensive repairs before you put it on the market.
