Investment Insights

Based on property information with market context.

Two vacant land parcels, totaling 0.12 acres, are available in Core City. The properties are located at 2005 Poplar and 2007 Poplar. The Detroit Land Bank Authority (DLBA) is seeking proposals for small- to medium-scale infill development. The goal is to increase housing supply and restore the urban fabric, as well as density and walkability. Interested buyers should consult the DLBA's proposal guidelines for new build opportunities. The DLBA also recommends reviewing relevant Neighborhood Framework Plans from the City of Detroit's Planning and Development Department for additional context about the neighborhood. The DLBA is entitled to a tax capture for the 5 tax years subsequent to transferring ownership of the property. The tax capture may be incompatible with tax abatement that are otherwise available to the selected purchaser. DLBA will review requests to waive its tax capture rights and may require a payment in lieu of taxes to approve such requests. The payment will be determined upon reviewing the development proforma and effect of any tax abatement on the purchase and development financing. The lots will not be sold separately.

  • Two vacant land parcels (0.12 acres total) in Core City offered as a bundle.
