商品簡介
This textbook outlines the essentials of real estate practice law for paralegal students and paralegals, and covers aspects from property ownership, concurrent ownership, and methods of describing real property, to basic contract law, deeds, and finance, to titles, closings, condos and cooperatives, and leases. Self-study exams appear at the end of each chapter. This edition addresses new Real Estate Settlement Procedures Act rules, including the new HUD-1 form; the recent real estate recession and efforts by the federal and state governments to assist homeowners faced with foreclosure; the roles of various participants in a closing; the use and etiquette of email; and technology and its effects on real estate practice and law. It adds websites to each chapter, new examples, new profiles of paralegals, and a new website with learning tools and an interactive ebook. All forms have been updated, and new ones have been added, including new title insurance forms. The text is a reduced-essential version of the larger Practical Real Estate Law by Hinkel.
