Why buy an old, worn-down rental property when you can build something that’s highly profitable, low-maintenance, and tailor-made for today’s tenants? If you’re tired of the constant upkeep and costly repairs that come with regular rentals, stay tuned for an investing strategy that could be your shortcut to financial freedom—build-to-rent!

Welcome back to the “Real Estate Rookie” podcast! Chad Carson is perhaps best known for his “small and mighty portfolio” approach, but today, he’s pulling back the curtain on the strategy he’s using to create instant equity and huge cash flow. In this episode, you’ll learn how build-to-rent investing gives you all the benefits of regular rentals, but with less competition, less maintenance, and potentially even bigger margins!

Chad shares his best secrets for rookie investors—like what to look for when buying land, the key to finding and keeping contractors in any market, and how to shorten the build-to-rent learning curve by teaming up with a partner. He’ll also show you several ways to finance these projects and how to analyze them as both new builds and long-term investments!
