All of our lives, we have been taught that owning a home was part of the American dream.
Recently, millions of people have found that home ownership can turn into a nightmare.
Many home owners have found themselves "house poor" as a result of upside down
mortgages, unexpected maintenance expenses, and taxes. Sometimes having the dream
and not counting the cost of home ownership will bankrupt you, fi nancially, physically, and
emotionally. Toni Harris takes an honest look on how owning a home became a prerequisite
for success in America; how in this present day economy you may want to look at your
options before you dive into a 30-year mortgage and how renting may be a more cost
effective means for you in the 21st century.
Topics covered in the book include:
Toni's Personal Home Ownership Nightmare
The History of Home Ownership
The Psychology of Home Ownership
The Real Cost of Home Ownership
Understanding Mortgages
Viable Solutions for Today's Potential Home Owner
