Reseña del libro "Principles of Real Estate Practice in Louisiana (en Inglés)"
Performance Programs Company's Principles of Real Estate Practice in Louisiana is the state's complete prelicense text, covering the national and Louisiana law, principles, and practices necessary for basic competence as a real estate professional and as mandated by Louisiana license law. It is based on our highly successful and popular national publication, Principles of Real Estate Practice, which is in use in real estate schools nationwide. Louisiana is the only state whose property and contract law comes from the civil law tradition rather than the English common law, and this text teaches it that way. Its Louisiana chapters cover immovables and servitudes, usufruct, community property, successions and forced heirship, acquisitive prescription, the authentic act, redhibition, and the Louisiana closing, all in the vocabulary students will meet on the state exam and in practice. A dedicated Louisiana Civil Law Glossary defines more than 70 civil law terms that have no exact counterpart in the national material. The text is tailored to the needs of the pre-license student. It is designed to - make it easy for students to learn the material and pass their real estate exam - prepare students for numerous career applications - stress practical, rather than theoretical, skills and knowledge Principles of Real Estate Practice in Louisiana is streamlined, direct and to-the-point.
