Christian Osgood warns against real-estate gurus who spend more time making content than running businesses. They claim expertise they don't have, stage property tours, and can't prove they've replicated success for anyone else. Before buying their courses or mentorships, verify their claims with concrete references and evidence of actual results.

of liars out there who will say they've done a thing and they haven't done it. No one calls them on it for years. It is horrible. And I see it all over the place. People talk about, oh, I love real estate, I do all this. I think you talk to them, they never talk real estate. They go to their properties when their marketing team's there and says, hey, we have a film crew here, you need to show up. They're a TV, YouTube, or Instagram personality. They're not an investor. I've met a lot of these people who spend 45 to 55 hours a week just on social media and marketing. They There's no time for their business. So when they tell you things, it's in theory, it's not in practice. Again, it goes back to being an operator. You verify this through references, testimonials. They should have a lot backing them of, okay, you've been successful. Have you been able to recreate that success for others? If you cannot answer yes for that question, do not buy their course, their mentorship, their event, their mastermind, whatever it is that they're selling. Some of these are fantastic. A lot of them, absolute garbage.
