EP 20: The Small and Mighty Investor with Coach Chad Carson
(this is our first Zoom recorded episode and we will work further to improve the audio, thanks for being patient while we take massive imperfect action)
Unfortunately, Social Media and Influencers or Gurus have sold a lie that every single investor needs to own 1,000 properties to receive any benefit or even to be deemed successful in Real Estate Investing. In a refreshing conversation, this episode interviews a Bigger Pockets author and experienced investor who believes that the small investors (portfolio wise) can also be mighty. Don't get lost in the noise of chasing a hundred properties. Dive into this conversation with us to hear about how a smaller portfolio can still build tremendous wealth.
Courtney and Coach Chad cover many topics in their conversations but some you'll want to pay attention to are:
-their mutual mentors John Schaub and the like
-what a small and mighty investor means
-a really unique approach to financial freedom that he takes
-among other important conversation pieces
We hope you enjoyed the conversation and got something out of it to help you on your journey.
Chad Carson (aka Coach Carson) is an author, investor, podcaster, and life-long learner who used real estate investing to reach financial independence in his 30s. With a portfolio of thirty-plus houses and small multifamily properties, Chad's primary real estate strategy is buy-and-hold rentals—but he has also used private lending, wholesaling, fix-and-flips, and creative financing. His current passion is teaching other investors how to build a small and mighty rental property business so they can get out of the financial grind and do more of what matters. Based in Clemson, South Carolina, Chad and his family have also lived abroad in other countries, including 17 months in Cuenca, Ecuador and 12 months in Granada, Spain. When not writing about himself in third person, vying for the silliest dad award, or playing pick-up basketball, Chad enjoys volunteering with a local non-profit he co-founded to create a network of walking and bike paths in his hometown.
His two books published by Bigger Pockets are The Small and Mighty Investor and Retire Early with Real Estate. Connect further with Coach Carson at CoachCarson.com.
