You're looking for the bottom 10% properties in this entire neighborhood.

There's a baseline of quality.

So if you're in a C class neighborhood, the first thing that I look at is roofs, windows, siding, paint, signs of vacancy.

Some of the only things that you can find out if your eyes are on the property, you have to drive by that house to figure that out.

Welcome to the podcast, real estate investing with Coach Carson.

I'm your host Chad Carson.

You can also call me Coach.

And this is a show to help you get out of the financial grind so you can do more of what matters.

I'm here today with Anson Young. And we're going to talk about one of my favorite topics, which he happens to be an expert on, which is how to find good deals. So Anson, I'm going to introduce him real briefly. We'll jump into it. He is a real estate agent and an investor. He's in Denver, Colorado. He wrote the book from Bigger Pockets. Also, we published my book called The Book

on Finding and Funding Good Deals. And I think most importantly, the biggest compliment I can give

someone is Anson actually is doing the business. He's in the trenches. He's always learning. He's

adapting. So Anson, welcome to the show. It's great to have you here. Thank you, Chad. I am so

excited to talk to you today. I know we talk here and there

over the years, but yeah, I just enjoy what you have to teach, and I'm here to learn too.

Likewise, always, always a student here as well. So thank you for being here. So we discussed a little bit

ahead of time what would be fun. I thought it would be cool. I love case studies. I love examples. And sometimes just learning the tips you give inside of an example or make it even come to life even more. So I'm going to ask you a scenario. And let's kind of play around here. So you live in Denver, Colorado. That's been your market for a while. But if I took you out of Denver,

I dropped you in another city, let's just call it a small city. It's not New York or Chicago or L.A. It's a, you know, it's a 300,000-person city. It's got a good economy. Things are generally good. But I plop you down in this new city. And my challenge for you, Anson, is someone who knows how to find deals is in the next 90 days,

you had to go out and find at least one good rental property,

at least one. If you found more, that's great. And I ask this because I think a lot of people

listening to this are in this situation. They want to find another deal in the next 90 days.

And so I want to just go through a list of scenarios with with you here. So that's the, that's the background. That's the scenario. Let's let's start with, you can start wherever you want. But I was thinking, you know, like how would you choose where in that city to invest? How would you, first of all, how would you build a buy box to even know like what would what would you invest? So let's run with it and see what you think.

No, this is great because this is some of what I do for the last like two years or so.
