2.0 out of 5 stars
Far to simplistic an approach to contracting,
By A Customer
This review is from: Construction Forms and Contracts (Paperback)
Although this book is the most readily available book containing standard boiler-plate contracts, most of the forms just do not have what it takes. In today's litigious climate it is necessary to spell out every detail, possible eventuality, and its remedy in a construction contract. If that is what you are looking for then don't buy this one. These contracts are about as simplistic and remedial as something that you would come up with yourself after about thirty seconds thought, and that's it. If you want a good, thorough exhaustive contract (like I do) keep looking. Sorry Craig and Karen, but look at a real estate contract used by your local board of realtors. That is what you need to strive for in your contracts; all of the lawsuits against contractors attest to it.

NOT FOR THE HOMEOWNER,
By Ryan Robinson (Ohio,USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Construction Forms and Contracts (Paperback)
I purchased this book to help build my house. I am the general contactor for the job and I thought I would be able to find some form for the sub contractors to sign. This was not the case and it really wasn't any help to me at all. It might help someone who is starting their own business but not for someone building their own house.

Basic Forms that are just plain Dumb!!!,
By File9 "zod7of9" (planet earth) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Construction Forms and Contracts (Paperback)
One reviewer wrote that the form's are simplistic, he was nice they are useless, I thought i would take a look at the book myself, thinking that maybe i could edit and revise some of the forms in order to better suit my needs. Not a chance, these things are worthless and you can find the same type of forms floating all over the net - google for free.. It's hard to believe that there are some place's selling this book for it's cover price around $50 or so. Even with Amazon's great price this book was returned!
