In easy-to-understand language, an award-winning real estate columnist offers new or experienced home sellers the latest information on important real estate topics such as mortgages, disclosure forms, foreclosures, and more. Designed to help readers make the best decisions to maximize profits, this guide includes many charts, tables, and checklists.

Whether you'll be using the services of a real estate agent to sell your house or doing it on your own, this book can help. Written by real estate columnist and teacher Edith Lank, The Homeseller's Kit explains in easy-to-understand language how to list your house with or without an agent; price your property; prep and show your house; figure the best financing options and sort through the maze of legal details and paperwork you need to complete the transaction and the closing once the house is sold. A short chapter addresses tax considerations, and all necessary sample contracts and forms are included for the average sale, along with handy tables to figure monthly mortgage payments and the principal balance left on your loan. Too many people have house-selling anxiety or horror stories; read this first and save some aggravation later. -- From The WomanSource Catalog & Review: Tools for Connecting the Community for Women; review by Ilene Rosoff
