Detroit Houses = $1

One dollar can get you a large soda at McDonald's, a used VHS movie at 7-Eleven or a house in Detroit.

The fact that a home on the city's east side was listed for $1 recently shows how depressed the real estate market has become in one of America's poorest big cities.

And it still took 19 days to find a buyer.

Going from your initial quote, at what 7/11 can you buy a USED VHS from?

I've never seen one. :1orglaugh

Even at a $1..... It's in Detroit. I'd hold out... I think it can go lower.

BradM 09-08-2008 04:01 PM

Buy for $1, rent for $6 a month. Good luck collecting the rent though.

Flip that House

klaze 09-08-2008 04:04 PM

Detroit is EXTREMELY fucked up.

Houses have such little value a lot of people just up and abandon the house.. Don't even bother trying to sell it or anything..

detroit has very high taxes, they probably had to pay $1 plus a bunch of unpaid taxes/water bill. usually the banks will have to pay it at closing out of their price, but that obviously isnt going to happen.

brand0n 09-08-2008 04:20 PM

so why not buy a few blocks and just sit in em?

Even if u have to will em to your great great grand kids, profit?

Yeah, I'd be afraid to send in my $1.

They could put your name on the deed then send you a bill for $120k to pay for all the
legal "mumble jumble" needed to actually possess the home.

actually in detroit they just take the house from you if you get behind in taxes for two years, but you cant close on it without the taxes and water bill being up to date.

Plus people are animals.

I recently had a home like that....family member died....people broke in like 5 times....first the rob the place....then smash things.....then after its empty....they break in again and take all the copper......then break in again to cut the sink faucets off.....then after doors are basiclly sealed shut they still try to break in...

Ended up GIVING the house away!

Fire is the cleanser. Burn the whole place to the ground and start fresh.

That's what "Devil's night" is. It's one of those holiday's not really celebrated (or even heard of) elsewhere, but it's not uncommon in Detroit. The land that a lot of the houses sit on (excluding those with unhealthy levels of soil toxins), is worth more than the structures. The taxes are shit though.

Did anyone hear about the house in Pontiac a few years (5+), that was torn down by accident? It was the crackhouse next door that was supposed to be torn down, bu apparently the whole neighborhood was so bad that when there was a mixup, they couldn't tell the difference. There was a lawsuit (of course), but I never heard the outcome.
