Reviews of Current Edition:
"The wide scope of this book makes it suitable for all property students and practitioners as a basic textbook. …it has a strong focus on local [UK] legislations and stakeholders, but their discussion also shows property managers from other countries what to consider and find out in their own national context…The book [also] has a clear, general explanation of CRE and how it should be approached by organisations of all sizes. By its broad approach, the content is relevant for property management of small and large organisations."
