My team on the ground there handles everything from sourcing deals to renovation, and we've worked with hundreds of investors each year to make these properties cash flow.We’ve built up some solid relationships in Detroit—whether it’s general contractors, agents, or property managers who understand the ins and outs of Section 8.

My recommendaiton would be to build the ground level as a "wet basement".

I’d be happy to answer any questions you have or help you with any thing you need as far as property management, contractors or Boots on the ground.

So, if 25% of potential buyers eschew the concept of solar panels the demand doesn't drive up the price in the same way an above ground pool doesn't add appreciable value.

Wouldn't this be grounds for an insurance company to deny your claim?

Drive that thing into the ground and replace it with something real fancy in about 20 years!

Right now people are making money on ground up construction.

But be very careful who you lease it to, the wrong person may run it into the ground within a year.

Now it’s probably the Midwest,But my the time you get to the Midwest and establish a footprint and “street credibility” with the brokers and sellers another market may be strong.If you are going to invest out of area, you will need to spend “face to face” “boots on the ground time” there.

Hunker down, regroup, save some money, live frugally, get grounded.
