Detroit as we all know is pretty shitty right about now, everything is falling apart, you can buy houses for 50 buck ( alot have back taxes but there are some with no strings attatched) but i was looking and you can pretty much buy entire blocks for a few grand, how shitty really is the 313, my and my buddy might invest some money and buy up some houses, just hold em for 10 years of so and see what happenes, and if you lose your only out a few grand,

my question is how bad is it really, for instance can we roll threw the property with out having to worry, ive been to shitty partys of nyc and i know its pretty scary, will people be slanging out of these condemded houses, pretty much is it by any means safe to go to, any info from people who live out there or whatever would be awesom

Detroit is getting better and better. Slowly. If we didnt have fucking majors that stole from the city, it would be a lot better. Where exactly are you looking at these houses/lots? It could be a really good idea, as long as you clean up the area. The waterfront might be a good idea.

just a short side note that could be useful: try to get a bit informed on city planning for the future, wich areas do they intend to develop, where public money for infrastructers and transportations will be invested, if there are interesting work opportunities for the next years in some particular district... that should give you a hint on where to get better results

the 700 dollar house looks decent. but the other ones you can tell are in the middle of the hood. i would not be caught dead there without a vest and a pistol grip shotty with some slugs.

its not that bad. Sure the buildings are run down and there area people living in the streets all over, but its a place that I feel comfortable walking around in and ive never had any problems. Most people are just trying their hardest to provide for themselves and they aren't looking to cause problems for other people. In fact, Detroit has some of the chillest people i have ever met, most of whom i thought were going to try and kill me.
As for where to invest your money, look to do it in the "Square" made by Ford, Chrystler and Fisher freeways, most of all the people who goto Detroit go here, plus it has most of the foot traffic and lucrative buisnesses

maybe look at things around the ford plant or perhaps Dearborn. Its been awhile since Ive been in that area so i don't know what its like really, but just definitely don't look for anything up North/ Northeast. gets more expensive as you go farther from the city.

Sure parts of the hood are very bad. I have lots of stories. Downtown is nice. Downtown is getting working on getting better. With the two new movie studios, that should help out a lot.

not that bad?

i used to move pounds out of the D and put the brakes on in favor of Cabrini Green in Chi (old housing projects... the cops used to not even go in there) after about a year of dealing with that town.  do what you wanna do, OP, but the 313 is serious shit.  i've had dudes fuck with me and my buddies while we were driving by in the middle of the day because we were a few white kids in their hood... shit'll happen in any big city, but of all the places i've been (a lot of fuckin places), Detroit's got it worse than other cities.

and using the phrase "lucrative businesses" in conjunction with Detroit is a joke.  that town's economy is fucking pathetic.

Only thing that makes them tough is weapons? i bet they would FUCK YOUR DAY UP in a fist fight. more than half the time people get shot and killed in the hood is because the day before they beat the piss out of someone and the kid cant take a beating so he comes back with a 9 or AK.

And you would be surprised how different you would be if you were born in the slums with no father. Ur the deffinition of a racist.

its REAL bad.  you will not see a white person for miles.  you will not see a window without bars on it.  there are lots where the house is just gone or scattered in pieces.  i dont think any of those houses are safe to go to, but might be valuable if they decide to bulldoze the block or something.
anyone hear what they want to do in flint?  theres so many abandoned houses that its a huge waste to run water, electricity, police, etc. all over the city so they want to move everyone to one area.  pretty crazy

Those are all in the hood.  It is unlikely that they will ever gain much, if any value.  If you look at the location, a lot of them are within 3 blocks of the freeway, which says a lot right there.
