Description

Before you take on the largest debt you'll ever have, you should have more - and better - information than you've ever had before. Whether you are a novice or an expert real estate investor this book provides the information you need to finally understand what lending channel, what loan product, and what price point truly fits your need. If you are an engineer looking to dig deeply into the nuts and bolts of how this works you will love the tools and analyses in this book. If you are more interested in just drilling in and getting quick answers, this book is an excellent reference guide with easy-to-find, high quality advice. In order to get the best mortgage possible you need to do five things very well: 1 - Decide whether you should even get a loan in the first place 2 - Choose the best lending channel for your needs 3 - Choose the best loan program for your needs 4 - Choose the best price point for your specific plans 5 - Lock your interest rate at the right time The Loan Guide provides a complete guide to doing all these things well. Finally, The Loan Guide covers how to manage your mortgage in order to keep as much money in your pocket over the course of your lifetime, how to interpret and avoid common marketing gimmicks, and how to use the Excel-based analytical tools used in examples throughout the book. Since 2008 all the rules of lending have changed. The Loan Guide, published in 2014, was written between 2008 and 2014 and updated as it was being written, to reflect the most current rules and guidelines possible. The Loan Guide is current, clear and complete, and you will find it answers exactly the questions you have, and many that you should have but don't know it. Read more

    • im an investor and this is awesome book written by a loan officer
Format: Paperback
This book is AMAZING and relevant today. The author is a loan officer who has lived, worked and breathed the industry. His customers are typically Silicon Valley engineers who ask detailed questions and want deeper insights to select the best options. That's me - so I was super happy to have come across this book! He spells out the fundamentals of loans and all the different types offered and gives you his reasoning and calculations behind what might make one loan option a better choice than another. You can tell he approaches loans in a non-biased way and he really wants to equip you with the tools so that you can consider the best loan option for you. So if you are an engineer, or someone who really wants to understand how to calculate the numbers as well as the big picture behind how loans work and the general landscape of the industry, this is the book to read. As an investor, this was a goldmine of a book to come across that will have lasting value to all the properties I purchase now and in the future. Thank you Casey!!! ... show more

Lots of great info for just about everything mortgage-related. Not everything was applicable to my situation, but I know where I can turn to when my situation changes.

    • Excellent
Format: Paperback
Really good information, with a wonderful personal "voice" that helps the reader really enter the industry and feel like you are being individually guided. For instance, when describing different options, the author lays out clearly the pros and cons, so that you can tell if it's an option that meets your circumstances or not. It's rare to have a warm voice in this kind of topic, and it's really helpful. ... show more

    • Exactly what I was looking for
Format: Paperback
We're preparing to buy our first home. I'm the kind of person that likes to be as informed as possible when starting a new endeavor, especially when hundreds of thousands of dollars are at stake. I read three or four different books on mortgage finance prior to encountering The Loan Guide, and I can say without a doubt that it was the best of the bunch. I particularly like how Mr. Fleming explained the pros and cons of different financing options for different personal circumstances, and the section of the book (Chapter 20) where he goes into great detail about how to evaluate and review loan documents. I will continue to come back to this as a reference as we begin the pre-approval and application process. ... show more

    • Looking for a Home Loan?
Format: Paperback
Mr. Flemings writes in an manner that is understandable.. I am a Mortgage Broker of over twenty years and I would highly recommend this book for anyone who is thinking about making a purchase or a refinance. I personally dug deep into the chapter on buying investment property. This is something we can use for the next investment property we purchase. Twenty two chapters filled with detailed and well written information. ... show more

    • finally, a book written by an actual loan officer
Format: Paperback
there's other books out there on the topic of home financing, but typically they are written by someone at the top of an organization, or someone who is retired, and disconnected from the reality of what is actually occurring in the real world. this book, however, is written by an actual loan officer with i think more than 20 years in the industry. the book does a good job exploring all facets of home financing, whether you're a first time homebuyer or refinancing for the 20th time. this is a great gift for someone who may be thinking about buying a home (for example, my parents got it for me) or even for someone who just needs a refresher on all the mechanics of home financing. frankly, if everyone had read this book before getting a home loan before the meltdown in 2007/2008, we likely would have avoided some, if not all, of the great recession. ... show more

    • Plain and simple information for home buyers
Format: Paperback
I think buying a home and getting a loan is pretty overwhelming for most people. It was for me and I'm a Realtor. Mr. Fleming's book is a clear and easy to follow approach to the different loan products out there. One of the most interesting things I hadn't considered was the overall cost of the loan over the life of it. Mr. Fleming talks about all of the different loans and how the decisions you make can affect you for years. Good book and I'll be suggesting it to my clients. Read it now before you buy your next home. ... show more
