Sobre este episodio
Is buying rental properties still worth it in 2026? There’s no denying that rising interest rates, sluggish rent growth, and other factors have taken the shine off many properties that would have been home-run deals only a few years ago. But this is real estate we’re talking about. Buy-and-hold investing tends to reward people in the long run. It’s just that, to buy in this market, you’ve got to adapt. Chad “Coach” Carson believes these market conditions heavily favor the “small and mighty” investor—the person who isn’t looking to buy at a massive scale but actually handpick one or two great assets every year. But there’s one caveat: you must have the time, grit, and hunger to go out and find real estate deals that the more experienced, “lazy” investors can’t be bothered with. And Chad’s about to show you how to do just that. He shares how his own buy box has evolved in the last 12 months, his favorite strategies for buying off-market properties today, and what every investor can do to slowly and steadily build a rental portfolio that provides the lifestyle they want—no matter the market. In This Episode We Cover The two biggest ways to win as a “small” real estate investor in 2026 Why getting a strong cash-on-cash return today isn’t as important as you think The new investor’s superpower when looking for off-market properties Chad’s 3-2-1 strategy for building a portfolio with new construction homes The number one mistake most investors make shortly after buying a rental property The exact blueprint Chad would follow if you dropped him in a new market today How to arrive at “enough” when everyone tells you to keep scaling And So Much More!
