What Most Investors Don’t Know About Today’s Foreclosure Market
Creative Real Estate Made Simple with Scot Poirier

Tuesday, 4/21/2026 6:30 pm - 9pm

Most people in real estate are still waiting for the market to get easier.

Meanwhile, the people who usually pull ahead are the ones who learn how to solve problems while everyone else is still standing around thinking about it.

That’s why this conversation matters.

Right now, more homeowners are falling behind. More properties are moving closer to foreclosure. And when that starts happening, investors who understand creative finance begin to see opportunities that other people completely miss.

That’s whatĀ Scot wilĀ be talking about.

I’m going to break this down in a simple, practical way and show you how creative deals can come together using strategies like subject-to, seller financing, lease options, and other creative structures that allow deals to happenĀ without your own money, without your own credit, and without ever needing a bank loan to make it happen.

No fluff.
No complicated theory.
Just a real conversation about how creative real estate actually works.

This is especially for the person who’s just getting started, or who may have done a deal or two but still feels like there’s something about creative deals they haven’t quite figured out yet.

Sometimes it’s not a lack of effort. It’s simply that nobody has ever broken it down in a way that really makes sense.

That’s exactly what this session is designed to do.

You can sit on the sidelines and keep trying to piece things together, or you can spend an hour seeing how creative deals actually come together.

What if the best deals over the next few years aren’t the ones everybody is chasing… but the ones most investors simply don’t know how to structure?

Special thanks to Paul Shaughnessy with Renovo Financial for generously providing refreshments.

Boston AREIA | Tuesday, May 19, 2026
6:30 PM – 9:00 PM

Most investors are guessing when they analyze deals.

They pull a few comps… estimate rents, analyze a rehab… and hope it works.

But appraisers don’t guess.
They follow a system.

And once you understand how they think, everything changes.

At this Boston AREIA meeting,Ā Danyl CollingsĀ will break down how to analyze deals like an appraiser so you can:

  • Choose the right comps (and avoid costly mistakes)
  • Accurately determine ARV
  • Understand true value vs. list price
  • Analyze deals with confidence—before you ever make an offer

No fluff.
No overcomplicated spreadsheets.
Just a clear, practical framework you can actually use.

Perfect if:

  • You’re just getting started
  • You’ve done a few deals but want tighter numbers
  • You’re tired of second-guessing your analysis

Because the difference between a good deal and a bad one…
is how well you understand the numbers.
