An up-and-coming west-side neighborhood
The Davison-Schoolcraft neighborhood may have fallen on hard times, but long-term residents, first-time homebuyers and investors see potential in its accessibly priced homes and convenient location. With houses starting at $15,000, Interstate 96 at its southern edge and downtown Detroit just 9 miles south, “Now is a good opportunity to look at buying a house in this neighborhood,” says Nikkia Luckett, a broker with United Front Realty. “It’s just a matter of time before it begins to see some of the same success similar communities closer to downtown are experiencing.”

Accessibly priced brick homes
Davison-Schoolcraft offers classic Detroit-style bungalows, colonials and two-family flats. Most homes are close to 100 years old and are separated from neighbors by a single driveway. For homebuyers looking to start from the ground up, many abandoned homes have been torn down and replaced with open lots. Prices start at $15,000 for a two-bedroom bungalow that needs a full flip and can climb up to $150,000 for a two-family unit. Luckett says these low prices are a main draw since the return on investment is high. “You’re going to make money no matter what,” she says.
