Talked to the security company for the HOA to ask if they had any special policies or procedures.  

This has led me to search for other methods of heating and ways to projects costs back to the tenant and in doing so I have narrowed the selection down to either converting to natural gas or installing a ductless heating AND COOLING system or systems.

I agree with the broker that you met with that your learning will be limited BUT you can sign up on broker's team as an assistant or something in that nature to learn the business.  

The tenants have been understanding & have just put out traps, baits, natural remedies, etc.

Also, White Collar workers that are attracted to Downtown Detroit have  major footprint in Oakland County already, its just natural once people "establish" themselves they look into Oakland County.Livonia will probably feel a large uptick but lots of Western Wayne Cities will become a Detroit dumping ground, at least until you get to Canton, Plymouth, Northville areas which will become even more exclusive.

It is the nature of the beast.

I also want to believe that you know the consequences of not protecting your asset properly, some advice you to insure you rental property and do the transfer of title from LLC to your name but anything short of a comprehensive insurance package is not enough for a rental property with this it can cover for additional increase in construction cost in case of the unexpected or natural disaster. 

@Ron Cornwell AZ is a great place to live, abundant sunshine and lots of natural beauty and recreation to enjoy.As for neighborhoods, let's discuss the potential price range you intend/want to invest in for your primary residence and then we could target a little closer once we have defined some basic parameters.

Any natural appreciation I get is just the cream on top.  

All of that said, that's the nature of really any RE purchase.
