| Selling someone an office building can be much different than selling them a home. "A Field Guide to Commercial Real Estate Investment" is a guide for those who wish to get in the less-traveled game of real estate in commercial areas. McComb brings his quarter of a century of real estate knowledge to the table as he speaks on the various ins and outs in this business in terms simple enough to understand to anyone new to all real estate concepts. "A Field Guide to Commercial Real Estate Investment" is the introduction one needs to get into the game. | | | | Clear, and concise with good examples Jul 2, 2008 |
This is a great overview of commercial real estate investment. It's clear, easy to read, and easy to understand. It's also a fast read, compared to some of the tomes I've seen in this field. The examples coupled with the financial worksheets were a big help in understanding some concepts (cap rates, return on investment, etc.) that have confused me in the past. I also really appreciate the detailed information on figuring the maximum loan amount available for a property and calculating the amount of cash needed for the investment.
There was a real, practical feel about this book, which I appreciated.
