Some of the best real estate deals come from situations most investors overlook — and often misunderstand.
Join Atty. Amy Farrow for a focused session on navigating foreclosure and probate opportunities in today’s market. This meeting will break down how these two deal sources work, where to find them, and how investors can approach them with confidence and clarity.
Distressed properties can create strong investment opportunities — but only when you understand the process, timing, and strategy behind them. This session will help you cut through the confusion and identify real opportunities others may be missing.
Whether you’re just getting started or looking to expand your deal flow, this session will give you a clearer understanding of how to navigate two of the most powerful off-market sources in real estate investing.
Come ready to learn how to recognize opportunity where others see complexity.

WiscoREIA’s Appleton Meeting Always Meets on the 2nd Wednesday of the Month from 5:30 pm - 8:00 pm!
Hosts: Geoff Possley & Kent Zaretzke
Geoff is a part time buy and hold investor with investments in the Fox Valley and Sheboygan area. He is a full-time aircraft certification engineer for Gulfstream Aerospace in Appleton where he lives with his wife Laura and four children Carter, Madeline, Rowen and Brielle.
Geoff got started in real estate in 2005, with very little REI knowledge, when he purchased a single-family home with the plan to do a live-in flip over the next few years. After the bubble burst in 2008 his focus shifted from turning a profit to simply breaking even. This led Geoff to step away from real estate for a number of years until he discovered WiscoREIA in 2018 where he finally was able to acquire the knowledge and network that was necessary to be successful in real estate investing. His goal is to use REI as a means to retire early from engineering.
Geoff currently invests in single-family and small multi-family properties that he operates as traditional rentals as well as short term furnished rentals. In his free time Geoff enjoys camping with his family, playing golf, snowboarding, hunting, and good beer.
With over 15 years of experience as a business owner, Kent Zaretzke has built a strong reputation for leadership, craftsmanship, and growth in the Fox Valley area. He has been a dedicated sponsor of Wisco REIA for the past 10 years, actively supporting and contributing to the local real estate investing community.
As a seasoned real estate investor, Kent owns multiple investment properties and is deeply involved in the renovation process, bringing a hands-on approach to improving and adding value to each project. His passion lies in building businesses, creating opportunities, and helping others achieve financial freedom through real estate.
