Hey guys I got a question about rental real estate. I was thinking about investing in some of the cheaper homes in Detroit. I have construction work history and I currently work for a property management company. I know that most of the 5k and cheaper homes are in crime ridden neighborhoods and was wondering if hiring a private security and a property management company would help lower crime rates as well as help people take care of these neighborhoods. I am currently emailing for prices and have learned through the web that most of these houses were foreclosed on due to not receiving basic government essentials which led to people not paying taxes. Do you think this would help at all if it was affordable. Any feedback would be appreciated.

Hello Everyone,

I am currently a maintenance guy at a property management company. I am looking towards investing in rental real estate in the future. The big thing for Wyoming is mobile homes but I know they do not go up in value so I will have to look for other markets.
