Since the previous edition, the Housing Act 1996 has come into force and the application of this Act, which may not have been entirely successful in its aim of simplifying the law, is closely considered here. The radical procedural changes, resulting from both the CPR and provisions specific to possession cases are covered in detail. This edition contains a new chapter on the landlords statutory obligations during the tenancy. This concentrates on matters that are of tremendous practical importance particularly to landlords, such as the Gas Safety Regulations and the Furniture and Fittings Regulations, yet which are overlooked by most works in this field. The enlarged section on Housing Benefit also reflects the authors belief that this book should primarily be a tool for use in the real world rather than a learned treatise.

Previously known as Estate Management Practice, the fourth edition of this work has been renamed to reflect current market practice and to embrace the discipline of corporate real estate. This book provides a comprehensive study of the management of urban property and is divided into three parts. Part one considers the diverse nature of the many types of estates and different aspects and interpretations of the management task. Part two concentrates on the management of leased property, repairs, service charges and rent reviews and the statutory framework within which the landlord and tenant relationship has developed. Part three is concerned with the positive management covering both technical skills, such as portfolio performance, and the professional practice environment in which they are exercised. Stapleton’s Real Estate Management Practice is written both for advanced students and practitioners. It provides a firm basis for management affecting the decision-making hierarchy from tenant to property, to portfolio, to proprietary unit. While retaining the format of previous editions, it has been updated to reflect the many changes in the law, practice, technology and the market place since the previous edition. In addition, this new edition highlights factors that influence the enhancement of different types of property and the various strategies involved in managing properties from both owners’ and occupiers’ point of view.
