This concise little manual is filled with solid useful information. It contains specific tips and how-to instructions to help the "new" or any homeowner or tenant to make the most of time and money. The author's approachable and reassuring style sets a light-hearted tone which will help to ease the fears of any first-timer, yet serves to be great advice for anyone just settling into their "new space." It will be especially helpful for anyone who would reject a thick and ponderous how-to homeowner's manual.
