This book is a useful, timely and welcome addition to the real
estate literature, and to my library. While recognising that
approaches to investment strategy in real estate are as diverse as
the asset class, the book provides a compelling and accessible case
for a 'top-down' approach that should offer a useful and thought
provoking reference for both students and practitioners.Paul
KennedyThis edition, like the others, is enriched by Baum's years
and breadth of investment experience. The chapters are a lovely mix
of theory and practical experience and the analysis is on the
cutting edge of commercial real estate portfolio management today.
Baum is effusive in thanking his colleagues for their assistance
but I believe that only Andrew Baum could craft a book like this –
a comprehensible piece of scholarship.Raymond Torto, Harvard

I found this new edition of Real Estate Investment not only
provides technical knowledge but also practical examples and case
studies which are extremely relevant and essential to the decision
making process of real estate professionals with a global
prospective . To me, this book is the bible of real estate
investment.
