when you have somebody willing to pay over 2.5m you are going to get people that want in river oaks, blvd oaks , west u maybe, memorial hedwig etc...not a condo...yes i know condos trade and yes i know that theres a ton being built...but those are not factors working for you.right now oil and gas execs have a lot of risk on the horizon, they are your target market in my opinion.  

Use top quality materials, you want this to last a long time.If the spawling is bad, chip off all the loose and soft parts and fill the voids with concrete, then skim coat the entire outside.

The living room has oak floors which are in decent shape.  

What price for homeowners insurance should I be paying for a duplex in oak park Michigan metro Detroit

As it was we ended up having to chip in about five k of our own.  

I am a foreign investor that invest in Michigan market in Detroit Oak park Southfield and Farmington.In the last time my rehab contractors are making me a problem and they are very busy and don't have a time for me. 

Prior to the dotcom bust, I worked for a large tech company, not a dotcom company, but one that actually made silicon chips. 

The deal:1987 Oak Creek 3/2, ~1300 sf double wide. 

The faucet is often in the way of grinding wheels and chisel, so in one case I had to remove the faucet, and really covered the sink so it doesn't get chipped and dented while I was cutting away. 

I either got paid off and nice return or ended up with property.. had both happen.One of my clients in Oregon is a car dealer and has a large finance component.. they do exactly what you do with the chips in the cars etc.
