446 | Small and Mighty Real Estate Investor | Chad Carson

Most real estate investors obsess over adding more properties to their portfolios. Chad Carson spent years doing the opposite—and found it made him wealthier, happier, and far less stressed. Chad returns to discuss his newly released book, 'The Small and Mighty Real Estate Investor,' which challenges the real estate community's relentless focus on acquisition. Drawing from his experiences during the Great Recession and his introduction to the FIRE community, Chad redefines success in real estate investing around one central question: What is enough? The conversation explores the significance of location and walkability, the psychological benefits of debt reduction, and how owning fewer properties can minimize hassle while maximizing freedom. Chad shares the strategies he's implemented to simplify his investing process, allowing him to travel and live abroad while spending just two to four hours per week managing his portfolio.
