Deal Analysis Workshop
Using AI & Automation for Smarter Real Estate Deals
Property Evaluation Workshop for Real Estate Investors with Don DeRosa
Sat, Sept 26th, 9AM-6PM
on Zoom Webinar for Tampa REIA Members & Guests
Stop Guessing Whether a Property Is a Deal or Not!
A promising property can become an expensive mistake when the comps are weak, the repair budget is incomplete, or the offer is based on hope instead of a clear model. AI and Automation for Smarter Real Estate Deals is a full-day, in-person training experience designed to help real-estate investors organize property information, test assumptions, compare strategies, and reach better-informed decisions faster.
Join Don DeRosa for a full day of hands-on instuction, live demonstrations and practical case studies showing how ChatGPT, Claude, Easy Offer Maker Pro, and other AI tools can support the way you evaluate deals. You will see a repeatable process for moving from raw property data to comps, ARV, repairs, offer scenarios, and a clear go-or-no-go decision.
What if you could enter the details of a property and quickly uncover the questions that deserve a closer look? During this training, you will see how AI can help you sort through property information, test the numbers, and reveal issues that are easy to miss when you are moving quickly. You may be surprised by how much of the evaluation process can be organized before you ever open another spreadsheet.
You will also see how automation can connect the individual steps into one consistent workflow. Instead of rebuilding the analysis for every lead, you can create a process that helps you review the property, compare possible offers, and decide what needs human verification. Don will demonstrate the tools with live examples, including situations where the first impression of a deal changes after the assumptions are tested. Come see what the numbers reveal before you make your next offer.

The REI AI Advantage
How to Find More Deals, Talk to More Sellers, Automate Your Business & Close More Transactions
A Full Day Intensive, Hands-On, AI Integration Workshop with Don DeRosa
Real estate is changing. The investors who learn how to use AI now will have a serious advantage over those who don’t.
What if you could find more motivated sellers, follow up with more leads, create better marketing, automate repetitive tasks, and move deals toward the closing table without adding more hours to your day?
That’s exactly what we’re going to show you at THE REI AI ADVANTAGE WORKSHOP with Don DeRosa.

This isn’t about sitting around talking about the future of artificial intelligence.
This is about using AI to make MONEY in real estate TODAY!
During this powerful session, you’ll discover how investors can use AI to:
- ✓ Find and identify more potential deals
- ✓ Improve seller conversations and follow-up
- ✓ Create marketing that gets attention and generates leads
- ✓ Automate repetitive tasks that eat up your time
- ✓ Write texts, emails, letters and offers in seconds
- ✓ Analyze opportunities faster and make better decisions
- ✓ Turn more leads into contracts and more contracts into CLOSED DEALS
Think about how much time gets wasted every week writing follow-up messages, figuring out what to say to sellers, creating marketing, researching properties, organizing leads and chasing people who never respond.
AI can become the extra set of hands you wish you had at a price you can easily afford.
But there is a catch:
Owning the tools isn’t the advantage.
Knowing how to USE them is what’s important.
Come see practical strategies you can start implementing immediately, whether you’re brand-new to real estate or already doing multiple deals and need the extra help.
Join us to at the REI AI Advantage Workshop to Learn How to…
Find More Deals
Followup Up Faster on Your Incoming Leads
Automate Your REI Systems & Processes
Close More Deals Quickly
The investors who adapt their business and technologies will have the advantage.
Will you be one of them?

The AI Fix & Flip Blueprint
A Modern System for Finding Deals, Estimating Repairs & Flipping Houses for Profit
A Two-Day Intensive Hands-On Workshop
with Don DeRosa
If you have ever thought about flipping houses but felt overwhelmed, unsure where to start, or worried about making an expensive mistake, listen closely.
My name is Don DeRosa. During this event I will also show you how investors are using AI tools to analyze deals faster, research properties quicker, and run their business more efficiently.
On April 18th and 19th I am hosting a two-day, hands-on real estate renovation workshop designed to show you the exact process for finding, evaluating, renovating, and flipping houses for profit.
This is not a theory class.
This is practical training where you learn the real numbers, the real process, and the systems used by professional investors.
Saturday runs from 9 AM to 5 PM in the classroom at the Ramada Westshore located, 1200 N Westshore Blvd, Tampa, FL.
Sunday runs from 9 AM to 3 PM and we go into the field to analyze real properties together.
Day one focuses on the strategy.
You learn how a successful flipping business works from start to finish.
We cover:
- How to build a solid flipping strategy
- Where to find the right properties
- How to evaluate deals and avoid expensive mistakes
- How to estimate repairs and manage contractors
- How to fund your deals using multiple financing options
- How to negotiate with sellers, lenders, contractors, and buyers
- How to run the numbers so you protect your profit
- The legal and tax issues every investor needs to understand
- Marketing strategies to sell properties quickly
We will also show you how AI tools help analyze deals, estimate values, research neighborhoods, and organize renovation projects in a fraction of the time.
Day two is where things become real.
We leave the classroom and go into the field at a location to be determined..
We visit several real houses.
We walk the properties together.
We estimate repairs.
We discuss renovation plans.
We run the numbers.
You see exactly how investors decide whether a deal works or not.
This part changes everything because you see the process happen in real life.
You will be looking at real houses, using real numbers, and seeing how real offers are structured.
By the end of the weekend you understand how to find deals, evaluate renovations, control costs, and structure profitable flips.
You also leave with systems, worksheets, and practical strategies you start using immediately.
If you want to take advantage of the strong real estate market and learn how the house flipping business works step by step, this two-day event gives you the foundation.
Seats are limited because of the field training.
Register Now and I look forward to seeing you on April 18th and 19th.

How and Why to Invest in Condos and Co-ops
An Online Masterclass
with Linda Baumgarten
Saturday, January 18th, 9AM-1:30PM
On Zoom Webinar
Whether you’re a first-time investor or an experienced buyer looking for a new, less-competitive property class, condos and co-ops are worth considering. Learn what to look for and pitfalls to avoid in this 1/2 Day Online Masterclass with Linda Baumgarten.
How and Why to Invest in Condos and Co-ops, an Online Masterclass with Linda Baumgarten
Saturday, January 18th, 9AM – 1:30PM
Online via Zoom Webinar
Register Online Now!
Condos and Co-Ops Might be the “Secret” Property Class You’ve Been Looking For…
Most real estate investors don’t even THINK about condos as properties to wholesale, or retail, or invest in as long-term rentals.
So if most of your competitors aren’t considering them, does that mean that maybe…YOU should?
Linda Baumgarten did, early on in her real estate career, and ended up renting and flipping them more of them than we’ve ever seen one person do, and, ultimately becoming an “ender” from those investments.
That’s why we’ve invited her to come share what you need to know to do the same thing, like:
- Why what you “know” about condos might be old news—you’ll be surprised to find out how big the demand actually is, and who the primary buyers and renters are today.
- The many advantages of condos and co-ops over single family homes, and the biggest challenges they have as investments.
- Which condos should you invest in, and which to avoid. This section alone will save you a ton of wasted time.
- How you find them, evaluate them, and finance them, all of which is a little different than what your used to .
- The one key document you MUST, without fail, have before you close.
- Plus tons of real life examples of how you can flip them for quick cash, keep them for long-term income and appreciation, and maybe even find one for yourself…
Whether you’re looking for cheap properties to invest in for your first deal, or you’re an experienced rehabber or rental provider who wants to expand into a less-competitive property class, you should be here to learn to recognize the opportunities and avoid the pitfalls.
Linda’s decades of experience, nationwide reputation as an educator, and heart for teaching make her the one you want to learn this from…
