@Shaun OrtizEvaluating distressed properties remotely can be a little challenging but it's doable with the right tools.

I am just out side of Elkhorn, WI and selling our property the is 5 blocks from the lake.

Choose Multi-Unit PropertiesLook for duplexes, triplexes, or properties with ADUs.

If the property is vacant, you will attract a larger pool of buyers as not everyone looking for a house wants to use it as a rental.

Quote from @Casey Wilson: Hi there, I was wondering if any Detroit-metro experts from the PB community could offer advice on what areas in the Detroit-metro area might be worth exploring for rental properties (ranging from single family homes to 5+ unit apartment complexes).

These properties include different foreclosures and those that sell below their market value.

Depends on which property you pull equity from.

You won't open a "business" account unless your property is held within an entity.

@Cole Starin sometimes it makes sense to sell the WORST property in your portfolio.Another option is why do a LOC on the duplex, when you could just do a $100k cashout refi to pay off all your debt AND keep the property?
