1) Paperback Book The Complete Idiot's Guide to Buying Foreclosures, 2nd Edition (Complete Idiot's Guide to) by Alpha. The Complete Idiot´s Guide to Buying Foreclosures seems to contain a lot of revelant information. Unfortunately, the English grammar in the book is so bad, it renders the book largely unintelligible. The book was obviously rushed to press, and did not undergo an editorial review. For example, streams of thought are dropped midway and left incomplete, and contradictory statements are made, leaving the reader confused. The first chapter explains the difference between Judicial and Non-Judicial foreclosures, seeming to link the difference directly to whether or not the foreclosure is a strict foreclosure. But then looking at the two tables in chapter 1, there appears to be an apparent discrepancy in the state of Michigan between judicial/nonjudicial and strict foreclosure. So this Michigan resident has no clue what to conclude from the first chapter´s ramblings.
Another example is the author´s interspersal of definitions in separate text boxes. Often these definitions assume the reader has a basic understanding of the concept, leaving a ´complete idiot´ on the topic unenlightened. Bad grammar (verb tenses, mismatches between singular/plural, etc.) also hinder the reader´s comprehension of these definitions.
I´ve only read through the first couple of chapters, and scanned the rest of the book quickly, and it is clear that this book is evidence that books should not be written by people who don´t have a command of English grammar.
In summary, no matter how good the information contained in a book, it can be rendered uncomprehensible by bad grammar. The Complete Idiot´s Guide to Buying Foreclosures is such a book.¤ 2) Paperback Book The Complete Idiot's Guide to Buying Foreclosures, 2nd Edition (Complete Idiot's Guide to) by Alpha.

For a newbie, this is an excellent introduction. It shows you the way to proceed, if you´re serious about trying. For the price, it is a bargin and should be kept as a reference. If you´re like me, a yellow lighter can be quite helpfull. Well worth the price when you consider the large sums of money that can be involved.¤ 3) Paperback Book The Complete Idiot's Guide to Buying Foreclosures, 2nd Edition (Complete Idiot's Guide to) by Alpha. This is a very informative book. It doesn´t mess around with a lot of fluff. I highly recomend it!¤ 4) Paperback Book The Complete Idiot's Guide to Buying Foreclosures, 2nd Edition (Complete Idiot's Guide to) by Alpha. I´ve always enjoyed the Complete Idiot Guide series. Why? Because it delivers the message down to earth. It takes highly complexed legal matters and shows you step by step on how to invest in foreclosures. If you want to make money in foreclosures or have wanted to invest in them, you need to read this book.

This invaluable guide explains everything readers need to know about finding and financing foreclosed and soon-to-be foreclosed residential properties with the highest potential return. Completely updated, this new edition reflects recent changes in the way banks and the government dispose of foreclosed properties, covers new laws, and advises how to steer clear of scams. • First edition sold more than 30,000 copies in a year and a half • The national residential foreclosure rate rose to from .75% to 1.16% (of all mortgages) by the end of 2006—the biggest jump in 30 years • Foreclosures are expected to continue to increase as interest rates rise and monthly payments on short-term variable rate and interest-only loans make homes unaffordable ¤ Page Updated: Robert N.
