Interesting information in the first lot link from the OP.
Vacant Lots - Mixed Use/Multi Family New Build Opportunity. Development proposal must include at least 3 housing units and must include a development plan that includes scope of development [[number of units and total square footage), development cost estimates, proof of funds, and architectural drawings or precedent architecture images. Only complete proposals will be considered. Located in a NEZ [[Neighborhood Enterprise Zone) and qualified Opportunity Zone. Please note that the Detroit Land Bank Authority is entitled to a tax capture for the 5 tax years subsequent to transferring ownership of the property. The tax capture may be incompatible with tax abatements that are otherwise available to the selected purchaser. DLBA will to waive its right to the tax capture for purchasers seeking such tax abatements for a payment of $15, 000 in addition to the purchase price. The waiver may be granted at closing or any time thereafter upon payment by purchaser.
So in that case one can not buy that lot for a single family residence.
To make it even more risky
The Land Bank will issue a Quit Claim Deed as evidence of title at closing, and does not guarantee clear title to the property all properties are sold “AS IS, WHERE IS, WITH ALL FAULTS”. The Detroit Land Bank makes no warranty or representation, express or implied, or arising by operation of law, including, but not limited to, any warranty of condition, habitability, merchantability or fitness for a particular purpose, with respect to the physical condition or status of the title to this property.
