You must have built the trust to know they aren't telling you it's bad so they can take it.

We built a new house 3100sqft, 4 Bed, 2 ½ bath for $310,000.

The plumber removed the debri built up in the sink, which could've help cause the water overflow.But THIS is when things get interesting. 

It might have been more when yours was built.

"@ Frank ChinIn this specific instance, it is undeniable that a house was built on that property more than 15 years ago simply based on Google Earth data, but you can see by the county assessor records that the house on the subject property was built in 1950 and then the property encroaching was built over the property line shortly thereafter, in 1951.@ Matt Devincenzo,From the info in your post, the land does not seem to have officially been taken by AP.

I’ve built a great team, which is imperative, and have systems in place for my local rentals.

If that is the case, can you start to buy places that are built in the mid-90s to stay away from those big issues?

Property values have been appreciating rapidly in recent years, and the city’s population has started growing again—a trend we haven’t seen in decades.I’m also based in California and have been investing in Detroit for several years, so I understand the concerns of out-of-state investing.

Right now what I am looking at is buying homes that are nearing completion so I can inspect them as they are built, and then buying the finished 3bd 2ba home with unfinished basement and finishing the basement myself to rent it as a 6bd 3ba.

Quote from @Jay Bru: Last week Neal and the staff at Gro Capitus let us all know that ALL of our Principals were at risk now in the RTP Nova project of the newly built Townhomes.
