"I felt trapped. I felt like I couldn't go anywhere in life. But once I got over that fear and disbelief, I was like, hey, I can actually do this." - Gino

What if you could escape feeling completely stuck in life and transform your financial future with just $750? Gino Henry's journey from Dallas school custodian to successful real estate investor proves that your starting point doesn't determine your destination. After years of attending seminars that left him empty-handed and feeling more trapped than ever, Gino discovered the breakthrough strategy that changed everything.

This isn't another get-rich-quick story. Gino's path involved working two full-time jobs—literally around the clock between two positions—to build the foundation for his real estate success. His first deal using an FHA duplex strategy and Texas Affordable Housing program turned a modest $750 investment into $70,000 profit, while teaching him the skills and confidence to keep building wealth.

How can someone with bad credit and no money get started in real estate?

According to Gino's experience, the combination of FHA financing for owner-occupied duplexes and state affordable housing programs can eliminate most financial barriers. The key is improving your situation first through increased income and debt reduction.

What is the Texas Affordable Housing Corporation program?

This program pays for both down payment and closing costs for first-time homebuyers who commit to living in the property for a minimum of three years. It's designed for owner-occupied properties including duplexes and fourplexes.

Is it really possible to work two full-time jobs successfully?

While extremely challenging, Gino worked 6:30 AM to 3:30 PM at Dallas ISD, then 6 PM to 6 AM at UT Southwestern Medical Center. He used this schedule for two years to double his income, pay off debt, and build investment capital.
