Finance ✦ Penny’s Take 🎧 Audiobook
Building Wealth One House at a Time, Revised and Expanded Third Edition
John Schaub · 2024
🎙 Narrated by Scott R. Pollak
82/100
👍 Worth It
Schaub's nine-step, decade-long plan for buying rental houses debt-free is about as credible and concrete as this genre gets — real-estate columnist Robert Bruss reportedly rated it an off-the-chart '12,' and it shows in the step-by-step detail. Scott Pollak's narration is clean, straightforward nonfiction delivery that gets out of the way of the content. If you're a buy-and-hold single-family investor, this one's genuinely worth the listen.
