Artificial Intelligence is transforming the way we work—and real estate investors are already putting it to use. From deal analysis and research to marketing and property management, AI tools are quickly becoming must-have resources for anyone serious about scaling their business.

This month, we’re hosting an interactive discussion on the AI tools investors are using right now. This won’t be a sit-back-and-listen session—we’ll have someone live on the computer pulling up sites and tools as they’re mentioned, so you can see them in action.

✅ Discover tools that can save you time and boost efficiency
✅ Learn how fellow investors are applying AI in real-world scenarios
✅ Share your own go-to resources and success stories

Whether you’re already experimenting with AI or just starting to explore what’s out there, you’ll leave with actionable insights and practical tools to take your investing to the next level.

Speaker: Ken Collins

Ken's journey began in the field of social work and psychotherapy, where he dedicated a decade to helping others navigate their personal challenges. Seeking new horizons, he transitioned into the tech industry, joining Hewlett-Packard. Over the next 24 years, he evolved from a Computer Engineer to a Global Project Manager, culminating in his leadership of the Global Sales Lead program, which under his stewardship generated nearly $1 billion in sales each year.

In 2016, Ken pivoted to real estate investing, initially employing the BRRRR (Buy, Rehab, Rent, Refinance, Repeat) method. Upon retiring from corporate life, he focused on creative deal structuring, mastering techniques like Subject-To (Sub2), Lease/Options, and Land Trusts. His portfolio includes over 50 Real Estate  transactions in the last 8 years, ranging from mobile homes, single family and  multifamily properties, showcasing his versatility and expertise in the real estate market.

Ken credits much of his real estate knowledge and sharpened skills to his active participation in the many WiscoREIA Madison education programs. Through joining their Coaching Program, completing the Blueprint course, and engaging in numerous educational opportunities including hands-on property tours and weekend training events from a variety of speakers sponsored by the REIA, Ken has continuously expanded his expertise in real estate.

Ken is renowned for his proficiency in lead generation and deal negotiation, leveraging a multitude of creative strategies to craft win-win scenarios in real estate. He now steps into his role as a coach for aspiring real estate investors, eager to share his knowledge and experience. He is always on the lookout for personal growth opportunities, being an active member of groups like Lifeonaire and the Generations of Wealth Mastermind group, which further fuel his passion for continuous learning and development. 

With a life that beautifully blends family, community, technology, and real estate, Ken Collins is not just a coach but a mentor who understands the art of building wealth through real estate while maintaining a life of balance and fulfillment.

Amanda Wilson is an alumna of the UW–Madison School of Business and the James A. Graaskamp Real Estate Program. She is an active member of the Wisconsin Real Estate Alumni Association (WREAA), WiscoREIA, and the founder of the Hayward Lakes REIA.

Since 2012, Amanda has owned and operated Deerfoot Lodge & Resort, a four-season family fishing resort on the Chippewa Flowage, Wisconsin's largest wilderness lake in Hayward, Wisconsin - an entrepreneurial endeavor that continues a cherished family vacation tradition and also launched her real estate investing journey. Over the years, she has expanded her portfolio to include storage, commercial, and residential rental properties, all driven by a mission to make the Hayward Lakes area an even better place to live, work, and play for generations to come.
