New Member in Metro Detroit, Hello
Greetings all, I'm new to the Metro Detroit market. I've spent the last couple of years working and traveling around Asia, however I'm excited to be back in Michigan. I'm grateful to have a tool like the bigger pockets community and would love to get involved with some meet ups in the area. I plan on getting into the game by purchasing my first rental home soon. I would love to get in touch with other investors in the area to hear about your first purchases, any and all advice is welcomed!

@Dion Boose welcome to the forums. Redford is actually a good rental market so you have deals right in your back yard. Working with property managers, I've heard the 48239 zip code is a lot easier to rent than the 48240 area. I haven't personally bought anything in Redford, but as a realtor who works with a lot of investors I have got to know the hot rental spots. I just put one under contract with a client in the 48239 area-his second one in the last 30 days-which Leads me to my next point. First deals are exciting and scary at the same time for a lot of people. I took forever to jump in but was glad when I finally did. When the numbers work, they work. But with so many investors buying rentals in michigan, it is driving market values back up. So now really is the perfect time to jump in. If you ever have questions or would like help finding properties I'm always happy to help out. Best of luck to you.
