Not according to this @Joe Villeneuve. The appreciation part was the only thing you addressed. What about the other factors?

All I can say is do your due diligence. There's no real appreciation in Detroit. It's a money pit. Only people that have something to gain,will tell you to invest in Detroit. I'm speaking from experience @Stewart Olney

I did! I was attracted to the price of homes. I made impulsive decisions rather than intelligent ones. I found these properties on the mls. The sfh is located on the east side, and the duplex on the is on the west side. Even if I lived in Michigan I wouldn't accept a house for free. High taxes, high insurance rates, high tenant turnover, corrupt water company. The ingredients to disaster! @Scott K. 

The best podcast I've listened to so far. It's easy to see why this man is so successful in sales. A must listen for sure!

I have two properties in Detroit. My best advice run! Invest in the outskirts of Michigan.

Some of us were born to lose, but built to win. My kids drive me! I want to quit my job one day, and spend more time with them. In due time it'll happen. Keep up the work. A winners attitude is everything in this business.
