DreamNation Real Estate Episode 56 – Charles Oglesby and Rashauna Scott: Mindset That Will Get You 46 Deals in Year One


Success usually comes to those who are too busy to be looking for it. As long as you keep going, continue opening the doors of opportunity, leverage, and let others leverage, success would surely present itself in front of you.

In a podcast interview hosted by Charles Oglesby and Rashauna Scott, our very own podcast host, Casanova, shares how he stumbled upon real estate, fell in love with it, and got 46 deals in his first year.

The co-hosts run The Oglesby and Scott Show together. Charles Oglesby is a real estate investor and entrepreneur, while Rashauna Scott is a licensed real estate broker and a certified real estate investor.
