I Finally Moved To Detroit!

So, I've been listening to BiggerPockets podcasts for a while and decided that I wanted to move to Detroit and invest in the revitalization of this jewel of a city.  

No, I'm not interested in being part of the movement to push people out of their homes, but instead, invest in Detroit Land Bank abandoned properties and flipping them efficiently.

I work remotely in the advocacy+political world, so I could technically live anywhere.  After visiting Detroit multiple times and dibbling and dabbling in real estate investing, I decided to come here so I could be on the ground for the projects I'm going to be involved with.


Today, I'll be going to visit the homes being auctioned+buy it now this week and sharing on a new YouTube page for those potentially interested in investing in Detroit. Not only showing the property itself, but showing what's around it and the vibe of the spot---essentially the stuff I wish I could've seen before living here.

If you've got properties you're interested in, but live somewhere else, feel free to inbox me.  If I have time, I'll go and shoot a video for you.
