that we’ve learned in our 24 years, managing almost 700 doors across the Metro Detroit area, including almost 100 S8 leases.

On arrival the house rules also included how things worked in the unit (TV, Laundry, etc.), where things are (cleaning supplies, trash, etc.) and points of interest in the area (such as local attractions and restaurants).As I am new and definitely still learning, if I missed something please let me know.Wish you the best as you get set up!

Even big names like Opendoor who in the past offered little to no compensation has adjusted their marketing to include compensation in an effort to sell homes during this cooler time of year. 

It will take a huge amount of work to upgrade the property which has not been properly maintained, so we'll be doing a lot of infrastructure rehab including adding HVAC/AC, upgrading the wiring, and bringing the old floors back to life.

Starting in Highlands neighborhood (or northside) which used to be a very rough part of town, is now the one of the top 3 most desirable are in the metro and this has slowly trickled down into neighborhoods south.I am an engineer so I love to base my decisions on data, so for example looking at census data, I like to look at % of high income earners in an area to gauge if I should invest or notFor 80204 which includes the neighborhood of Villa Park, in 2010 the % considered upper middle/high income was 4.2% of households. 2022 census says that now it is 40.5%On the other end is 80219 which includes the neighborhood Westwood which would have the lowest income area on my list, in 2010 Westwood had 4% as well, by 2022 it had 21.1% high /upper middle income earners.I have properties in both and tenant applicants are a wide variety (lower income folks on rental assistance to high income earnings wanting to rent in an area before buying a home) so its hard to put a property class in this area.

I see a number of economic development and community vitality initiatives initiated circa 2020, including a community master plan, the development of the MetroHealth complex and associated green space, the Community Housing Plan 2030, 25Connects, Mayor Frank Jackson's Neighborhood Transformation Initiative, and others.

There were a few other things I believe which are destroyed including carpet which was newly installed a week before she moved in, but b/c it is 7 years, I can't do anything about it from what I read on this forum and other people asking these questions. 

I agree with Nathan (including his comment about 50 not being elderly).
