This is unbelievably sad

The median price of a home sold in Detroit in December was $7,500, according to Realcomp, a listing service. Not $75,000. Remove a zero—it’s seven thousand five hundred dollars, substantially less than the lowest-price car on the new-car market.

I may move back soon, if it is still there.

Get used to it.  The rest of the country will look just like Detroit when Obama's finished with the economy.

I mean I understand demographics, but seems unlikely that Arab and African-Americans will make gains in an 8 year time frame.  Perhaps Obama stays in office longer?  Just doesn't seem plausible.

I don't remember a time when Detroit wasn't considered a sh*thole.  What's new?

That's assuming you pay $100 down.  I'm thinking of going with an 80-20 to keep from having to put anything down.  Maybe an ARM would be good here.
