The Second Homeowner’s Handbook: A Complete Guide for Vacation, Income, Retirement, And Investment

The Second Homeowner’s Handbook: A Complete Guide for Vacation, Income, Retirement, And Investment According to a study released by the National Association of Realtors, second homes accounted for more than a third of residential real estate transactions in 2004. There is no better time than now to buy that second home you?ve been thinking about for getaways, vacations, investment, or retirement. Low interest rates, tax savings, rising appreciation, and effortless financing make it simple to profit from a second home. Now is the time for that second home, before the prices climb even higher. Recent figures from the National Association of Realtors show an upward trend in the number of second homes purchased for investment purposes. Investing in a second home now will be a great way to increase your net worth when you retire, if done properly. This book explains how to invest profitably in a vacation or future retirement home. Your second home can be for living, to re-sell, or even rent. This comprehensive guide presents proven tactics to make your second home a smooth and profitable transaction. You will learn precisely what to look for in a real estate investment, buying prospects, how to rent the place for up to 14 days and pocket the income tax-free, and how to make your current home groundwork for potential real estate investments, how to find the best opportunities, negotiating, financing, budgets, needs and wants, credit reports, home-buying timeline, the process of building a house, manufactured homes, real estate and mortgage glossaries, setting values, home warranties, homeowners insurance, creative financing, buying with little or no money down, closing, moving plans, walk-throughs, closing and settlement inspections, legal contracts, mortgages, what you can afford, deciding which neighborhood to choose, hiring a realtor, which government agencies can help, considerations for veterans, IRA use, hiring an attorney, the offer, calculating monthly payments, and escrow. This book is a must-have for the investor considering a second home.
Customer Review: The Second Homeowner’s Handbook: A Complete Guide for Vacation, Retirement, and Investment by Jeff Haden
I find that the author has a genuine interest in his Reader’s understanding the Real Estate area in general terms as well as provoking them to analyze whether they can afford to invest in property whether vacation, retirement or investment properties.

I felt that the goal of the author was to help Readers make better choices in Real Estate investments from a personal and business perspective. The Second Homeowners Handbook provided step by step guidelines and references on identifying property to invest, choosing the right location, analyzing the market, and goal setting.

While there are many Real Estate investment books on the market, you can not find a book that provide actual details on how to maximize property values by eliminating clutter or steps to improve basic appearance of the property to ultimately generate quick profits. This is a book that you can not resist and is a good buy for those interested in second homeownership.

Customer Review: What to look for, how to rent, how to handle income taxes and financing, and more.
If you’re thinking of building a retirement nest egg on real estate, then Jeff Haden’s THE SECOND HOMEOWNER’S HANDBOOK: A COMPLETE GUIDE FOR VACATION, RETIREMENT, AND INVESTMENT is for you. Here’s a set of keys on how to use a second home to fuel both present vacations and future retirement, whether you’ve bought for resell, rent, or personal use. Chapters tell what to look for, how to rent, how to handle income taxes and financing, and more.

Social Security, Medicare and Pensions: Get the Most Out of Your Retirement and Medical Benefits (6th ed)

Social Security, Medicare and Pensions: Get the Most Out of Your Retirement and Medical Benefits (6th ed) Everyone wants to get the most out of their retirement benefits — not to mention the best medical coverage.

Social Security, Medicare & Government Pensions clearly explains what the different benefits are, and shows you how to claim what you’ve earned, including:

* Social Security retirement and disability benefits

* Supplemental Security Income

* government penisons & 401(k)s

* Medicare and Medicaid

* new medical insurance options

* dependents and survivor benefits

* veterans benefits

* and more

Completely updated to provide the latest information and changes in benefits, this plain-English book is a must-have for anyone who is retired or about to be.
Customer Review: Adequate & Annoying
The authors’ explanation of the workings of the Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid, etc systems is adequate but is not particularly well written and often lacks clarity. This is certainly not one of NOLO’s best offerings.

Especially annoying was the authors’ frequent and tedious editorializing. I suspect most readers of this book want the facts, not the authors’ socialistic, simplistic opinions.
Customer Review: Significant error in VA section
page 10/7: “E. Medical Treatment….And dependents and survisors of a veteran who has a service connected disabilities, or who receives a veterans pension, are entitled to care in VA facilities if they are unable to afford private care.”

I have been a VA employee for 16 years. The above is WRONG. There IS a pilot program in a handful of VA hospitals allowing dependents to use the VA hospital. Otherwise, this is NOT the case.

…”The VA can also pay for long-term care of an elderly or disabled veteran in a private nursing facility if there is no space in a VA facility.”

This is also not entirely correct. The operative would is CAN. However, the VA is only obligated to pay for the care of veterans who have a certain percentage of Service-Connected Disability. If they pay at all for any others, most VA’s only pay for care for a VERY limited period of time.

Health Insurance Coverage in Retirement: The Erosion of Retiree Income Security

Health Insurance Coverage in Retirement: The Erosion of Retiree Income Security At a time when adequate, affordable, health insurance for retirees is being threatened by rising costs, Health Insurance Coverage in Retirement: The Erosion of Retiree Income Security examines new data on medical coverage in retirement and raises serious concerns about the future retirement security of the elderly and near-elderly. Specifically, declining access to employer-sponsored health insurance and prescription drug coverage in retirement may be affecting the retirement decisions of the older workforce.

The Tools & Techniques of Employee Benefit and Retirement Planning (Tools and Techniques of Employee Benefit and Retirement Planning)

The Tools & Techniques of Employee Benefit and Retirement Planning (Tools and Techniques of Employee Benefit and Retirement Planning) Customer Review: Worse than the Worst PowerPoint Presentation
If ever you’ve sat through a presentation in which the speaker followed a PowerPoint template and asked yourself, “Could anything be worse than this?”, this book is the answer and the answer is “Yes, much worse!”
Stephan Leimberg may know something about employee-benefit and retirement planning but his writing skills might best be used to torture prisoners at Abu Ghraib.
For chapter after chapter, he follows the same deadly template: “What is it?, When is it indicated?, Advantage, Disadvantages, Design Features.” For paragraph after paragraph, he follows the same hackneyed formula: Bland, meaningless string- I can’t say sentence; so I have to resort to computer language to describe the assemblages of words he puts between periods- followed by another string that begins with “however”, “although”, or “but.” Apparently he didn’t write this book; he word processed it. Having conjured up an incoherent notion, he characteristically begins the next sentence with something along the lines of “This can often….” What the “this” refers to, not even he could figure out. As if all these travesties were not awful enough, he greatly prefers the passive over the active voice.
Besides being useful in the war on terror, the book might serve well for beginning courses on “How to Edit Pitiful Writing.” Almost every sentence contains at least one example of how not to write.
Well, now I’ve told the truth and feel guilty for trashing the book and its author. Is there something nice I can say about Stephan Leimberg? The nicest thing I can think of to say is this: Maybe he didn’t actually write the book.

Customer Review: Not for average consumer
I do not recommend this book as a main source of information for the average reader. It is informational, but probably incomplete and not useful in deciding which plan to implement. It is used as a supplement (not even the main textbook) in an advanced Certified Financial Planning (CFP) course. Students in this course already have proven knowledge of key concepts regarding taxes, investments, risk management-insurance, etc. This is tough education/training that is being undertaken by people who’s main job is (will be) to advise on these subjects.
