Hi all,

Does anyone have the name/number of an honest, reliable GC/handyman who does trim, painting, drywall, etc in or around the Greater Grand Rapids area? Thanks in advance!

People are bidding way over asking in the Detroit Michigan area

I decided to create a profile as well and introduce myself.I was a Realtor in Michigan for about 4 years and bought and sold homes for others but now want to buy investment property for myself.

Lansing Michigan metro, $650-$750 for a 40 gallon gas water tank.

I got lucky the dumpster is in the driveway already so that might be free for me.20 cy dumpsters are around 350 in Michigan.

I agree with your concerns, @Ryan M. .I think the demand for rentals will remain high overall, because it is probably going to just get harder for first time buyers to qualify for mortgages.

Hi, I have 2 properties in Oak Park MI that I'm about to rent for May:House 1: signing lease tomorrow, in the better part of this small city for $1,700/month (rents for a similar house go for $1,400 - $1,600), market would have been $1,500/month in my rookie estimation but I cut a deal with renter to put in new cabinets and granite in the kitchen and a 2 year contract, with that being said, I need to decide on the appliances, would you go with stainless steel refrigerator/range/dishwasher?

:my insurance never asked, i never asked either..i have tenants with pit bulls, no issues.This is because I just read that Michigan in one of two states (PA is the other) where they've made it illegal for insurance companies to discriminate against certain dog breeds.
