In celebration of Veterans Day, the Detroit Land Bank Authority is excited to announce a new Veterans Discount Program allowing eligible U.S. Veterans to receive a 50% discount on select Auction Properties. For specific details please view the Veteran Discount Purchaser information online by selecting Discountsunder the Resources tab.
Built in 1941, this charming, Bungalow-style house could make a lovely home for a variety of potential buyers. With over 1,000 square feet of living space, the property features include:
Front porch

Spacious rear yard
Located within the Butler neighborhood, purchasers will enjoy many area amenities, such as:

Purchasers should plan on making a range of repairs to the property, and bidders are strongly encouraged to review the attached Inspection/Condition Report for more detail. Please also note that at closing the purchaser will be responsible for paying all properly-assessed property taxes not otherwise exempt pursuant to the statutory authority of the Detroit Land Bank.
Finally, please note that any discounts on the purchase (i.e. the city employee discount) will be granted at the time of closing on the sale. The purchaser will be charged $1,000.00 upon winning the bid, regardless of any discounts.
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.
