Michigan Rental Market Snapshot
State-level data DSCR underwriters use to size Michigan rental deals.
Michigan is a yield-extreme DSCR market. Detroit MSA produces 10–13% gross yields on stabilized SFR but the city's assessment/market spread and condition risk require institutional-quality underwriting. Grand Rapids and Ann Arbor anchor stable LTR demand (medical, automotive supplier, U of M). Warren and the outer Detroit suburbs offer middle-ground cap rates with deeper BRRRR inventory.
Major Michigan Markets We Serve
Active DSCR deal flow across Michigan's core rental markets. Same DSCR math statewide. Credit and equity injection are lender underwriting.
| Metro | Median Price | Gross Yield | DSCR Investor Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Detroit | $165K | 10.0–13.0% | Highest gross yields in any major US metro, institutional-grade underwriting required |
| Grand Rapids | $305K | 6.5–8.0% | Furniture/medical employment, stable LTR demand, premium suburban pricing |
| Warren | $235K | 7.5–9.0% | Outer Detroit suburb, automotive supplier base, deep BRRRR inventory |

Michigan Eviction Timeline & Landlord Posture
How Michigan courts handle non-payment evictions, material to DSCR loss-severity assumptions.
Michigan requires a 7-day notice for non-payment. 36th District Court (Detroit) and circuit-level filings typically schedule hearings within 10–14 days. Among the faster eviction processes in the Midwest.
Michigan Rate Adjustment vs National Baseline
Sub-jumbo Detroit loan sizes track non-QM curves; rent-control preemption and fast eviction process reduce loss severity.
Final pricing depends on DSCR, LTV, property type, and program. Credit is lender underwriting. Governed best-tier floor 5.80% from rate-floors.json as of August 1, 2026.
