Part 6/8:
For single-family homes, Carson prefers properties ranging from 1,500 to 1,800 square feet, which typically allows for a three-bedroom, two-bath layout. He advocates for simple designs that minimize maintenance—avoiding complex rooflines and opting instead for straightforward rectangular structures with crawl spaces for easy access.
In multi-family scenarios, he prefers smaller, strategically designed units that cater specifically to the target demographic, be it college students or young professionals.
Low-Maintenance Materials
Carson recommends low-maintenance materials for both exteriors and interiors to reduce long-term costs. For instance, brick or masonry exteriors require less upkeep than wood, while luxury vinyl or tile flooring is more durable and practical than carpet.
