It explains the main types of real estate - residential, commercial, industrial. Each has its quirks, with its own pricing, investment history and tax considerations.
For example, there is consideration of foreclosed homes. Giving an analysis of the costs of buying this REO from a bank and then fixing it up for resale. The different types of acquisition fees you are likely to encounter are given. Along related lines, there is a study of a personal residence. Should you rent or own this?
