Real Estate Planning in Q4

David Osborn has had a huge impact on my life without even realizing it, so I am super excited to have him on this week’s podcast! He has closed more than 1,000 transactions over the course of his 25 years in the real estate business. And he has founded 50+ companies including the seventh-largest real estate brokerage in the United States! David’s philosophy is deeply aligned with what we talk about on Pursuing Freedom, and in this episode, David joins us to explain how he helps real estate professionals achieve success in business by achieving success in life.

Scaleable Success

David now has more than 5,000 agents on his team, and he says each one of them is his “boss’ because he is constantly working hard to keep them happy and successful. In order to scale his real estate business to that level, David’s mentality, skills, and knowledge had to transcend the entire organization. From twenty-year veterans to first-year rookies, David’s success framework is ingrained in every team member. Throughout his journey, he had to overcome fears, master the art of goal setting, and get clear on his vision. Now he is helping his team members work through the same process. There is no limit to what you can achieve other than what you can produce. This process works, and it is the reason his team is closing over 37,000 transactions per year!

Overcome Your Fears of the Path to Success

David lives his life with purpose. He makes his family and health a priority, and he enjoys the freedoms of success that the real estate business offers! But unfortunately, not everyone in our industry can say the same. If you are killing it and hitting your marks every month, that is a great thing. However, if you are doing so at the expense of your happiness and health, you aren’t living the life you deserve! We live in a safe world full of opportunities, so don’t give in to exaggerated fears that cause us to minimize risk and turn our backs on the mildly treacherous path to financial freedom.

About David Osborn

After sticking out his thumb and traveling the world, David returned home to Austin, Texas, broke and unemployed, at the age of 26. Though his travels may not have yielded wealth, they instilled the key motivation that he brings to every part of his life to create it — freedom.

Because to have everything you ever wanted takes the opportunity to design your life and believe it can happen.

Through this intention, David began to test his entrepreneurial merits alongside his business-partner mom in the world of real estate. The results were nothing short of remarkable. In less than 10 years, David would build one of the top real estate brokerages globally, founding over 50 companies.

Yet, more than anything else, the inherent freedom derived from his success awards him the time to focus on the importance on what matters most: being a proud father of two beloved daughters, a son, and husband to the wonderful and talented Traci Osborn.

Today, still rooted in his boundless sense of adventure, David continues to travel the world not only to be enlightened by new experiences but to share his insight and expertise with others so they, too, can truly be free.
