The Multilingual Dictionary of Real Estate" is not simply a word-for-word dictionary of specialist and technical terminology. It offers explanations of terms which cannot be translated exactly or are liable to cause confusion. A supplementary section of the dictionary provides detailed notes as well as translations of particularly tricky terms. There are also invaluable sections outlining the real estate and planning systems in the different European countries, government and planning hierarchies and real estate associations throughout Europe.
