North Carolina Real Estate Law [Paperback]

Neal R. Bevans (Author)

Book Description

ISBN-10: 0890893837 | ISBN-13: 978-0890893838 | Publication Date: March 31, 2005

This book is designed as a text book covering the major issues of real estate law. Designed with both the student and practitioner in mind, the text strikes a balance between theory and practice. The author develops the foundation of North Carolina real property law and then puts theory into practice by describing numerous practical applications, from creating offer of purchase contracts to title searches. Although there are real estate texts available that comcentrate exclusively on North Carolina law, they fall into two camps: theory or practice. This text balances the competing needs of students and practitioners by addressing both concerns. The text explains the theoretical bases of real property law in North Carolina and then provides practical, hands-on examples of how to apply this theoretical knowledge. For this new edition, Bevans updated and revised information throughout the text.

4.0 out of 5 stars Awesome Book for the Real Estate Lawyer, October 9, 2005

I just passed the North Carolina Bar Exam and recently begin full time work as licensed attorney! Immediately, I was thrown in to the real estate mix and had to learn real estate law really really quickly. I wish I had this book on day one!

The format is awesome. Instead of being an academic, theoretical book, it is very practical. Designed for a new lawyer or a student, the book pinpoints the essentials of practicing real estate law. The book even comes with checklists and sample documents.

This book is a must have for any real estate attorney in a small firm or just beginning. I definitely recommend it.

I used this as a textbook during my real estate law class. It's not bad; you'll get a pretty good understanding of real estate law in general. However, when I went to work as a real estate paralegal, I realized that this book only taught theory -- I had NO IDEA how to actually do my job. But I did have a general understanding of the business and the "whys" of everything. So if you are interested in NC real estate law, this is pretty good.

To get an even better understanding of the business, I would get my hands on any kind of rule/guideline book that the underwriters at the title companies use.
