I would also suggest a good property manager. Criminal and background checks.

Thanks @Adam Smith

Hey @Byron Chen

Like @George P. Not many people wants to invest here. It all depends on your tolerance for risk. There are some areas that require s a team of bulldozers and wrecking balls. The best I can suggest is to find a house on a good block that needs rehab. Not one that is on a street with alot of vacancies. 

Hey @Mike York

I am a realtor in the Metro Detroit Area.  I am in Detroit everyday and I definitely can assist you with this matter.  It depends on your buying criteria.  The price you buy at determines what areas you can go in. If you're looking for cheap houses your going to get bad neighborhoods.  There are some stable areas in the city. What you want is one bad house on a good block. Not a street that has 4-8 vacancies on every block. You need a local Realtor on your power team that has your best interest. 

The worst that can happen is the taxes.

I am a local agent in the Detroit Metro Area. I am in Detroit everyday. I am available to assist him in acquiring properties. What is his criteria and price range?

Hey welcome to BP. Oakland county is a great place to start. I am a new realtor and I haven't done any investing yet but I am learning. There are some great REIA clubs in the area for you to learn from. Check meetup.com. If you have any questions send me a message.

@James Hutson

Great post. I think becoming a realtor is a great way to learn investing. I got my license recently and it is a great experience. I also have attended my local rei club. you defintely have the inside track on properties and you have access to hud and reo's. If you do become a realtor make sure to choose one that has a great training program.

That's a great area. I will send you the recommendations soon.
