ABOUT CHAD

(AKA COACH)

I have been investing in real estate full-time since 2003. I began by flipping houses, but I now also focus on buy and hold rental properties. I’m a teacher at heart, and I love to share what I’ve learned with others.

If you’d like to learn more about me and why I call myself coach, read my full story HERE.

I recommend books, tools, and other resources from time to time using links within my articles. In some cases these links are affiliate links. This means that if you click through and purchase, my company will receive a commission on the sale. These commissions help pay the bills around here (and avoid the need for spammy ads). But keep in mind that I only recommend a product or service if I’ve used it and personally believe in it. And I’ll recommend something that’s good whether it has an affiliate link or not. My first priority is helping you, my reader, to learn and improve.
