I'm a real estate investor. 


by Michael Bluejay,

award-winning writer
I've bought and sold several homes so I'm in a good position to explain how to buy a house to first-time home buyers. I'm not a realtor, and I'm not trying to sell you anything. I created this site only to share my knowledge of home-buying with others; I wanted to create the guide that *I* wish I had when I was a rookie home buyer.

(Yes, I do make some money from the ads on the site, but I added them years later only as an afterthought. I really did create this guide just to share.)

Parts of this site are Additional Readings in the official coursework for Finance 101 at the College of Southern Nevada.
"I found Michael Bluejay's site to be insanely helpful for the mechanics of securing a mortgage lender, closing on a house, and estimating the total money needed for a downpayment plus closing costs." — metafilter member

This site contains a lot more than a typical pamphlet or even what you'd learn from most real estate agents. Certainly many people have bought houses without knowing nearly this much . (Including me, when I bought my first home.) We'll cover such things as:

...and lots more. The full list of topics is on the left, and you can step through them one at a time by following the "Next:" link on the bottom of each page.

I believe everything here to be accurate, but of course it's "use at your own risk". And by the way, this guide is written for U.S. buyers; things might be different in other countries.
