Upcoming Vacant Property Auction Tour

Value the Vacant Workshops

Unlocking the potential of vacant property.
In this workshop, I teach everyday people how to navigate the often-confusing process of purchasing vacant homes and buildings in their community. You’ll learn how to:

  • Find out who owns a vacant property

  • Understand how land banks work and how to engage with them

  • Do basic title searches and property research

  • Move from interest to ownership with confidence

Whether you're looking to invest, rebuild your neighborhood, or secure generational property, this workshop gives you the tools, resources, and real-life strategies to make it happen.
