5 out of 5 stars Excellent Book! I encourage you to buy this!!!!   June 18, 2005

With A LOT of studying and praying, I passed my California Real Estate Salesperson exam the first time. I am celebrating!! I am so thankful for this book, as Dr. Yoegel lays out each segment of the real estate industry very carefully and very clearly.

After I passed my Real Estate principles course, I still felt unsure about the many complicated aspects of the property law, financing, and other practices. I took every suggestion Dr. Yoegel had, including making 3x5 flash cards of EVERY TERM within his book. I went to the local library and used a private study room to even read his chapters out loud to myself and to write the definitions and solutions on the dry erase boards. Suddenly, I felt empowered with understanding. I tell you, this is an excellent reference, especially when used after your principles class. GO FOR IT!!!!!

This book is chocked full of info that you need. The chapters are laid out and explained really well. It helps you to understand the lessons that your going to school for alittle better by the way it explains them differently (especially the math!!!)

This book is awesome!! Not only did I pass my test, but I gained so much real estate knowledge from this book that I was able to impress the management at Mansion Realty Group, and work as an agent immediately for them. I am now a top grossing agent with one of the best real estate firms in the city thanks in large part to this book!!

If you're studying for a Real Estate Salesperson exam, this book will definitely help get you ready. While I also purchased another test prep book that focused specifically on my state (Texas), this book was equally and sometimes more valuable. Some of the explanations provided just the "tweak" that helped in comprehension. OBTW - I passed both the national and state by a large margin. :-)
