Ray Brown, coauthor of the national bestseller Home Buying For Dummies, is a veteran real estate broker with three decades of hands-on experience. A former vice president and manager for Coldwell Banker Residential Brokerage Company and McGuire Real Estate, and founder of his own real estate firm, the Raymond Brown Company, Ray is currently a writer, radio talk show host, and public speaker on residential real estate topics. Ray believes that most people are pretty darn smart. When they have problems, it's usually because they don't know the right questions to ask to get the information they need to make good decisions. This book completes Ray's residential real estate trilogy and fulfills his dream of helping folks find their way through the often mystifying process of buying, financing, and selling their homes. On his way to becoming a real estate guru, Ray worked as the real estate analyst for KGO-TV (ABC's affiliate in San Francisco) and was a syndicated real estate columnist for The San Francisco Examiner. He hosts a weekly radio program, Ray Brown on Real Estate, for KNBR. In addition to his work for ABC, Ray has appeared as a real estate expert on CNN, NBC, CBS, and in The Wall Street Journal and Time. Ray's most important accomplishments, however, remain Jeff and Jared, his incomparable sons, and 39 years of nearly always wedded bliss to the always wonderful Annie B. All three of them make Ray smile with his heart.Tyson, Eric is the author of 'Mortgages for Dummies', published 2004 under ISBN 9780764571923 and ISBN 0764571923.
