It could also discourage potential buyers if they realize, let's say to move into EEV, you'll be paying Detroit taxes and whatever other association fees other residents decide upon, just to have comparable services. They'll be looking @ "X" amount of extra dollars they'll have to be shelling out, and weigh the value of the potential purchase. If you have or are thinking of family, extra dollars count.
