EXactREIYour next chapter.
Built together.

You don't need to have real estate all figured out. Bring your questions, your goals, and wherever you're starting. We'll help you find a next step that feels right for you.

Real estate coaching for the life you want to build.
Ken Collins

Hi, I'm Ken. Let's start where you are.

Maybe you're considering your first investment. Maybe you've started and feel a little stuck. We'll work through the questions together, one practical step at a time.

Get to know me

A way forward, one step at a time

You bring the questions.
We'll find the next step.

It's easy to feel pulled in a dozen directions. The EXACT method helps us slow things down, understand what matters to you, and work through each decision together.

01 / 05Start with your life

What are you
really building?

Time with your family. More choice in your work. A business you actually enjoy running. Define the life first, then choose the investing path that supports it.

A question worth asking

If real estate worked, what would an ordinary Tuesday look like?

02 / A different kind of investor

The property is
what they own.
The problem is
why they may sell.

A useful conversation changes what you see. Before you choose a strategy, understand the person on the other side of the table.

Illustrative seller scenario
Behind the front door
"The house is empty. I live three hours away, and I can't keep coming back to deal with it."

Look beyond the property

Distance. Responsibility. Uncertainty.

Start by understanding the seller's timeline, decision-makers, and what they want to stop managing. A simpler transition may matter as much as the price.

"What would make this easier for you?"

Build this kind of judgment with a coach

03 / EXactREI InvestorFit

Your path starts
with you.

Wholesaling, flipping, rentals, lending. The right starting point depends on more than what sounds exciting.

InvestorFit helps you explore how your interests, strengths, resources, and readiness align with different investing paths. Bring that clarity into your next coaching conversation.

05 / The person behind the method

Real experience.
A human approach.

"The goal is to build a real estate investing business that supports the life you envision."

Ken Collins brings a background in helping people, leading technology projects, and investing in real estate to his work as a coach.

Since beginning his investing journey in 2016, he has worked across rental properties, renovations, and creative deal structures. EXactREI brings that experience into a repeatable way of thinking: start with your life, understand the seller, and create an investment that makes sense.

Start a coaching conversation

A little more clarity

Before your
next step.

Do I need investing experience?

EXactREI is built for new and developing investors. InvestorFit can help you explore a starting direction, Blueprint training builds foundational knowledge, and a coaching conversation helps determine whether direct support fits your current situation.

How do EXactREI and WiscoREIA connect?

EXactREI is the investing method developed by Ken Collins. The training and coaching opportunities linked here are offered through WiscoREIA's REI Blueprint programs. Applications continue through WiscoREIA's designated coaching application.

Is training the same as coaching?

No. Blueprint training is an eight-week educational program. REI Blueprint Coaching provides ongoing guidance on your goals, opportunities, and execution. Review the program details with the team to choose the right level of support.

What happens after I apply?

The coaching application starts a conversation about your goals, experience, and readiness. The team will help you evaluate fit and explain current program structure, commitments, and pricing before you decide.

Can I participate outside Wisconsin?

InvestorFit is available online, and Blueprint training is virtual. Coaching is focused on Wisconsin and the surrounding region. Ask the team about your location when exploring coaching.

Build with intention.

Your life is the blueprint.
Let's build from there.
