Christian Osgood went from living out of his car to controlling 225 rental units in roughly two and a half years, using creative financing instead of a traditional bank loan. That turnaround is what brought him to the Digital Social Hour, where he sat down with Sean Kelly to walk through exactly how he did it.
The conversation traces Christian Osgood's path through some genuinely difficult years, including a period of losing everything after involvement with a high-control group, before shifting into the deal-making that took him from his first real estate purchase to buying resorts and multifamily properties with little money down.
