Purchasing a home is a top priority in the lives of urban residents, but in recent years, a large number of real estate disputes have frequently appeared in the media, with even violent incidents occurring occasionally. This has made many potential homebuyers hesitant to proceed, even if they do, they do so with great caution, fearing being cheated. Upon deeper examination, the reasons for this phenomenon include inadequate regulatory mechanisms, low credibility of developers, and a lack of legal awareness among buyers. Fortunately, government authorities are gradually strengthening their oversight of real estate development, improving monitoring measures, and many developers have embraced the idea of enhancing their credibility, gradually forming a brand effect. However, raising the legal awareness of buyers still takes time. As a professional real estate lawyer, the author has been engaged in the practice and research of real estate law for many years, deeply understanding its complexity and often seeking guidance from others in the field under the guise of being a student. Due to this experience, the author often empathizes with the difficulties faced by homebuyers and, in May 2000, created a real estate law self-help website to provide buyers with legal information and consultations. However, due to limited resources, the website was forced to close in May 2002. After the website closed, at the request of numerous clients and driven by a sense of responsibility as a legal professional, the author diligently wrote this book, compiling the laws involved in home buying and years of personal experience. To facilitate understanding and practical use, the book is structured according to the home-buying process, avoiding technical terms and legal statutes. It explains how to sign a property purchase contract and option agreement, how to apply for a housing loan, how to receive the property and handle disputes, and how to buy a second-hand home.
