Book
My husband ordered this book. He had one a while back and loaned it out, never got it back so we needed a new one for his office use. He uses this book frequently and likes it.
This Book Is A MUST on Every Real Estate Bookshelf

All of the entries are brought into conformity with the 1986 Tax Reform Act. Controversial topics that have resulted from this legislation, such as the IRS definition of a dealer in real estate, are treated well. ... a section containing over 300 abbreviations is a helpful touch."
