Hi Darryl! I would suggest using a property manager who has a solid leasing team and marketing team. Ask what the average days on market is for properties they manage and see if they can get you a rental estimate on the property to ensure it's at market rent. 

Keep in mind that it is a slower time of year for renting. You can also consider the condition of the property and how updated it is. Typically, neutral-colored walls, cabinets, etc. are more appealing to potential tenants.

Hi Anh! There are a lot of great areas in Detroit to invest in. I'd be happy to chat with you in more detail and provide you with advice for any areas or properties you are interested in.

Here are some things I suggest including in your tenant screening process:

1. Income (3x the monthly rent)

2. Credit score (you can create different requirements for this depending on the rent if you'd like)

3. Criminal background check 

4. Past rental history (no past or current issues with eviction/non-payment)

You could also try working with a property manager to place the tenant.
