Download Description
Maverick real estate wisdom from the King of Ready Made Dream Homes, a one-of-a-kind real estate artist Frank McKinney is no ordinary real estate entrepreneur, and the mansions he creates are far from ordinary either. The world's most successful builder of on-spec luxury estate homes, he recently sold a mansion on Palm Beach's exclusive Atlantic coast for a whopping $50 million! And now, at only 41, he is undertaking his most ambitious project to date a magnificent estate he plans to sell for between $100 and $120 million! But McKinney didn't start out at the top; 20 years ago he began his career by purchasing foreclosed fixer-uppers and turning them into $50,000 homes for first-time buyers. From there he worked his way up to the luxurious, oceanfront mansions he builds today. Frank's approach has always been that of a maverick and it works. Now, in Frank McKinney's Maverick Approach to Real Estate Success, McKinney shares his real estate secrets so that every investor has a chance to become the next maverick real estate success story. Whether readers are interested in single-family homes, entry-priced fixer-uppers, million-dollar mansions, or anything in between, McKinney offers the kind of unconventional wisdom they won't learn in any seminar. Using real stories and examples from his own career, McKinney shows investors how he made it to the top and how they can too by becoming a name brand in their community and building their own market rather than following one. Offering real-world insight with a never-say-die attitude, this book shares the proven strategies of a true real estate maverick. Frank McKinney (Delray Beach, FL) is the number one developer and spec creator of ultra-luxurious residential homes in the world. He has been featured on Oprah, CBSs The Early Show, the Travel Channel, CNN, the Discovery Channel, and Paul Harvey's radio show to name a few. He is also the author of the bestselling book Make It BIG!: 49 Secrets for Building a Life of Extreme Success (0-471-44399-9).
