Finance ✦ Penny’s Take
Building Real Estate Riches
Chris Condon · 2004
76/100
👍 Worth It
Written by an actual homebuilding company VP, this one delivers real operational know-how on scouting sites, budgeting, and value-engineering to squeeze more profit from new construction. It's aimed narrowly at home builders and flippers, and the numbers are two decades stale, but the tactical bones are solid.
