After debating whether to buy this book or Glannon's I bought both. Even after glancing over both of them I can't tell which is generally better. They are formatted differently. Glannon's book is written in an outline format, which would probably make it easier to study straight from if you are running low on time. But I often found myself coming to Sprankling's book whenever I had a hard time understanding a concept. In my opinion, Sprankling has a better way of explaining concepts and is a more enjoyable read. This book is definitely tied for first place when it comes to Property supplements. Either buy this book... or buy Glannon's... or buy both!

I am a huge fan of the Lexis understanding series in general and this book is no exception - they were recommended to me by someone who blew away the competition first year and I aimed to follow suit. Read this book along with your casebook, don't take notes on it, just read it as if reading a novel. It has some great diagrams and is very well organized. I read it cover to cover and referred back to it when outlining.

This book is a MUST HAVE for 1L's studying Property law. I used it for everything but Future Interests. Everything it covers is great. Super clear easy-to-understand explanations that will make you angry law schools don't use supplements like this as textbooks. Like the reviewer above, there were many aspects of Property I didn't understand going into finals' week. This cleared up every one; from Covenants and Equitable Servitudes to Takings and Deeds, you name it. and you will understand it after reading this book. What Dressler's is to Criminal Law, this is to Property.

I have not used any other Hornbook or Outline, so I cannot compare this book to any others. However, I did not know what was going on at all in Property up until 2 weeks before the final when I opened this book. Everything from Defeasable estates to Equitable servitudes and Takings suddenly made much more sense. It tracks pretty well with the Dukemeier case book as well. I would highly recommend it. It is much better at explaining things then the case book in general, and will help you even understand the Rule against Perpetuities!
