From 1 Restaurant to Over 1600 Multifamily Units "Wheelbarrow Profits" - Gino Barbaro Episode #69

GUEST BIO Gino Barbaro is the co founder of Jake and Gino LLC, one of the two duos who started their investing journey with their first 24 units. Gino started off as a restaurant owner for 25 years but that did not stop him from experimenting into the real estate space to grow their portfolio to more than 1600 units of multifamily apartments. Gino did not stop there, he went along and built an educational company with his partner Jake under the well known Jake & Gino umbrella. Gino is a certified professional coach and he believes that when doing business, what matters to him more is the service and fulfillment he can provide to his clients rather than the returns he could possibly acquire from them. Gino sheds key insights on personal development, partnerships which he’s executed thoroughly as the partner of a well respected real estate brand as Jake & Gino.
