Comprehensive Real Estate Overview,
By
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Real Estate Principles: A Value Approach (The Mcgraw-Hill/Irwin Series in Finance, Insurance, and Real Estate) (Hardcover)
Real Estate Principles is an extremely readable, easy to follow introductory text to Real Estate. The book is well laid out with many excellent examples and studded with references to superb websites. The graphics are great and the exhibits well thought out.The 'Time Value' of money section is one of the best I've ever read and will help the novice understand this critical aspect of real estate finance/analysis. The Appraisal chapters thoroughly cover the market, cost and income approaches and the Legal chapters cover the essentials of notes, mortgages and deeds. 'Concept Checks' through out the chapters allow readers to verify their understanding of key points with solutions provided at the end of each chapter. The book is extremely well organized with each chapter beginning with an outline and a list of 'Learning Objectives'. In addition, each chapter ends with a Summary, a listing of Key Terms and Study Questions. 'Career Focus' is another recurring theme featuring side bars tied to the main text that outline different careers tracks available in real estate.

Comprehensive though limited in depth.,
By Superior Gourmet (USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Real Estate Principles: A Value Approach (The Mcgraw-Hill/Irwin Series in Finance, Insurance, and Real Estate) (Hardcover)
Because it covers so much, it can't describe enough for someone to say they've learned the ropes. They'll have to find more specialized books or courses to do that. But still, a great book to introduce you to the full scope of real estate- development, financing, marketing, etc. Also lists many useful websites for further research.
