Investment Insights

Based on property information with market context.

This offering is for a vacant development lot in Detroit with a lot size of 0.27 acres. The property is zoned Commercial, and the listing notes that R5 is the applicable zoning designation for the site. The Detroit Land Bank Authority (DLBA) is seeking proposals for small- to medium-scale infill development aimed at increasing housing supply and restoring urban fabric, with an emphasis on density and walkability.

Interested buyers are directed to review the DLBA proposal guidelines and relevant Neighborhood Framework Plans from the City of Detroit’s Planning and Development Department for additional neighborhood context. All offers must be supported by Proof of Funds, with funds meeting or exceeding development costs. The DLBA is entitled to a tax capture for the five tax years following transfer of ownership, and the listing states this may be incompatible with any tax abatement otherwise available to the selected purchaser. The DLBA will review requests to waive its tax capture rights and may require a payment in lieu of taxes based on the development proforma and the effect of any tax abatement.

The address for the property is 885 E GRAND Boulevard, Detroit, MI 48207. BATVAI.
