The Truth Behind Those $1 Detroit Homes

Downtown Detroit is seeing a revitalization of sorts sparked by Dan Gilbert's $1 billion investment in the area. Since 2010, Gilbert's investment has created an estimated 6,500 jobs in downtown, and, as a result, it's nearly impossible to find a vacant apartment as residential occupancy rates reached as high as 99.4% for the downtown area.
But what about the rest of the city? You can buy a bunch of homes outside of downtown Detroit for under $500 and some are even listed at just $1.
Problem is: these prices are incredibly misleading. The homes are in abysmal condition and there are few city services in and around these neighborhoods.
Detroit realtor John Lewis took us to the Brightmoor neighborhood to show us what these $1 Detroit homes are really like.

@@mbrusyda9437 You do know that 'what people don't want to buy' and 'what people can't afford to buy' are two different things. I commented as a layperson who saw the trend of property developers who kept building expensive properties. They have 'if we build this, people will come' attitude. As someone who live in the city, work in the city, I'd like to remain in the city for convenience. Financially speaking, it does sounds sensible to demolish the buildings and build new. The developers can start from scratch on how they want the new township looks and operate. They might create their own zoning system. However, by building new township, they will also have to provide new public facilities like schools, hospital, markets, fire department, police department etc. Those things needs money and they would pass the cost to buyers of the township.

@imperialsecuritybureau6037 4 года назад

It’s sad from a human perspective yes but architecturally those buildings are pretty shit, and would probably be reaching the end of their natural life-cycles. They’re also wasteful of space. Build some nice brick, stone and wood buildings there which would have low embodied energy and make them several storeys, like Victorian houses in the UK, split some of the bigger townhouses into apartments and then have Detroit redevelop the area itself a bit to create some job opportunities; then you have sustainable and desirable homes which will make the area inherently desirable and give it longevity - just like how it’s worked in London; where the blighted and poor areas are all composed of disgusting and soulless 80s concrete monstrosities, which deprive a neighbourhood of community and beauty and create a dingy backwater full of crime. The architectural value of an area affects how it is lived in, and how an area retains its liveability and viability over the decades and centuries. “Classical” architecture, or any which acknowledges beauty and lineage, will always be desirable and will encourage anyone who lives in it to take care of their valuable homes and neighbourhoods.

@13eckerlosmuerte 5 лет назад

Detroit is now in the negatives and owes the state money for the services that are provided to each home and businesses that are still in operation as well as the electrical, sewage, water, fire and EMS that have to work in this city. The taxes are high to pay back for all of the years the city has been under until it would be successful again. In order for a home builder to market a successful recovery in this area the taxes and livability would need to be high in order for their interest to be paid in full by the owners of the houses that would be built by the developers. What also hurts the city as much as any other is all of the sanctions and anti gun laws that make legal law abiding citizens criminals in that state, so protecting yourself against people whom would be attracted to the higher end development would be at risk for theft and robbery than any other place.

I live very close to here. It’s amazing how a few miles, or even blocks one direction or another look totally different. Detroit’s biggest problem is it’s too big. How many homes in that area do you think legitimately use water? let alone current in their billing. Yet, the city must maintain all the infrastructure. Detroit needs to pay people to centralize and let some of these areas go back to nature. .

Can people find jobs there? Crime? Considering the rental and real estate situation in this country right now, I can only suspect that people priced out of markets in so many other more expensive places will start to give blighted cities like Detroit a serious look. With the cost of buying one of those cheap houses, taxes, and spending tens of thousands of dollars to rehab the house itself, a person could still have a livable house for under $40,000 and a mortgage of only a few hundred per month, which is practically unheard of anywhere in the country. But nobody wants to live in super cold Michigan, and if there are no jobs and crime is bad, there is no point.

One specific thing the Detroit tyranny did to the uncle was to force him to replace the sewer line from the house to the street. The tyranny claimed they had a complaint from someone from within the uninhabited neighborhood. The uncle was faced with a long-term and expensive losing battle against the tyranny or replacing the sewer line. Of course, the tyranny insisted he use a "certified contractors" for 3 times the price to replace the line.

"The whole city is not like this." That is true. However it is also fair to say this is true for a good 85 percent of residential areas. I lived on Warren Avenue so I speak from first hand experience. it would not surprise me for this to turn into a ghost town within a couple of decades. It is filthy dirty, the streets and infrastructure are in horrible condition, and is the only place I have ever lived that walking down a suburban sidewalk that I had to watch out for shards of broken glass from empty bottle of cheap vodka and rot gut whiskey, used needles, and used condoms. Not to mention, watching out for the cracked and generally worn out and broken bits of sidewalk itself and of course-the city has no money to fix any of it. The whole city with the exception of the commercial area and a small section of downtown and one wealthier neighborhood are all that remains worth trying to salvage-and it simply is not likely to happen in the long run. Unless they get a massive bit of luck on par with diving intervention-this city is a wasteland and likely to remain so.
