What this means for LTR investors
Gross yield of 7.03% is solid - above the 7% threshold most LTR investors target.
Rent grew 5.5% YoY while values moved 5.3%. That gap drives whether yield compresses or expands over time.
Renter share is 28% - a deep renter pool means lower vacancy risk in Michigan.
Median income of $68,505 sets the affordability ceiling on rent growth.
