Real Estate Rock Czar

Frank McKinney, who left Indiana with $50 in his pocket to seek his fortune in Florida has demonstrably found it. Frank credits acquiring both his tastes for affluence and risk taking from the affluent people to whom he gave tennis lessons.

It’s not a surprise that the “Brady Bunch sized bathroom” is the most expensive room in Acqua Liana the world’s largest and most opulent certified green home currently for sale at $29,000,000. What is surprising is that the home is so energy efficient that it sometimes “gets back at the man” by selling electric power back to the utility company. Acqua Liana incorporates recycled materials, water collection and management systems, solar panels, etc.

When asked what inning of the game the US is in regarding green building, Frank responded “we’re just singing the national anthem”.

For Frank Vitamin M is the motivation which fuels his 3 T’s (Talent, Time & Treasure) which he uses to help others. Frank and his wife build and sell big expensive houses so they can help those less fortunate by building homes in a village-campus setting in Haiti the poorest country in the western hemisphere.
