Rental Properties, Detroit

Jayde L Kennedy
Posted

Hi we are new investors my husband and I, we are doing research on Detroit MI right now and we are wondering if anyone has any good insights on investing in Detroit. 

The houses are in our budget with little to no rehab. Is Detroit worth investing in?

Hey Jayde, I am THE expert here on Detroit. I will die on that hill :-)

I lived in Metro Detroit from 2017-2022 before recently relocating back to California. 

From 2019-2021 I purchased and renovated over 12-doors in the CITY of Detroit (not the suburbs -- they are very different beasts).

Investing in Detroit has literally been life-changing for me and my family. I'm still active there and I'm also now helping other investors locate strong off-market deals, connect with my contractors, and then my preferred property manager. I'm happy to help.

Beyond that, I'm now regularly blogging about Detroit (check profile) and truly believe there a massive dislocation with pricing because people still have a negative perception of the city and don't understand all the amazing things happening there on the ground.

Happy to connect and chat!
