In this book candidates for SQE1 will find an accessible, clear, and concise overview of Property Practice and will be able to develop their knowledge and understanding of the subject.
The text is split into three parts: the first is an overview of core knowledge areas of freehold real estate law and practice and the second explores core knowledge areas of leasehold real estate law and practice. The final section covers property taxation. The guide gives students the opportunity to test their functioning legal knowledge and apply relevant legal principles appropriately to SQE-style problem scenarios.
