Welcome to the community, Evan!

I’ve got a few rental properties under my belt and am now diving into value-add multifamily projects to grow my portfolio.My focus is simple: build wealth, create opportunities, and enjoy the process along the way.

I focus solely on Detroit proper because, in my experience, the rent-to-price ratios, opportunities for value-add projects, and overall market potential are much stronger there.That said, Detroit is a nuanced market.

And a SUSTAINABLE approach to rental property ownership. 

It’s best to have a multi-channelled approach (sms, email, ringless voicemails, and AI voice calling).

A balanced approach often works best—consider splitting your cash flow between paying down the mortgage and investing in diversified assets.

Bedroom community.

I would focus my attentions here and try to stay local (within a 4 hour drive) as the POH rentals require more engagement.Financing is a tough deal... but sometimes you can find those Mom and Pop operations with quite a few POH rentals that will work with seller financing on a reasonable interest rate with a balloon within 5-7 years. 

Would you be willing to share how this approach has worked for you?

You want to focus on areas where you have a competitive advantage (you have lived there or you have family and friends there) and then compare those areas against widespread list of great areas to invest.Good luck!
