This book was released on 2005-08 with total page 258 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This exciting new book is in Oversized Manual book format. It contains information not found in any business paperback book (to date) except in real estate courses costing hundreds of dollars. For the first time, this type of "inside information" of "subject to" mortgage transactions are being provided to the general public in a professional and realistic way. This book does NOT cater to the "no money down" or "no credit" audience despite the fact that using the "subject to" mortgage financing technique requires no credit. This book is NOT recommended for the beginning investor as the demands for doing "subject to" mortgage transactions require a greater degree of prerequisite knowledge and experience. This book is for the intermediate investor who wishes to expand their financing possibilities in building their own property portfolio. Accompanying the book are supplementary reading material and accompanying support website.

It covers everything from properly executing a living room floor plan to setting a formal table; from choosing HEPA filters to sealing soapstone countertops; from organizing your home office to polishing your silver and caring for family heirlooms. Martha Stewart’ s Homekeeping Handbook is organized for clarity and maximum practicality: Room by Room covers the upkeep of the appliances, tools, furnishings, and surfaces found in each room, from the entryway to the kitchen, from the attic to the laundry room. Throughout the House instructs the reader on the proper ways to routinely clean and periodically maintain everything in the home, including dusting, sweeping, vacuuming, polishing, scrubbing, waxing and much more. Comfort and Safety focuses on techniques to ensure your home is running properly and safely, such as recognizing when to clean vents, fixing a leaky faucet, and eradicating pests. A-to-Z Materials Guide provides an invaluable resource that explains the unusual materials that many favorite objects are made of–from abalone to zinc–and how to care for them so they last. Encyclopedic yet friendly, Martha Stewart’s Homekeeping Handbook is a seminal work–a must-have for everyone who wants a well-cared-for home that will endure for generations.
