About Eyes Open

Your building is already telling you what it’s going to cost you. Most owners only hear it when the bill shows up.

Eyes Open teaches building owners and asset managers how their buildings really work, so the next big repair is in the plan before it’s an emergency. One free lesson every Thursday, one step at a time: know what you own, plan for it, do the work, and prove it worked. On Tuesdays, a closer look at one part of that plan on a real building.

Who writes it

I’m Jon Weiskopf, a licensed Professional Engineer. I’ve spent 20 years building things. For 9 of them I ran engineering for Apple’s retail stores around the world: 300 to 400 stores in more than 21 countries. That’s where I learned what makes a building last, what makes it fail, and what it costs the people who own it.

Today I own and lend on buildings myself. Eyes Open is what I wish every owner had before they signed.

What you get

• The weekly lesson, free.

• Guides and tools for the big calls, like what’s behind the walls before you buy.

• Open Book: I build the plan with a small group of owners, on their own buildings. The first 10 are free.

Subscribe, and the next lesson reaches you Thursday.
