Back then there was no distress and growth was moving outward at a rapid pace and rents were increasing from demand.

@Victoria WintersHello and thank you for your feed back, as well as your rapid response.

The only reason I "won" over about 10 other offers was the offer was reasonable and more importantly I had all the financing in order and was ready for a rapid close.

Uncontested foreclosure can move fairly rapidly, if the attorney stays on top of the timelines.

I love rapid iteration, learning and experimenting.

@Jonathan Warner I would say they are changing, but it's not rapid. 38th and Illinois has been targeted for improvement and I think they put some money into Tarkington Park there.

I'm looking for a drywall contractor/handyman to install a 12' x 12' section of drywall in the bathroom ceiling at my property in downtown Grand Rapids, MI.

There is money to be made in mobile homes on their own land but since the only real value is in the land itself because of the rapid depreciation of the mobile home -- buy and hold is probably the most profitable (of course, this is my personal opinion).

Where you are, isn't changing rapidly so your not likely going to miss too much if you watch for a year or so.

mentioned, and let you know that if it's on the west side of the state (near Grand Rapids or Kalamazoo), you can find greater return on your investment in Michigan.
