I am looking for a firm that has experience appealing property taxes for residential homes in Detroit, Michigan.

It is presumed that "Multifamily" housing will have multiple families inside.

@Shay Yao Here are the answers to your questions regarding permits in Gwinnett:Renovating an unfinished basement into living space?  

@Jason Weidmann admire your all-in approach!

Ive been 10 years in.

Great tools out there to evaluate the density of rentals, houses sold/for sale like Zillow and Redfin can give you a great perspective on these and help guide your decisions!

If I put all of my eggs in one basket (Florida in this case), paid off property and a hurricane blows everything away, FEMA is nowhere to be found and the insurance companies take years to pay what little claims they actually do pay, I suffer through it in a blown out house.

For example, if a seller comes to you, looking for you to help them sell their house, your first responsibility is to help them get the most money for their house, and not try to buy their house as an investor for cheaper.

You think it sucks to be a landlord in CA?

We have a couple of houses that we would like to hold on to for now and possibly sell in a couple of years.
