Amazon.com Review:

This is another of Nolo Press’s outstanding self-help books, this time targeting a specific California audience of people who, with a little footwork and research, can potentially save thousands of dollars by selling their home without a real estate agent, or lowering the cost of an agent by doing much of the work themselves.

Devine is an award-winning professor of real estate at San Francisco State University and a licensed real estate broker with more than 20 years of experience under his belt. Quite simply, California homeowners, following his advice, can save a bundle by selling their own home. This is the fourth updated edition of the book, incorporating the major changes in the California housing market and state and federal laws, and includes all the latest legal forms in a user-friendly guidebook. –Mark A.

Summary: Did what it was supposed to do
Rating: 4

I sold my house in San Francisco without a broker (my first house sale). The buyer actually drew up the sales contract but this book helped me understand who should pay for what fees.

The only thing that this book lacked that could have gotten me in trouble was that it failed to mention a San Francisco-specific report called the 3R report (the City issues it to list all permits that it has issued for the property). Fortunately I had a friend who was a realtor who checked to make sure I had all the forms.

Summary: Want to save a LOT of Money
Rating: 5

I bought and read this book. I was then able to sell my house in San Francisco without using a listing agent, saving $15,250.
Needless to say, this is a book that MORE than pays for itself.

In fact, this is an important book to read even if you decide to use a full service real estate agent and not try to sell it yourself. When dealing with real estate transactions, honesty appears to fall by the wayside. This book will educate you for the pitfalls you will be facing.

Summary: All the Info You Need!
Rating: 5

I had a bought and borrowed a few for-sale-by owner books in order to help me sell my spec houses, but was always very disappointed with how and general and vague they were. This book, however, told me all the info I needed in a very easy-to- follow, step-by-step format. I really feel like I totally understand the process now, thanks to this book. If you follow all the advice and suggestions, you will definitely save thousands on realtor fees.
