The Best & Worst of Detroit Investing

[Lauren Reed]

Hi Fellow BP Members!

I am interested in learning and investing in Detroit and surrounding areas. I grew up in Detroit and love so much about the city. I have been away from the city for about 12 years and now want to move back towards the area and start to invest in the homes in the area. I love the structures of the homes, and vast architecture of the many neighborhoods, but I am not sure of the best locations to start looking.

I would love to hear from anyone that has had some experience investing in Detroit. What were some of the best and worst locations you investing in? What stood about about the neighborhoods and would you invest again or avoid? I would love to hear about any successes, troubles or any advice as a newbie investor looking to take on this big city.
