I’m Christian O’Brien, a proud University of Tampa Alumni who relocated south from Syracuse, NY. With a bachelor’s degree in Advertising & Public Relations, I understand the UT experience from every angle—having lived in on‑campus residence halls, off‑campus student housing, and traditional Tampa apartments. Today, I channel that insight into my role as a licensed Real Estate Advisor at Engel & Völkers Tampa Downtown.

Whether you’re an alumni ready to secure an FHA loan and purchase your first home, a parent seeking an investment property for your student and roommates, or a family eyeing a full relocation to Tampa Bay, I’m here to guide you. Backed by a brokerage team with 35+ years of local expertise, I offer tailored market insights, financing know‑how, and end‑to‑end support so UT families can make confident housing decisions—on campus, off campus, and beyond.
