As one of Canada’s most respected real-estate investors and owner of the The Real Estate Centre, a rapidly expanding Coldwell Banker brokerage in Ontario, Artenosi believes now is the time to reveal all of his secrets. Frustrated by the tedious fluff that’s passed off as priceless wisdom by today’s faux real-estate gurus, Artenosi has penned Onwards and Upwards, an uncommonly pragmatic guide for how real-estate agents and investors can generate serious long-term wealth.

By candidly chronicling his own career journey—which saw Artenosi establish himself as one of top real estate sales reps in Canada, and then build a diverse portfolio of high-profile investment projects—Onwards & Upwards works to helps novice and mid-career professionals understand the vital importance of prudent risk-taking, a service-first mentality and creative financing strategies.

Artenosi’s book, unlike so many others in the field, doesn’t wallow in the past or stay entrenched in the present; it looks forward to the future. It presents a complex and deeply compelling argument for understanding the critical role that the New Urbanism movement and sustainable redevelopment of urban areas will play in the years to come. The book demostrates that it’s possible to do well for oneself while doing even more for the communities and cities in which we live.
