“A new program introduced by Mayor Mike Duggan Monday addresses one of Detroit’s largest problems — thousands of vacant and blighted houses — by auctioning off some of the nicest ones to people who want to live in a Detroit neighborhood.   The catch? Unlike the thousands of properties in the county’s foreclosure auction each summer, a winning bidder in the Building Detroit auction must agree to bring the home up to code within six months, and then actually live in it.  Building Detroit is restricted to Michigan residents, companies and organizations who have not already lost a property due to back taxes in Wayne County in the last three years.”
