Summary: Great Text Book for Real Estate
Comment: Keep in mind, this is a text book. Not a ,"How To Get Rich in Real Estate", technique. Having graduated from Purdue Cal with an electrical engineering degree, I read text books for enjoyment as often as any other type of book.

This is a great one. I took a real estate class in Chicago that used this book in their six day crash course in which we went through it cover to cover. I was able to subsequently pass my RE exam and recieve my salesperson license.

If you have a mathematical background, you will find the methods of solving math problems in this book to be a little on the childish side. They assume virtually no knowledge of algebra or applied math solving skills. But this is a plus for people who have a fear of applied math problems.

The information in this book about the 'nuts and bolts' of the real estate profession is right on the mark. It is easy to read and the questions at the end of each chapter are at times challenging but solvable by using the information presented in the book.

I truly enjoyed reading this text. I have often browsed through this book since recieving my license in 2006.

Volumes have been written on the topics of each chapter. This book is an overview. However, I don't think it's an exaggeration to say that if you know this book inside and out, you'll be on par with most practicing real estate agents in the field.

Summary: Modern Real Estate Practices
Comment: After giving up my RE license a couple of years ago, I decided to try and get it back. This is a great book, with lots of information that you both need to know and things that are just plain fun to know. I read the book and used the accompanying CD, tested, and passed on the first try. I'm not sure I could have done it without such a comprehensive book. Highly recommended (but be sure and ask which book, and which version of the book, that local instructors use to teach RE principles and practices before purchasing)

Summary: Best study tool used.

Customer Rating:

Summary: Good Study Aid
Comment: Using this reference guide along with the materials supplied in my real estate class I was able to pass the examination for the real estate sales person license on the first attempt.

I did not give it 5 stars because the CD with sample exam questions that comes with the book is not compatible with MACS - something you don't find out until after you buy it!

Customer Rating:

Summary: Clear, concise and incredibly useful
Comment: I am a FSBO/investor looking to gain a better understanding of the specific issues. The book provided a practical, no-nonsense approach. A real estate agent friend of mine recommended it since he used it in his pre-licensing class. Nice job!
