Thanks for the reply Drew. I saw a comment of yours on another post and was hoping I’d see you here. 

I’m also in Royal oak, would love to buy you a coffee or a lunch and hear more about your experience as we try to find the right way forward.

Thanks for the responses guys! Yes, I have listened into the podcasts and I'm listening through Brandon Turner's book "Rental Property Investing" now.

Travis - great recommendation, and thanks for putting it out there. I have been watching prices rise over the last 6 years of living adjacent. I think personal circumstances are ready, and I just need to learn and get the local knowledge you mention. Looking forward to getting involved and hopefully snowballing in the next several years!

Hi all, been listening to a variety of information over the last several years I’ve lived outside Detroit. Finally have enough to consider making a play here and looking to find some locals and read further experiences here. 

My hope is to get into something turnkey but not all updated, preferably also into some of the Multi-Family opportunities. Plenty of those in Detroit. I’m in a traditional career now and would love to scale up investing in some real estate over the next several years. 

No specific questions yet, just looking to continue to meet others, hear some experiences, and generally soak up the knowledge here.
