Thanks for the referral @Dave Foster.

@Dave Foster .

Internet news is that GM will be closing four plants in MI in 2017 and layoff ~1700 employees, so maybe this is not quite the right time just yet.Don't mean to throw cold water on Detroit but IMO, it's much like waiting for the popcorn to start popping - - it takes awhile.

Who knows, maybe the older kids of the military/government employees will want to have a way to chill out without worry about their parents.An interesting topic, and an interesting niche.

Then start to track down those companies and where their employees hang out (golf courses, country clubs, restaurants, bars, etc. ) In the words of Jim Rohn "You are the average of the 5 people you most associate with" Start being around these folks more and they'll get comfortable with you and you can start to "talk shop" with them.

You can develop a great business that enhances the lives of your employees, vendors and tenants, while maintaining the key strategy of growing profit and equity.

This helps reduce costs (buy in bulk) and creates efficiencies in that  your contractors or employees always know what to install.  

Dave Foster - Thank you for your response.  

You will get a lower quality tenant than you will get in a SFH, but your way to small for onsite employees.
