Experience Investing in Detroit Metro Area?

[Stewart Olney]

Hi,

I'm a newbie living in the Detroit Metro area (Harper Woods specifically). I want to start to acquire rental properties in and around the area starting in the summer and sooner if possible. I am wondering if there is anyone here who has experience investing in and around Detroit. 

I specifically want to know how the experience has been for investors investing in the City of Detroit (as opposed to the surrounding communities) in terms of rentals and flips. Also, does anyone have experience in Saint Clair Shores, Grosse Pointe, Harper Woods, Eastpointe, Roseville, or Warren? (All surrounding communities of Detroit)

How has your investing experience been in the Detroit Metro area?
