2597 W 8 Mile Road

Unlock the potential in this solid Detroit property located right on the edge of Ferndale and Royal Oak, offering rare proximity to three major lifestyle corridors—Downtown Detroit, Downtown Ferndale, and Downtown Royal Oak. Whether you’re an investor seeking your next rehab project or an owner-occupant planning to use an FHA 203k renovation loan, this home delivers outstanding upside in a high-demand location. A new roof was installed about 3 years ago and at closing, a new furnace and hot water tank will be installed. Just two blocks from the Meijer-anchored retail complex, you’ll have immediate access to groceries, shopping, restaurants, and daily conveniences—an amenity package that’s hard to beat at this price point. The property needs renovation, but the fundamentals are here: strong surrounding values, high rental demand, and a location that continues to benefit from ongoing reinvestment along the Eight Mile corridor. Perfect for a full redesign, long-term hold, or a customized owner-occupied renovation. After repair values for this area average about $250,000, excellent upside. A strategic opportunity for anyone looking to build equity in a rapidly improving pocket of Detroit.
