Ozzy Zahran got his start while still in college at the University of Minnesota, grinding through a handful of low-cost wholesale deals before moving into heavier lifts with Category 2 renovations. His early momentum turned into a breakthrough when his first commercial deal on the east side of St. Paul appraised well above expectations, unlocking a line of credit that accelerated everything that followed.
From there, Ozzy leaned into opportunity—acquiring discounted properties in North Minneapolis from a distressed investor, building out a portfolio that included sober housing and Section 8 rentals, and eventually scaling into larger multifamily with a 20-unit back on the east side. Today, at just 26 years old, he leads a team of 13 employees and manages a portfolio of over 80 units. Ozzy’s story is a case study in stacking small wins, staying aggressive when opportunity shows up, and using leverage the right way to build something meaningful, fast.
