If you want to gamble with your money, go to Las Vegas.

There is a difference between investing and gambling/speculating.

For example, while very popular south of the border, it's typically detrimental to hold property in a corporation up here particularly from a tax perspective.

@George WendtThe areas I would suggest to you in Detroit is in neighborhoods like Rosedale Park, University District, Boston Edison, Woodbridge, Midtown, Corktown, Sherwood Forest, Green Acres, East English Village, Indian Village, Grandmont and few othe r areas that border some of these areas.

One is in Northeast Philadelphia like on the border of frankford and northeast philly.

Hello All, Can anyone offer me insight on the Harper Woods, Michigan market (a suburb just north of Detroit that borders Grosse Pointe Woods)? 

To me, that's gambling, and while I don't mind gambling on occasion, I don't do it with with my investment money

My initial conversation with the owner of the property revealed that there are utilities at the street bordering two sides.

If you are going to have any problem with lining it up or color differences definitely go with a border before you go the rest of the way up. get the exact tile name too because not all white is the same color..

I've spent a fair amount of time in SoCal, from LA County down to the border and I really LOVE that whole area!
