my father has been investing in detroit for 22 years over 100 different properties i am not sure which is the better choice but we always have the tenants fill out an affidavitwater bills in detroit can come in extremely high at times and if the tenant decides to skip out on paying rent and bills, it can cost you thousands if it is under your name and not theirs.

Remember, sometimes what you do today doesn't seem to be working (right now, this second) but it's really just sending boomerangs out there that will come back to you tomorrow or next week.My father always told me to "Study the pros and you can be a pro".
