I personally would not invest in detroit as historically its not a appreciating market and for cash flow and I invest primarily for appreciation - I go off the location location location mantra. 

The main person I talk with just changed shoot me a DM if you want! 

Be prepared to follow up multiple times, using different forms of communication—calls, emails, and if possible, in-person visits to their office.

Are you able to go there in person to build your network? 

Also, long term, I expect Sac will enact tougher restrictions on STR, given the intense housing crunch we're experience, so I personally don't expect that to a be a good long term strategy.

So they price those homes at what a willing homeowner will pay for their personal residence.

Who is personally going to be liable if the guarantees aren't met?

All the add-ons are a la carte so you can definitely get a lot of value based on what you need.One thing I personally don't like is that when tenants pay rent, they are charged $1 per transaction for ACH use.

i would never tell a random person on the internet where they should live. 

Personally, I'd go with the As-Is scenario.
