Stone, an expert on home inspection and real estate disclosure, enables readers to negotiate the best deal on a house, get sellers to handle major repairs before completing the sale, and avoid buying a money pit. He shows home buyers how to protect themselves from undisclosed defects, select a qualified home inspector, avoid conflicts of interest between inspectors and agents, and gain more from home inspection through direct participation. Questions and answers and b&w photos illustrate problems. Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)

Find the dangers are lurking inside your new home. Put "The House Detective" on the Case! 100 per cent of home inspections reveal either a series of defects or safety hazards. And every home inspection can result in a renegotiation of the terms of sale, that is, if homebuyers understand their options. Barry Stone, author of the definitive guide on this issue, "The Consumer Advocate's Guide to Home Inspection", can offer the knowledge you need in order to understand how to benefit from the home inspection process.
