There are always good deals to be found in any market.

This sounds way too simplistic for something that involves the government.

If the house is built well and has multiple offers the price goes up and you pay more.A good agent knows all of this and can deftly manage the offer, transaction and can make sure you don't over pay for a building that's been sitting, or under bid by a $1000 and lose your dream home.The best agents are skilled at extracting more information from buyers than most so they can put just the right offer down to win the deal.  

Investors get deals because they solve problems and take on headaches others won't.

The worst part, however, is you've made the government your partner. 

Prices are still affordable compared to many other markets, but they’ve also appreciated meaningfully over the past few years.If you’re serious about out-of-state investing and open to Detroit, I’m happy to share resources or help however I can. whats everyones take on the new rules for section 8 etc food stamps and other government safety net programs..
