Other than that, the city is largely residential with many jobs focused around providing for those residential needs such as the service industry sector, home repair, construction, etc.

(@Jonathan Greene DM us if you'd like to chat about them)Regarding turnkey in Metro Detroit, haven't seen anyone do it the right way:( We've picked up dozens of their clients that fire them due to poor tenant performance and nonstop repairs on their "turnkey" properties. 

Are there communities where you can acquire homes for around $100K or less AS IS that will have After Repair Values of $170K or more.

Initially after management fees, repairs and PMI i was losing about $250 per month.

This was a few years ago, but at that time as I recall they were looking to do more long-term property leases over owning properties and doing pretty landlord friendly leases where they would do repairs and even pay property taxes. 

Finding an agent, finding contractors, overseeing repairs, finding a property manager, finding tenants, etc.

We do that all the time for inspections or to make repairs. 

@Derek Buehner Repairs made to your primary residence while living there generally aren’t tax-deductible.
