Does anyone have experience investing in Flint MI?

Toni Dixon
Posted

I'm interested in investing in Flint MI, specifically multifamily (2-8 units) as buy and hold.   Has anyone invested in the area recently or currently holding multifamily? If so, what are the average rents to 2bed/1bath units?  How do you find your properties?   Thanks Toni

@Toni Dixon we are local, just south of Flint. We have been investing in Flint since 2019. Both flips and rentals. Cash flow is great. Now it’s a little tougher with the higher property values. You need to be extremely picky on the neighborhoods you buy in. We were paying 40-60k for 3/1 homes bringing $750 rents (C class homes). Now those rents are up to about 900-1100 and those homes doubled in value. But again, neighborhood is important. We flipped 3 that we were going to rent because we moved to different investments. It’s a little harder to find a deal now like it is all over. Keep in mind Michigan in general is sensitive to economy fluctuations. Have a good property manager that screens well would be best advice.
