We live in a pretty rural area (Upper Peninsula of Michigan)...not a lot of options locally.Any suggestions here?

I was unlucky enough to have both appraisal companies have policies against using comps West of Genesee St (180ft away).Appraiser comp: July 2013 .55 mi NE, $36k cash sale in a part of town with higher crime.West Comp: 3/31/14 under .2 mi W sold for $90kWhen asked about redlining, they say houses to the west are not considered comparable sales.

@Lisa Temple am not at all familiar with the Michigan land bank.

HI @Marques Barton, I am also here in Michigan.

I'm looking to wholesale a 2 acre lot in Farmington, Michigan and I don't know how to determine if it is a good deal or not.It used to have an old house on it but that was torn down to build new construction Any ideas or suggestions?

The seller has accepted my offer of 78K on a 3bed 2.5bath home in Grand Rapids, MI.

Are you sure you can collect last month's rent in advance in MI?
