* Gives clear understanding of the methods and techniques of valuation * Latest statutes and case law affecting valuation * Core text for students and essential reference for practitioners Despite the volatility in the world’s financial and property markets the principles underpinning valuation methods have remained fundamentally unchanged. In this new edition the sections on methods have been revised and updated to provide a comprehensive coverage of both their principles and their application. More significantly new and amended statutes and case law precedents which have affected various aspects of statutory valuations are included. These changes have been incorporated in the revisions to chapters dealing with Commercial Property, Leasehold Enfranchisement, Rating, Compulsory Purchase and other statutory applications. The 10th edition maintains the aims and objectives of all previous editions: to support students with its comprehensive coverage of the legal, economic and technical aspects of valuation required by most University and College Real Estate Programmes and to provide trainees (APC Candidates) and practitioners with current and relevant guidance on the preparation of valuations for statutory purposes.

Every surveyor, property manager and lawyer who deals with commercial property needs to have a thorough knowledge of Part II of the Landlord and Tenant Act 1954, which governs the rights of business tenants to obtain renewals of their leases. A maze of complex and carefully interlocking provisions, the Act was radically amended by a Regulatory Reform Order as from 1 June 2004. These changes include: •widening the scope of protection •removing traps for tenants such as the counter-notice •changing the rules about court applications •amending the basis of assessing interim rent •imposing tougher requirements for giving information •creating new procedures for contracting out of the Act •a raft of new prescribed forms This new book gives a clear explanation of the workings of the amended Act, keeping the framework in view while delving into the detail whenever needed. The old law is included for those situations where it may still be relevant. Written by a property lawyer assisted by a chartered surveyor and a property litigator, this publication, in addition to setting out the law, gives detailed guidance on practice for surveyors, managers, valuers, expert witnesses and property lawyers.

Or has Sam Kranson finally lost his mind? And more importantly: Will Henry's loving girlfriend Teresa strangle him if he goes on this adventure with Sam?Part horror, part comedy, all madness and suspense, Love & Zombies is a lunatic burn through three days in the life of Henry-days in which he battles to stay alive, and get back to his love without becoming (un)dead. ***"I enjoyed the HELL out of this book! Witty, action-packed, and ridiculously entertaining." -Jeff Strand"LOVE & ZOMBIES is hilarious! A very different voice from Shapiro. This is not your father's zombie story. Or your cousin's. And probably not your girlfriend's, either. She'll know why. Oozing with fun, humor, and a whole lot of undead tongue poking through hole in cheek, LOVE & ZOMBIES is a fresh, delightful spin. Rom-Zom-Shoot-Your-Mom!" -John Palisano" Hilariously depraved and disgusting, thoroughly lewd and mean as hell but not without grace notes of humanity, LOVE & ZOMBIES is a much-needed cattle-prod to the ass of the zombie subgenre." -Scott Bradley, co-author of THE DARK and co-editor of THE BOOK OF LISTS HORROR"Eric Shapiro's Love and Zombies is an all out thrill ride. It's shot through with sex, drugs and rock & roll, but don't let that fool you. Shapiro writes with a street smart sensibility and a deep and abiding empathy for his characters. There's no shortage of zombie stories out there, but this one is in a class by itself. Great, great read!" -Joe McKinney, Bram Stoker Award-winning author of INHERITANCE and DEAD CITY"With Love & Zombies, Eric Shapiro has given us a fast paced, insane and in my opinion, a fun and kick-ass zombie tale that is sure to make any horror fiction fan happy." -Peter Schwotzer, Famous Monsters of Filmland
