Henry Washington couldn’t even be on the mortgage for his first home—his credit was so bad he had to be removed from the loan. But instead of giving up, he fixed his credit, got resourceful with funding (including borrowing from his wife’s 401k), and now owns 130+ rental properties and flips houses for $35k–$60k profit. In this episode, Henry and his wife Jessica share the full story of how they scaled, why they’re focused on paying off assets, and how they’re adding land splits, spec builds, and short-term rentals to the mix.
