Title: Language of Real Estate, 5E by John Reilly ISBN: 0-7931-3193-6 Publisher: Dearborn Trade Publishing Pub. Date: 10 November, 2000 Format: Paperback Volumes: 1 List Price(USD): $35.69 |
Average Customer Rating: 4 (4 reviews)
Rating: 2
Summary: Excellent book- but I did not like the "bi-lingual" edition
Comment: I have this book - as well as the previous edition (4th edition).
This one came with my real estate class.
It is an excellent and very informative book.
However- many terms in the book have the Spanish word next to it.
Examples:
appraiser (valuador, tasador)
counteroffer (contraoferta)
deed (escritura)
fee simple (pleno dominio)
joint venture (asociacion, en participacion, contrato de asociacion, en participacion)
mortgagor (deudor hipotecario)
.......Etc.........
In the back of the book in Appendix D is a Spanish-English dictionary.
I did not want a bilingual real estate book.
The previous version of this book (4th edition- 1993) did not include this.
I don't know why the author- John W. Reilly- or Dearborn Real Estate- felt it necessary to include Spanish words next to many of the real estate terms.
I want to learn real estate- in English- not in Spanish.
And I felt that to be a huge distraction.
I want to learn real estate terms in ENGLISH- not in Spanish.
I was very disappointed when I saw that.
Maybe the author should publish an English version- and a Spanish version.
I took Spanish in college- and I want to learn REAL ESTATE- not a foreign language.
It is an excellent book - and in my opinion that is it's only flaw.

Summary: Excellent Reference Book
Comment: Whether teaching or working in the real estate field, this a a wonderful reference book for all. This could be helpful for beginners in the field and also for someone that has spent a lifetime in the field.
Rating: 5
Summary: The #1 necessary book for agent or consumer
Comment: As a real estate instructor, this is the book I bring to every classroom, regardless of the topic. It is the ideal suppliment to any real estate instruction. It's clear, concise and to the point. My students are accustomed to hearing, "Let's see what THE BOOK says." As a writer and course developer, it's always there as my reference book of choice. As a consultant, I recommend it to buyers and sellers as their first step in learning the language. This is the all around perfect book for anyone dealing with real estate in any way --- which is just about everybody!
