I hope this paints a clearer picture of why we focus on low-cost micro-flips across the Midwest rather than swinging for grand slams on the more expensive markets. !

The best is when they move in and immediately begin making maintenance demands for things they broke themselves, or because some man they lied about not being on the lease is living there and broke it, or one of their endless supply of children broke it  and it's like you still owe like a grand from your deposit maybe don't take such a tone when you fuss over maintenance issues you created in the first place - but God forbid you withhold whatever pithy deposit they did manage to cough up for damages because they go full throttle Jerry Springer guest in 2.2 seconds. 

I wont say a " Grand Slam " , but more like base hits all day long pushing in the runs . 

I live in the Grand Rapids area as well. 

We have a saying in Mexico that goes: "Pueblo chico infierno grande" (small town big inferno) we all know each other in the real estate industry so I take my reputation very seriously.Correct realtors make commissions, as well as developers make a profit from the sale of the properties.I am all up for respecting, helping each other, and providing valuable information to readers, today is my wedding anniversary and my wife is going to kill me if I spend another hour writing in this forum lol. 

I currently own investment properties in Metro Detroit, Kalamazoo, and Grand Rapids.

I have about 100 Grand in equity in my first property and about 70k saved in cash.Any advice? 

Hi Nedim,I am an Agent and Investor here in Grand Rapids as well.

I kind of think this really won’t have any noticeable effect on prices tbh, and frankly even a 2% reduction in net fees is so minor in the grand scheme of things, I mean 2% movements are basically random statistical noise at this point.

I am staying at Grand Prince and have a chauffeured car however I have been having extreme difficulties with communications.
