Introduction to the Homebuyer's Fair
(This page updated March 22, 1995)
Greetings. Our mission is to give homebuyers the information you need to
keep more of your own money when you buy a home!
We have a special offer for Prodigy (tm) users.
What's here?
In addition to the booths listed above, we have a page that explains
How to Exhibit. If you get "lost" and want
to see an index, we have a map of the Fair,
which on some pages is symbolized by a small graphic of a compass.
Finally, we have a section to browse if you
are interested in the subjects of business
and commerce on the Web.
What's not here?
We have no information on commercial real estate, hotels, vacation rentals,
or other real estate that does not pertain to buying and selling homes. Those
would be valuable services for someone to provide, but they are outside of
our scope.

Bug warnings: Winweb's forms interface does not support
"type = Number" which means that our mortgage calculators cannot be used
with that
browser. Versions of NCSA Mosaic prior to 2.06 crash on many of our
online forms. Netscape occasionally fails to display the
fill-in boxes on forms; often when this happens you can get the form to
display properly by hitting the "reload" button. Please report other bugs to our comment form.
