🤖🏠 Would AI Buy This Deal?

The Kingston Investors Club is back after our summer pause — and we’re kicking off the fall with AI and real estate investing.

AI is quickly becoming much more than a tool for writing emails or creating marketing content. What happens when we use it as an investment companion?

Join us as we put AI to work on real-world real estate investing decisions and explore how it can support:

📊 Market Strategy
🏠 Valuation
🔎 Deal Analysis
💰 Capital Raising

We’ll look at where AI can add real value, where human experience and judgment still matter, and how investors can start incorporating AI into the way they evaluate opportunities and develop their strategies.

Bring your questions, your experience — and maybe even a deal you think AI should look at!

📅 Wednesday, September 16, 2026
⏰ 7:00–9:00 PM
📍 2392 Princess St, Kingston

Whether you're an experienced investor, just getting started, or simply curious about where AI fits into real estate investing, come join the conversation.

Great to be back. Looking forward to reconnecting with everyone!

Thank you to everyone who attended the Kingston Investors Club Meetup on Raising Capital last night. 🔥💯🙌

It was a fantastic evening of learning, networking, and sharing real-world insights on what it truly takes to raise capital and build investor trust.

A special thank you to Sushee Perumal for sharing his experience and perspective as an accredited investor and capital raiser. Your honesty, practical lessons, and strategic insights brought tremendous value to the room and gave our members actionable takeaways they can apply immediately.

One of the biggest themes of the night was that raising capital is ultimately about trust — built through authenticity, logic, and empathy. Investors don’t just invest in deals; they invest in people, systems, and confidence.

We appreciate everyone who continues to contribute to the growth of the Kingston investing community. Looking forward to seeing you at the next meetup!

Huge thank you to Jamie Bridger for delivering an outstanding session last night at the Kingston Investors Club! 🔥

The Appraiser’s Playbook was exactly what investors need right now.

Jamie broke down how appraisers really think, what truly drives valuation, how renovations are assessed in the real world (not just on HGTV), and how to use appraisal logic to negotiate stronger and avoid overpaying.

When you understand value, you invest with confidence.
When you understand appraisal strategy, you win the deal.

To everyone who came out — thank you for bringing the energy, the questions, and the collaborative spirit that makes this community so strong. Whether you’re buying your first rental or scaling a serious portfolio, these conversations are what sharpen our edge as investors.

Kingston continues to prove that it’s a market where informed investors thrive.

Network. Learn. Grow.

See you at the next one on March 11th with Clement to discuss the importance of life insurance programs as an investment and a way to protect generational wealth. 💯
