So I've heard. It was a bit surprising to me that the process for reclaiming abandoned residences was still in its early stages. That's quick capital for someone -- bank, municipality, whoever -- and a cheap place to live for someone else. And, yeah, obviously a lot of those places are really nice for the auction price you'll get. Urban Detroit's not a bad idea for a young family or a couple of empty nesters looking to downgrade.
