How to Build a 6-Figure Real Estate Business Helping Sellers in Foreclosure
Crown Plaza at 6500 Doubletree Avenue Columbus, OH 43229, Crown Plaza at 6500 Doubletree Avenue, Columbus, OH, US[Note: Registering here on Meetup does NOT reserve your seat. To reserve your seat, please register on our website, HERE.]
Most investors think foreclosure opportunities begin at the auction.
The truth is, by then, many of the best opportunities have already passed.
The real opportunity is in pre-foreclosure, when homeowners still have options, investors can actually see the property before buying it, and everyone has a chance to create a solution that benefits both the seller and the investor.
And that’s becoming more important than ever.As more homeowners struggle with rising housing costs and financial pressure, investors who understand pre-foreclosures will have opportunities that simply aren’t available once a property reaches the auction or becomes bank-owned.
But succeeding in pre-foreclosures takes more than sending postcards or making offers. You need to understand what homeowners are experiencing, how to communicate with them, and how to structure deals that truly solve their problems.
That’s exactly what Dwan & Bill Twyford will teach during this intensive two-day workshop.
With more than 80 years of combined real estate investing experience, they’ve built successful businesses by helping homeowners in pre-foreclosure while creating profitable deals through subject-to investing, short sales, creative financing, and other proven strategies.
During this two-day workshop, you’ll learn:
• How to successfully market to homeowners in pre-foreclosure
• What to say when you first talk with sellers—including real-world conversation scripts
• Strategies for working with sellers who have substantial equity
• How to negotiate profitable short sales when little or no equity exists
• Subject-To investing and other creative financing techniques
• Multiple exit strategies for pre-foreclosure deals
• How to build a business that consistently
generates leads instead of constantly chasing themWhether you’re buying your first investment property or building a full-time investing business, you’ll leave with practical systems and strategies you can begin using immediately.

We keep hearing that AI is going to revolutionize real estate.
Great.But what can it actually do for YOUR real estate business TODAY?
We’ve asked 4 normal investors to show us exactly how THEY’RE using AI right now.
Not someday. Not theoretically. Right now.
Plus, we’ll have an actual AI genius to show us what else is possible.
Come see how investors are using AI to:
• Find and research deals
• Evaluate opportunities
• Follow up with leads
• Communicate with residents
• Handle repetitive business tasks faster

The AI Automated Investor Challenge with Damon Remy
·OnlineOnline[NOTE: RSVPing here does NOT get you a link: you'll need to register at the Event Site to do that.]
If your real estate business still requires you to personally manage every moving part, there's a problem:
You don't own a business. You own a very stressful job.
And in today's market, that's getting harder to sustain.Whether you're hunting for deals or already managing a portfolio, there are leads to chase, sellers to follow up with, appointments to book, properties to manage, messages to answer, repairs to schedule, and dozens of other things demanding your attention.
But what if AI could take over much of that work?
On Saturday, August 22, Damon Remy, CEO of REI BlackBook, is spending a transformational day showing real estate investors how to use AI to build a Real Estate Operating System that generates consistent cash flow—without everything falling apart the moment you step away.
You'll learn how to:
- Use AI and predictive data to find motivated sellers sooner—before your competition even knows they exist.
- Build a 24/7 automated follow-up engine that responds to leads in seconds and books appointments while you sleep.
- Automate the work behind your existing portfolio—including management, communication, and follow-up that's consuming your time.
- Replace self-employed chaos with systems that keep critical parts of your business moving without your constant involvement.
- Walk away with a complete Real Estate Operating System and a blueprint you can use to build a more scalable real estate business.
This isn't AI theory.
It's about putting AI to work in your real estate business.And it's about building something that works for you—instead of creating another job that owns your time.
The workshop will be recorded and all registrants will receive the recording, so register even if you can’t attend live.
