Welcome Note
Of all the items that you will purchase in your life,
the two most important, and costly‫ و‬are housing and
education. The costs for both are very high, but the
returns on good informed choices are also high. Our
housing course deals with both of these most
important issues: education and shelter. It is hoped
that you will refine your
learning skills in the process of increasing your
awareness of the multitude of housing choices and
issues throughout the course of this learning experience
