A stone’s throw from bustling West Vernor Hwy. destinations such as E & L Supermercado and Detroit Cristo Rey High School, and minutes from Clark Park and I-75, this expansive four-family brick home offers classic architecture in the heart of one of the city’s most vital neighborhoods. Each unit in the complex is two stories, with kitchens and common areas on the first floor, and two bedrooms and a full bathroom on the second floor. This 1914 property has begun the gut rehab process, but still needs extensive renovation. The purchaser should plan on completing many improvements, including bathroom and kitchen construction, plumbing and electrical improvements, drywall work, wood refinishing, and masonry work, among other projects, but will be rewarded with a stunning property in a strong rental market. Two units of this property are severly structurally damaged, and so the DLBA urges purchasers to read the structural and mechanical systems inspection reports before bidding.

Please note that the rehab cost will often cost more than the winning bid price. Failure to bring a property up to code within 6 months will result in forfeiture of property (9 months for historic properties). Auction dates are subject to change. Check the site regularly to be aware of any schedule changes.
