Real Estate Principles with PowerWeb Card (The McGraw-Hill/Irwin Series in Finance, Insurance, and Real Estate)

Real Estate Principles: A Value Approach by David Ling and Wayne Archer is an exciting new entry into the Principles of Real Estate market, presenting a strong focus on valuation. Value is central to virtually all real estate decision-making including whether and how to lease, buy, or mortgage a property acquisition, whether to renovate, refinance, demolish or expand a property, and when and how to divest (sell, trade, or abandon) a property. Ling and Archer’s goal in the theme of this book is to direct students toward an oriented and focused view concerning real estate so that they have a better chance to ask the right questions and seek the right information when faced with the complexities of real world real estate decisions. Real Estate Principles: A Value Approach provides students and instructors with the most modern, engaging and attractive textbook available on the subject. It also offers the best website available, as well as strong in-text Internet content that helps readers use technology to enhance the learning experience.
