@Dean Harris amazing! We’re flying in the first week of May. You have some free time for a quick meeting with the team? 

@Vanessa Thomson - Hi Vanessa. I'm not sure if you're still looking to invest in Detroit or not, but I made a YouTube channel specifically to help investors like yourself steer these murky areas in Detroit. There's still risk (obviously), but with someone giving you a heads up on the new areas, you'll be good.

@Melanie Murphy - reaching out to you now

@Drew Sygit Thank you sir! I've got a property or 2 coming your way soon. Also, I added you to my Detroit contact list on that Detroit Investing course I told you about. Hopefully you'll get some good leads and provide value like you always do :) 

Hey everyone! My name is Emilio. I'm a wholesaler/investor/YouTuber in the Detroit market. I'm expanding to the Memphis market and plan on replicating what I have in the metro Detroit area to the Memphis market. My partner and I are heading there next month and our goal is to meet up with cash buyers, wholesalers, agents, property managers, etc...

We want to provide value to you whether it be to providing inventory, selling your inventory and even provide free education such as presentation on wholesaling, creative financing, private money and so on. Anyone want to meet up?

Hi James,

I'm coming in next month to visit the area. Is this still cancelled? 

@Peter O. if you ever come to Detroit you have to go to @Wendy Patton MREI meetings! Great place to network and learn.

@Arsen Atanasovski - hey Arsen. Is this an off-market apt? I’d like to see it. Moving a 124 unit in Inkster and looking for more to move.

@Israel Gonzalez what’s up Israel! Number #1 rule for investing in Detroit - zip by zip code, block by block, street by street. Number 2 Rule - get a team or boots on the ground.

When you do come to the city - use the Top Down Method for evaluating a neighborhood if you come to the city. When driving the streets and you see houses, start from the top (Roof) and work your way down. Notice little things like new roof? Fresh plywood on the house? New window stickers? Dumpster in the driveway? Then drive up and down the streets in a certain neighborhood are start counting up all the rehabs you see. Some areas have NO COMPS but tons of rehabs happening. That’s a neighborhood that is ready to explode.

@Peter O. Land contract is very common in Detroit. Having a large deposit is good and $20K is definitely a good deposit (not sure the value of the property though). I’ve bought before on land contract and I’m working on a land contract purchase now. If you want to sell anymore on LC let me know.

You prettt much get upgraded from Landlord to Lender.
