I got attracted to the Detroit area for real estate investment because of affordability and amazing cash flow.

If so, 30 minutes from the college is a long distance to attract students.

Posting ads of houses that you don't have on Craigslist or here on BiggerPockets as bait to capture buyers for your list. Is this practice ethical or unethical? Furthermore, does it work to secure a buyer for when you...

We had it listed with the local hot shot realtor (and she is great but no offers..) for three months..so we went back to FSBO to lower the price to what we felt was very attractive..and our realtor agreed..nice price.

I would certainly make your property look top notch so you attract the best tenants.

This neighborhood is a smaller one but developers are all over it turning it into a paradise for urban millennials who make good money freelancing or working from home, as it has an awesome walkable area and doesn't cost nearly as much as the more developed neighborhoods.    

It has been for several years and likely will continue with the attraction of jobs / population growth.  

I say in general because if the apartment is located near colleges for instance or in attractive downtown areas where millennials want to be, a higher mix of one bedroom and studios can work and may be the play for that submarket.

Michaela, I really want to hear more.I am very attracted to rooming houses myself.My reasons:I work with several homeless organizations, as a volunteer.

Just imagine how much tenants will be attracted to your vacancy with the help of this feature.
