In this short segment, Christian Osgood argues that real‑estate investors should move beyond single‑family homes and target larger multifamily properties of five units or more. He explains that scaling up changes the financial dynamics, allowing investors to achieve significantly higher returns. Osgood emphasizes the importance of defining clear investment goals and then selecting deals that align with those goals. He suggests a concrete rule: make the next acquisition a property with at least five units, which he claims will increase earnings by roughly 100% compared to staying in smaller, single‑family investments.

You get into larger buildings earlier. You don't need to get stuck in the small things scaling forever. Buy a larger deal, go 5 units and up, and you're playing a totally different game where you can get totally different numbers. Know what your goals are. If you know where you're headed, buy deals that actually get you there. I think for a lot of people, they keep buying the single family and the little stuff for a long time because they haven't written out, this is where I'm going and what is the most effective vehicle to get there. The rule that you should set for yourself is my next deal is going to be 5 units or more. If you do that, you're going to make more money on this strategy 100%. Set.
