Detroit debuts the new house auction site.

It seems to be focusing on East English Village.

From last weeks announcement I assume the Marygrove area [[whre I currently lay my head) will be next.
I may take in some of the open houses.
It's just I'm too nervous to lay down roots here.
Detroit looks like their leadership has righted themselves, but Michigan is just as batshit as ever and I absolutely not willing to go where they've been trying to lead lately. Especially with a house as anchor.
this can be a game-changer

I understand the hesitancy to lay down roots. I wrestled with the same thing before I bought in Corktown. One thing that has me interested are these bid prices. I mean, if it's too risky to lay down roots...it's nice to know you're only looking at $10k for the house + $30k for the rehab.
It's not chump change, but wow, there are deals to be had.
