Review
I believe the book would make an excellent text for real estate salespeople, both as a future course and as a reference book. It could also be used for a "seminar" for licensed or certified appraisers. -- Joe Martin, Nationally Certified Real Estate and Appraisal Instructor

I believe the book would make an excellent text for real estate salespeople, both as a future course and as a reference book. It could also be used as a future "seminar" for licensed or certified appraisers.
