Yea that's part of my question, can I offer a 3+ mortgage position? 

I am a life long resident and have seen many positive changes to the city.

Tell us about the deal with real numbers and you will get some good actionable advice.

With that said, congrats on taking action!

Consistent action, right?

In short, put yourself in the other person's shoes - would you want to be in the 2nd, 3rd, 4th and etc position?!

I know this topic has a lot of forum questions dedicated to it already, but my go-to resources direct mail list resources seem to be set-up differently then in the past.I have used Reonomy and List Source previously for direct mail leads with good enough results that I'd use them again, however Reonomy has just recently been forcing an annual contract instead of monthly which is WAY too costly for what I need, and List Source has split up the commercial properties list differently then the last time I used them and almost all of them are listed in "Commercial: miscellaneous" with every other property types, and I have tried filtering differently with no positive results.My goal is to get "true ownership information"(Names, Addresses, Phone Numbers of people who own LLCs & INCs), but for now this is a one time thing, so I don't need an annual contract, and I don't want to pay thousands for Co-Star for an entire year or something.I do have TLO, however pulling multiple owner's information is very time consuming, so I'd like to do this only for a few select properties.Long story short, I'd settle for any ownership information whether it's company data or not, but I'd like to do a one time deal and get 500-1000 leads.

Without Action, knowledge is not power.

Thanks guys, it's reassuring to find others in the know who hold a positive light to investing in Detroit, there are pleny of doom-and-gloomers out there, thats for sure!

If it's too much to ask an investor to buy half, consider enticing them by offering more of the rental income for the first year, if you can be in a position to do so.I've had mixed results working with family on real estate issues in times of need.
