Let’s be honest — chasing leads manually in today’s market feels a lot like trying to catch rain with a bucket full of holes. You’re juggling spreadsheets, skipping tracing lists, half-working automations, and follow-ups that somehow always fall through the cracks. Meanwhile, the best opportunities — like pre-foreclosure homeowners who just entered the public record — are time-sensitive and hyper-competitive. The faster you reach them with the right message, the better your chances. That’s where AI-powered lead generation and automation stop being “nice to have” and start becoming mission-critical.
In this guide, we’re going to break down how modern investors and agents are using AI and automation to instantly capture pre-foreclosure leads, enrich them with accurate contact data, personalize outreach at scale, and route everything directly into their sales systems without lifting a finger. No buzzwords. No fluff. Just practical strategies that turn raw public data into real conversations, real appointments, and real deals — while you focus on what actually grows your business.
This article / guide will help you set up an automated system. The system will:
Make sure you have these things ready:
Accounts You Need
API Keys You Need
An API key is like a password that lets different programs talk to each other. Get these API keys ready:
Write these down in a safe place. You will need them later.
Other Information You Need
First, you will load the workflow into n8n.
Your workflow has different parts called “nodes.” Each node does one job. You need to set up each one.
Click on each node to change its settings.
Schedule Trigger Node
This node starts your workflow at the same time each day.
What to set:
Web Scraper Node
This node gets new pre-foreclosure data from the county.
What to set:
Filter Duplicates Node
This node stops you from contacting the same person twice.
You need to connect this to a place that remembers which leads you already processed. This could be:
The node checks if you already handled this property. If yes, it skips it.
BatchLeads Skip Trace Node
This node finds the owner’s phone number and email address.
What to set:
Claude AI Node
This node creates custom messages for each property owner.
What to set:
Create Contact in GoHighLevel
This node saves the lead information in your CRM.
What to set:
Add to Campaign Node
This node adds the contact to a campaign or adds a tag. This tells WAVV the lead is ready to call.
What to set:
Note: Some people use tags instead of campaigns. Either way works.
WAVV watches your GoHighLevel account for new leads. When the workflow adds a contact and tags them, WAVV knows to add them to the call list.
In WAVV, tell it which Smart Lists or Tags to watch. When a contact gets that tag, WAVV adds them to the dialer.
When your sales team uses WAVV to call leads, they will see all this information:
This gives them everything they need for each call. No more searching for information.
Before you turn on the workflow for real, test it first.
You’re Done!
Your workflow is now set up. It will run every day and find new leads for you. Your sales team will have all the information they need to make calls.
If you have problems, go back and check each step. Make sure all your API keys are correct.
