@Jonathan Twombly it is a 3 bed plus bonus room its around 1800 square feet. home was built in 2006 it is in a development with a pool.

So now 5 months later with at least 2 more to go, you are out 5 months of rent, $7,000 in legal bills (and counting-we are not even at trial at this point) and by the way, if the tenant wins their case, the insurance company probably will not cover the judgement as it is excluded in the policy.Also, if the tenant decides to call code enforcement and they find mold, now you have to remediate professionally (again not covered by insurance) and it will cost you about $15,000 or more because they have to do the whole building to kill all the mold.Oh, and by the way, the tenant called code enforcement and there is no visual mold but all this is going on anyway.So legally, you may not have to but it will cost you a lot of money when you get a tenant who can play the system.Make the attempt to fix it so you can say you did.Tom

Also, looking for a play on multi-plex.  

It is all about suiting up and playing the game each day till your hard work and intelligent choices brings the money for your cup of Starbucks.

hi there, west of I4 in that area is scary- could be a long term play if the city cleans up the poverty and crime.

Then it begins to play the gamble of how many months does it take for the bank to foreclose on the asset and how many months of rent can you collect in the mean time. 

One of my customers at my work came in playing at my table and have told me that the first one would probably be the hardest then after that, it would be easier to maintain more later on.

@Antonio VicidominiHi Antonio, was just curious on how this played out? 

Detroit is like any other city with it's bad areas with one bonus...it has the extra benefit of the news media's love for the "story", and the "story" being that "one more time in Detroit".
