Mortgage Confidential by David Reed

Product Description

Author David Reed has done it again! I read his first book, Mortgages 101 and like it so much that I bought this one without any deliberation. I have been reading his column in Realty Times for years, and always enjoyed them.

In a clear, concise, easy to read manner, the author has set forth in simple and easy to understand terms the truth about mortgages and mortgage lending. Everything is explained, such as where mortgage money comes from, to how Annual Percentage Rate is determined to shopping for a loan and (hopefully) avoiding some "junk" fees. Also included is the commonly misunderstood diferrences between a Bank, a Mortgage Bank, and a Mortgage Broker.

All this ads up to a great book to read for the consumer who is shopping for a mortgage loan. Details too numerous to explain here, but you won't regret buying this book, if you are eithar purchasing a home or refinancing. The "confidential" part of the title is the stuff Loan Agents know, and he has made it available to the reader.
