Architect Reveals How to Max Out the Value of Your Home
Welcome back to Radical Wealth Plan, hosted by Paul Mark Morris and brought to you by Entrepreneur Media.
In this episode, I sit down with architect John Umbanhowar to uncover how truly intentional design can elevate not just your living space, but the entire value of your real estate investment. We talk about why working with an architect first — not last — can dramatically improve your ROI, and how the smartest investors are using design to unlock hidden potential in their properties. John shares powerful examples of zoning strategies, the psychology behind design choices, and even a few ideas that defy common sense — like why adding a courtyard might yield more return than another bedroom. Whether you're developing, renovating, or simply planning your next move, this conversation will challenge the way you think about space, strategy, and long-term value.
