Simply how to buy a house?

[Tamara S.]

This may sound silly but I'm looking for a book or guide that explains in a lot of detail  how most people go about buying a house . So far all of the episodes Ive listened to and articles I've read talk about different strategies and ideas for ways to approach investing in real estate . However I am an extreme newbie and I've never bought a house or watched someone go through the process. I would love a detailed look at just what the average American goes through step by step when they buy their home . I've looked at the house buying for dummies books on Amazon  and  some of them have good reviews but they are old... And the newest one did not get great reviews . So I'm wondering if anyone can just recommend a book or a guide that actually explains  the entire process  from start to finish .  Thanks ahead of time  :-)
