This is a great book to have a available for the beginner real estate agent. This book was essential in assistaing me in passing the Real Estate License Exam the first time. It allowed me access to tons of terms which aren't readily available in other books. Now that i am just getting started in selling real estate it has become a life saver when I run across terms I don't know. Sure, it's not something you would read next to the fireplace, but it's a nice reference to have sitting in the office!

This is a guide that belongs on the shelves of agents, appraisers, investors, and others who are involved in the real estate industry. It covers topics such as the buying and selling processes, how to read appraisal reports, and what type of career options are available in real estate. Probably the most beneficial section is the detailed glossary which takes about half of the book. I am not sure how many people are using mortgage calculation tables, but they are also included. I personally use a financial calculator.

This is an excellent addition to a real estate library as a reference book. Lot's of good information. Updated and well laid out.
