Buying in Detroit suburbs
I'm looking to buy homes in the suburbs of Detroit and then rent them out. I know that some Detroit suburbs are not very safe. Are there better areas or certain zip codes I should focus on? I also need a very good property manager if anyone has any suggestions. Thank you

When investing in the Metro Detroit area there are some great opportunities, but your going to want to look closer than certain zip codes as it can change block to block - house to house. Unless you really learn the areas, you will want to find someone who you can trust and has intimate knowledge of the area.
