The properties are limited to certain areas of the cities.  

@Shaheen Ahmed you can find all the info you need online if you know where to look - except that the City of Detroit Assessor's Office is consistently undervaluing properties to keep property taxes attractive for investors - to keep improving the city:)Here's some copy & paste infor for Michigan Property Taxes that you might be able to use as a template for other areas - or you could start investing in Detroit:)----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Michigan has some of the most complicated property taxes in the USA.

Hi Guys, I am looking to buy a multifamily in Jersey City for STR, any suggestions what area will be good for STR and weather number make sense at this time.

Most cities will have a process to unlock the lots..

And given that, in a major city, there are hundreds of houses put on the market weekly, you need a method to efficiently screen properties to make sure they won't bleed money before you spend time analyzing, touring them ect. 

Kansas City is a great city to invest in.

Yeah, most cities/areas have a dedicated FB group like "XXX area real estate investors group" or whatever.

It took five months to do the work on the home in Yuba City CA.

I would be delighted to connect if you have any questions or if you're considering exploring the Kansas City market.

You also will face a byzantine, corrupt, and incompetent city government.
