Thank you Jamiel! That sounds like it would be eye opening.
My current challenges: I am rehabbing 2 units and working with a contractor. This is my first time ever doing anything like that. I also have a stayover tenant in one of my units, who I took to court to evict and we ended up coming to a short-term lease. 

I do have a question as far as in Detroit, Is it wise to put out a "FOR RENT" sign? It seems like that will advertise to come in and scrap or vandalize...

Anyway, do you have any advise for gathering good tenants in detroit?

Thanks!

Hi BP! 
I have been interested in real estate for years and this summer after listening to a bunch of BP shows,I finally purchased two duplexes. Both of them are challenging and I knew there would be a huge learning curve... Anyway, I am very motivated to make this work...and buy more. I know there is so much opportunity out there if I just have the information and network. I would love to learn from anyone who has been doing this a while... Of course I have a lot of specific questions too. 

Thank you!

impressive! 

Hi! I am very new to BP and real estate. I am a detroit local... bought a nice duplex last week that is occupied. The former owner had the property for a year, and said that they were probably the homeowner's that were foreclosed on. I already had my property manager go down there and leave a card. I spoke to a seasoned Detroit landlord and he told me to leave a termination of tenancy letter and then they will call me. I also am willing to do cash for keys. My question is: Do I leave a note at the same time as the Termination of Tenancy letter saying... "If you leave house in nice condition then I will give you $_____ ? " or what?
