Ep. 217 - Why Most People Believe Rentals Create Wealth, but Never Buy One
Thu Feb 05 2026
Everyone knows that rental properties are a proven path to long-term wealth, so why do so few people actually own them?
In this episode, Chad Harris breaks down the three psychological and strategic roadblocks that keep investors on the sidelines. We discuss how to structure deals using none of your own money (the 70% rule), why "timing the market" is a myth when you have a 30% equity buffer, and the importance of surrounding yourself with experienced investors rather than the naysayers.
Plus, Chad shares an exciting update about the podcast’s new name: One Rental to Freedom.
