For me, this book differs from most with this one solid point: it has enough in-depth information to keep me engaged and offers tools, websites, and other books for more information. The Real Estate Revolution covers a LOT of material, but does so in such a way that is not too elementary – like many business books are – without reading like a textbook. This is the first book – business book, textbook, novel, whatever – which I have defaced with so many notes, suggestions to myself, and highlights of items that I need to revisit or research.

Already I have been developing schemes and figuring out partnerships with other business owners to make some of these concepts work. This book will be required reading for our experiment.

This book builds a business case for creating less expensive, higher-quality, and sustainable green buildings that meet the needs of builders and users. It provides a simple model that demonstrates how owners can develop a sustainable building, and reduce their construction costs.

The book illuminates how competent contractors with the best intentions are constrained by inefficiencies of an out-dated process. It gives owners a roadmap to enable the process. Rex Miller presents the case for moving from a paradigm of deciding, designing, and delivering buildings to one of strategic alliances with earlier engagement by key stakeholders that have financial incentive for performance.

Leaders from top companies in the industry present the research and case studies, which prove that this concept can go beyond fixing the process, to transform it. This book is a must-read for anyone who is involved in building construction.
