"In Alhambra, Charlie and partners built 442 one-story-buy-to-own apartments on two 11 acre sites. This was the lowest end of the Munger projects. Each unit sold for around $20,000. Again, the apartments went fast. By then Munger felt he knew what buyers were looking for. He and the builders did not cut corners on design or construction details. When the project was finished, they made sure the units were attractively landscaped. "Lush landscaping" declared Charlie, "that's what sells. You spend money on trees and you get it back triple. Stinting on landscaping is building malpractice."

Director and Vice Chairman / Berkshire-Hathaway
