In this new, fully revised and updated edition of the book that made her a household name, Glink offers more than 100 pages of new material addressing all of the current trends home buyers need to stay on top of, including:

* The new construction housing boom and how home buyers can make the most of it

* Mortgage lending innovations, such as interest-only financing and the ability to finance 103 percent of the purchase price

* The changing habits of first-time home buyers (purchasing without a broker, using discount Internet-based services, and buying first homes as investments)

* The latest information on asbestos, mold, radon, and other bio-environmental hazards and new, inexpensive testing methods any home buyer can use

In this third edition of 100 Questions Every First-Time Home Buyer Should Ask, Glink presents new stories of real people who have gone through the home-buying process for the first time and once again offers her trademark friendly advice on how to avoid common home-buyer mistakes.
