Real estate practice and Alabama licensing, organized for study

Stephen Mettling’s fourth edition combines foundational real estate subjects with Alabama-specific regulation. Its coverage spans property rights, ownership, contracts, agency, brokerage, finance, taxation, appraising, and property management, then addresses Alabama licensing, brokerage rules, agency, and license-law violations. Chapter learning reinforcements, examples, and exercises support a pre-license course, while the glossary and index provide reference points across the material. The book also includes practical topics such as real estate mathematics, closings, and risk management, giving the subject a broad professional-practice scope alongside its law and exam-preparation focus.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Alabama pre-license students seeking a structured course text
  • Learners reviewing real estate law, practice, and licensing topics
  • Readers wanting a reference spanning general real estate principles and Alabama regulation

Book overview

Performance Programs Company's Principles of Real Estate Practice in Alabama contains the essentials of the national and Alabama real estate law, principles, and practices necessary for basic competence as a real estate professional and as mandated by Alabama 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.

 

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 Alabama is streamlined, direct and to-the-point. It includes multiple learning reinforcements. It has a student-oriented organization, both within each chapter and from chapter to chapter. Its examples and exercises are grounded in the authors' many years in real estate education.
