Summary: A good starting point
Comment: I am currently taking the FREC Salesperson I course and this is the book, as you know, we must use. If you are not taking the State Exam, there is no real reason to buy this book unless you just want to educate yourself. Reason being -- the book's goal, like most of it's kind, is for the student/reader to pass the state exam in the end. Hence, there are probably other books out there that convey similar information that aren't booged down with useless details that only exam takers need to know.

Summary: THIS IS THE KEY TO PASSING THE SALESPERSON EXAM
Comment: I was reading a few reviews about this book. The answer keys to the end of chapter and practice question at the end of the book are available through your instructor. Please note that this book alone will not allow you to take the state exam without a 63 hour Pre-lic. Course. For those who don't understand the material and want the answers to the questions in the book should ask their instructors when they take the required pre-lic. Salesperson FREC I course. As far as the text book, the text book material is excellent!

Summary: Authors should take fresh approach to convey material
Comment: The authors know their stuff, but have no idea how to present it in a creative way.
Sadly, this text, in its 22nd edition, is the standard real estate "salesperson" study manual in the state of Florida.
It is far too long and boring. Much more could be conveyed in fewer pages if the authors either undertook an overhaul or let a creative writer edit the copy.
But hasn't this text already been through 22 editions? Yes, but changes only seem to be made to reflect changes in law and not in updating or freshening the overall presentation.
This oversized book is nearly 500 pages long! In my estimation, more could be said in half the space.
As far as the end of chapter and end of book test questions go, they are too simple. The authors review manual, sold under seperate cover, includes many more questions that more closely reflect the standard of difficulty the state uses in its actual exam.
The authors of this text know they have the monopoly on the "salesperson" text book in the state of Florida. Because of this, do they really have an incentive to make it better? No, not unless they want to challenge themselves to improve it.
If the text were better it would most certainly make the practice of real estate in Florida...better.
