I don't see large companies moving their HQs to suburbs as they did in the past, but rather closing their branches to centralize in major metros.

I am a newer investor and am looking for a reliable real estate CPA or tax professional in the Metro Detroit area to file my taxes and help with tax planning.

Your backstory sounds familiar.We have a local metro Detroit meetup every month for new investors, seasoned investors and everyone in between.

Where are your properties located in the metro area? 

I am an out of State REI with a property in the Detroit Metro, MI (Redford Township).

Try Lietner Construction, he is out in Gresham but works all over the metro area.

Lots of apartments under construction all over the metro area.

I am in a major metro in Missouri, and I can tell you that most, if not all, institutional investors have put a moratorium on their buying in this part of the country.  

There was a humourous movie about a guy who bought a Paris apartment that gave the owner a life estate....he esentially waited decades for her to die so he could take possession....apparently a somewhat common type of transaction in Paris.

Hello @Albert Hoffman, I would recommend Trevor Throntveit with Exit Realty Metro.
