Market Profile:
The city of Detroit was an infamous city for decades. It rose to glory in the 1950’s as its population skyrocketed from under 500,000 to over 1.8 million. This made it Detroit’s 5th most populous city in the entire country.
Detroit was known for automobiles and Motown and was thriving in the 60’s. Then it began its decline.
The population decreased, home prices fell, and crime rose.
During the great recession Detroit was often in the news for having so much blight due to the large number of abandoned homes in the city, amongst other reasons.
It had a reputation, but nonetheless, investors kept buying up houses from 2008 and beyond.
It’s now considered a great city for real estate investors.
A lot of times we hear the question of “Why would I ever invest in Detroit?”
We can think of a lot of reasons:
- The city is speculated to be in the middle of a “major revival”, as the downtown area has had billions of investment dollars poured into it. Restaurants, shops and markets are popping up everywhere.
- The Detroit MSA has finally stopped losing population. In fact, the UN estimates the population will continue to grow from 2023 onwards.
