Financial, Legal and Economic Fundamentals of Real Estate

The anthology Financial, Legal and Economic Fundamentals of Real Estate teaches students the financial, legal, and economic principles of real estate, and addresses real estate's inherently social/institutional nature. Beginning with an examination of real estate in history and society, the book presents detailed, well-written readings on cities and urban economics, residential development, commercial real estate, large scale retail, and the role of real estate in local economies and public policy agendas. Covering all aspects of real estate, from its role in family relationships to the involvement of major financial institutions, Financial, Legal and Economic Fundamentals of Real Estate is ideal for upper division finance courses in commercial or residential real estate.
