Cant tell you the amount of times I have referred to this book in my dealings. Invaluable information in there!

Commercial Real Estate 1013
Good introduction for a novice. Not a must if you have any business background.

This Book Will Make you Money !!!5
This is a great book on the practical side of "What to Do" and "How to Do It" to make money in commercial real estate.

A lot of books give you a lot of technical definitions and rules, but this book shows you the steps to follow to make things happen in your career.

I keep my under-lined and highlighted copy on my desk for constant review.

Great book, Buy it and make money!
