Rental Inspections in Wayne County, Michigan

[Rob Kast]

Do any local investors have information/feedback about the rental inspection requirement in Wayne County? I’ve been told by a few of my landlord friends to avoid accumulating rentals in Wayne if possible because the county requires inspections every two years, and the inspection process can be somewhat arduous. However, the affordability of homes is so much better as opposed to Oakland or Macomb County.

I am looking to make my first deal with the intent of renting it in the very near timeframe and I don’t want to exclude an entire area based on a few opinions.

Any feedback is appreciated!
