Buying your first rental property can feel overwhelming—especially if it’s out of state. In this episode of the Rent To Retirement Podcast, host Matthew Seyoum sits down with Chandler, a real investor who went from zero experience to owning two new-construction rental properties in Alabama in under a year.
Chandler shares how he overcame analysis paralysis, chose the right market, trusted a property management team, and took action—without fixing, flipping, or managing from afar. If you’re researching real estate but struggling to make your first move, this episode is a must-watch.
