About this listen

In Whatever It Takes, author Stephen G. Schmitz tells the story of how against all odds, he was able to take a contrarian idea, bet big, and realize the American dream. In five short years, he and his team were able to take American Residential Properties from a back-patio start-up idea to a public company listed on the New York Stock Exchange. In just a few years, they turned their dreams into reality. For their customers, they offered single-family rental homes in pleasant neighborhoods. For their investors, they provided a high rate of return with a low level of risk.

Whatever It Takes shares the philosophy behind this unique venture. Find out how Schmitz's passion for his business plan propelled him to success. Discover ways of fostering a culture with team members willing to go all out to pull off an idea that might initially seem unreachable. Whatever It Takes shows you how concepts such as vision, belief, passion, courage, and culture can combine to help you achieve your personal and financial goals, while at the same time knowing that you have helped other people achieve theirs.
