Now it’s probably the Midwest,But my the time you get to the Midwest and establish a footprint and “street credibility” with the brokers and sellers another market may be strong.If you are going to invest out of area, you will need to spend “face to face” “boots on the ground time” there.

Most will never understand the hard work, sacrifices, risks, and stress that comes with building a successful business of 28 units from the ground up.

I don't need to compete against other investors in my stomping grounds... lol we will be neighbors need month more than likely

Wouldn't this be grounds for an insurance company to deny your claim?

I've been investing there personally since 2019 and own 12-doors in Detroit proper.I lived on the ground there from 2017-2022 but now live back in California.To answer your questions... yes, you can still find cash flowing deals in Detroit.

But  if you can do ground up ADU addition for $100k then it might add that value.  

So, if 25% of potential buyers eschew the concept of solar panels the demand doesn't drive up the price in the same way an above ground pool doesn't add appreciable value.

Alternatively, you might want to travel to Mexico and check for yourself on the ground.

After  3.5 years we have permits for a 17 unit redevelopment project.We had hopes that we would break ground within a year of buying the property....that fell by the wayside for 2 reasons:1) we had worked with the city to increase density through an affordable housing scheme that did not go as planned.

In theory they've tried all they can and are stuck on stupid feeling there life is about to be burnt to the ground.
