Land Development, Ninth Edition

Rating:
Summary: Pay others to do it for you.
Review: Being in the real estate development business, I thought this book would be interesting and that I might garner a new idea from it. I was terribly disappointed. The book lacks real world concrete examples and does not give enough information to allow a true understanding of the process of development. Perhaps the most annoying part of the book is the constant references to hire consultants for this study, consultants for this other study, etc. If you are going to hire people to do all the work, what is the point to bother learning anything for yourself? This book does not have the content to permit you to learn the development process. I would not recommend this book to anyone.
