This is why the OP would find that a situation where part of his payments were credited toward the purchase places him in a much stronger legal position than that of a tenant.

Any areas where there is stronger sense of, or more proactive community, where people are trying to clean up/out the area even though it may be an uphill battle?

The stronger long-term play would be to perform cosmetic updates on the property for about $10K, refinance at $125K, and find a section 8 tenant paying $1200/month.

Projections are keeping 2021 even stronger than the year we just had!  

From everything I've read and been told by the Hubzu listing agent, there is the possibility that someone could make a stronger offer than mine and they could choose that and kick me out. 

If you are outside of the historic district, I think you will do better to look north near the park, all the way up to 10th as home values, and rents, are stronger there, than the southern edge.  

The economic structure is far stronger in Detroit.

However, these 2 in particular also boast much stronger appreciation potential and lower crime rates than Cleveland, Akron, Dayton, etc.

Certainly stronger than the Rust Belt and not as expensive or up and down as the coasts.

My guess is we add "and/or assigns" to make it stronger in case of litigation?
