If so would you be willing to share your experience - how it worked, how long it took, how you decided what type of zoning to ask for, etc.

The answer would be partially dependent on what are you looking to get out of it for rent and what type of risks are you comfortable with?

I’m slowly learning how to identify soil types but like you said….we can’t afford to be wrong right now  jurisdictions are different all over the US.. many still just use perk tests  others do the soil samples so you just have to deal with your current area and regulations.

@Jay Hinrichs @Jonathan Greene @Nicholas L.you have all helped me to really consider what type of challenge / path I want to get into, and all this information is excellent.

There are 2 types of people who dog on Detroit.. 1.

In the 6th month, I can say I made some mistakes, when first starting I spent a bit too much money to start the Airbnb, as this was my first deal I paid a little too much for rent for the type of airbnb it is.

I could keep it and rent it, rents are good and in high demand but just looking for a different property type. 

I suspect AHP has most of its investors capital deployed into these type of assets and now it's jumping through major hoops to meet their capital requirements.

My idea is to find another buyer who has cash i.e. their own funds, access to hedge funds etc I just don't know if I should list it on MLS or where to find this type of buyer quickly any ideas for a super quick sale this would be as is the title is already ran and I just did renovations on both properties?

If they do, then you can likely find another tenant for that amount fairly easily, as I would assume the entire town's taxes are up- so if someone really wanted to be in town, that price is the new normal.If your taxes increased that substantially in a C neighborhood, your tenants would way more likely give push back for that type of increase- even though you're not being greedy, you're just imposing the same raise you were given.Often the buyer who had the "well, the numbers are better" mentality is only looking at year 1.
