Detroit market context

Real estate + rental framework

Median 1BR rent: $950. Michigan Landlord Tenant Act. Wayne County property taxes run about 2.8% effective (high due to underlying tax base issues). Purchase prices are among the lowest of any major US metro. Cash-on-cash returns can be exceptional, but neighborhood selection matters enormously.

Economy + tax load

Median household income: $37,700. Top industries: automotive (Ford, GM, Stellantis), healthcare, defense. Michigan income tax 4.25% flat. Detroit city income tax 2.4% resident, 1.2% non-resident.

Regulatory notes

Michigan Truth in Renting Act. Detroit business licensing at city level. Rental Certificate of Compliance is required. Adoption still lags in some corridors.

Climate + seasonality

Cold winters (severe wind chills common), humid summers. Furnace and boiler service is critical. Snow removal is a viable seasonal business.

Local flavor

Corktown, Midtown, Downtown, University District. The redevelopment areas run different economics than the rest of the city. Grosse Pointe (suburb) is entirely its own market.
