I do not miss the petty township and village governments in the East coast.

Once the contract closes and the profit is in the bank I will do a complete review of the ugly house that should have been bulldozed but we turned into the belle of the village. 

Jeff, I have a few condos in Fresno with HOA's... they are located in La Hacienda and Peachwood Village. 

Biggerpockets for giving me a platform to expand        my investing knowledge and network connections.My point here : it takes a village to grow in life and business <- team work

@Cyle Lublin I feel like I missed the boat with most of those areas (including indian village) for super good deals but maybe the new center area is one to be considered, I head that was getting some traction too. 

When: Monday, July 7th Time: 6:30 PM Location: Lucky Lab Pub in Multnomah Village 7675 SW Capitol Hwy.

@George WendtThe areas I would suggest to you in Detroit is in neighborhoods like Rosedale Park, University District, Boston Edison, Woodbridge, Midtown, Corktown, Sherwood Forest, Green Acres, East English Village, Indian Village, Grandmont and few othe r areas that border some of these areas.

My rental houses were considered decent lower middle-class housing when they were built 90-120 years ago, and still are.I'll never see gentrification, but people have been living in these villages for closing in on 400 years now, and I see no reason to think there is going to be a mass exodus any time soon.

With much of the work done to annex into a village with ample services for single family, multifamily or nursing home facility pre-approved and much of the legal work done this could be a great opportunity.

Dear Bigger Pockets Friends and Colleagues:I'm thrilled to announce that my company, Two Bridges Asset Management LLC, of Brooklyn, New York, just completed its second transaction of the year, a 132-unit residential rental property in Simpsonville, South Carolina, known as the Village Park Apartments.
