Tom's Story
From wholesaling to 820+ Section 8 units
Tom Cruz is a Section 8 real estate investor, mentor, and founder of Section 8 Pro AI. With 820+ rental units across the Southeast and an online community of more than 1.8 million followers, Tom has become one of the leading voices in Section 8 investing.
After starting in real estate wholesaling, Tom transitioned into Section 8 rentals, first with condos and later with single-family homes. Today, his portfolio generates over $1.3 million per month in rental income.
Through his mentorship program, Tom has helped hundreds of students buy their first cash-flowing Section 8 property, many while still working full-time jobs. His mission is simple: make Section 8 investing accessible, profitable, and scalable for anyone willing to put in the work.
Tom believes video courses don't work — everyone learns differently and starts from a different place. That's why Section 8 Pro AI combines software-driven deal analysis with 1-on-1 mentorship, so students get a system that adapts to them, not the other way around.
