Finding and purchasing the right home is a complex task that many people do rarely.

However, few purchase decisions can have a greater impact on your quality of life. We designed and built Home.

Buying for Digerati to help Palm OS consumers get a better handle on the house search and purchase process.

Features include home database, mortgage calculator and a backgrounder on the ins and outs of purchasing a home.

With Home Buying for Digerati on your Palm OS PDA, you'll keep your house search organized, calculate your own monthly mortgage costs and become an informed buyer.

The home database is easy to fill out while you tour prospective houses.

Everything in the database is searched by the Palm OS global find mechanism for easy access by feature.

The mortgage calculator is very easy to use. Just enter the cost of the house, down payment, interest rate and length of the loan and quickly calculate your monthly payments.

Yearly real estate taxes and home owner's insurance can be added as well for a more realistic monthly payment.

The backgrounder is a short book covering all aspects of the purchase process.

Major sections include: finding funding, building your team of professionals, searching for a house, inspecting houses, negotiating price and terms, the closing and reference material for further study.

There is a real estate glossary containing many important terms.
