  • Not even for free.

    Not even if you pay me 100 000$.

    My children lives are priceless.

  • @MMA94NYC but how long would you stay alive - especially if you're white ?

  • '

    what is a big wrong with this city of detroit,,,

    no people homes,,,

    no businesses,,,

    no schools,,,

    no stores,,,

    because of bad governement and UAW are ruins all city of detroit

  • @bestamerica baloney

  • Michigan can be very succesfull if people were willing to invest ..people should blame themselves for michigans downfall

  • Here in Australia those houses would cost $300,000 or more in that state the medium price to buy a house in Australia $410,000, even shit suburbs homes go for the high $200,000. So this is a bargain i buy lot of these and go nuts with a bulldozer leave the land vacant and turn it national park with walking trails and wildlife or grow vegetation to help feed 7 billion people as food is starting to expensive. A loaf of bread here is $4

  • i feel real sorry for the people living around those houses because when you think about it all those abandoned and ruined 1 dollar houses are completley trashing their property values so they try to leave not only is now one going to want to move in by all those vacant houses, but they aint getting shit for their house assuming it sells

  • Damn people why not do something with it? Start a community again. Get a few hippies down there and turn it over. A carpenter, a fisherman, a few gardeners that can help everyone grow their own food, a blacksmith etc.

  • Damn my city is gone down

  • I'll take 5 lots please! I dont care if it's nasty, I know construction companies that will tear down all that crap and I will build my castle.

  • What street is this?

  • @HarryTruthman well...idk about khan but yea thats basically what i said in my original comment...this is what happens when you implement bad policy...i just didnt use those exact words

  • @HarryTruthman well...those who built the houses were probably compensated decently...most construction/carpentry jobs pay fairly well...i used to be in the trade...as for those who bought them...that is an investment...if it gains or looses value is the risk someone takes when purchasing

  • @HarryTruthman also...lets try to keep on 1 train of convo here...what i feel about work ethics and what you think is going on with the economy being caused by other nations(our economy affects theirs more than vice versa btw) are not the topic for this video...its what detroit looks like today...you remember that right???...the now mudhole that used to be a shining star in america???

  • @HarryTruthman are you really tryin to go there...look here numbskull...i never once said that nor did i imply that...i simply said I feel that how hard you work is equivalent to how you should be compensated....i never once said thats how it is...just how i see it should be...not equal to everyone because there are to many slackers out there who go to work just to be there and get their check not giving 1/2 a shit that they are there to actually work so they dont do a good job

  • @HarryTruthman your kiddin me right??? im one of the VEW few actual producers in this fukt up country of ours...and its not other countries doing it to us...its the lazy fuktards in this country who want gobs and gobs of cash to do service jobs....srry to tell everyone but i see pay as something you earn more of with how hard you work....dont give me that shit

  • @HarryTruthman i honestly dont believe that...ive seen too much of the equality for everyone crap from them to believe that...this spreading the wealth around is nonsense...we all have equal rightsin the court rooms...that is what is meant in the constitution...some people are smarter than others and some people are stronger than others...should we force them to be surgically altered and make everyone just as dumb and weak as the slowest and weakest person to satisfy equality??

  • @HarryTruthman i see you removed your comments..i take it you did look at my other comment and saw i did give credit to the politicians...i give a bit of the it to corporations but only in the sense that they were basically forced out by the local gov. raising their costs so much(to fund all the promises that ended up being broken) that it was no longer profitable for them to be in that area...thats what the left doesnt like...business is around for profit...not to supply jobs...they hate profit

  • @HarryTruthman yea ok...your off on another story bro...this is the detroit in shambles video...not how the nation is goin to hell in a handbasket because of the politicians...but if things keep going more and more to the left this is what the whole country will look like soon

  • none of those houses are worth $1..

  • Spend $ 1 on a house, another $ 2500 to it up and $ 6000 on guns and ammo.

  • @ItalianoAmericano you're an idiot

  • so sad that Detroit has gotten this bad

  • welcome to a city run by liberals!

  • @Craigitzy11 welcome to a city full of niggers.

  • @ItalianoAmericano LOL' I tell my nigger wannabe son that all the time...It is a sickness these blacks and their damn habits.

  • @gazaking765 im sorry for your son having to be raised by u..

  • @DareDevilDoon My son is grown,he became a wannabe nigger like his loser friends,,like I stated it is a mental disorder,notice I said nigger not black,and that is what Detroit has a nigger mentality...

  • @ItalianoAmericano we like living in your neighborhood!.................­dumbass!

  • @ItalianoAmericano and for just $1

  • I think I read the city offered the houses for $1 to cops,firemen and nurses but its too dangerous to move in there.

  • Soon many more American cities will follow Detroit.

  • Wow that's depressing

  • Face it in America white people are vastly becoming the minority

  • Forlmp White people would/have butchered raped and murdered other white people just for fun so what's your point.

    The butchering/murder thing is a white accaload lol

  • this is what happens when you promise people the world and tell them they wont have to work for it...people stop working and rot sets in

  • @bklee83 there is no work moron

  • @bikegirl2 yea...there is a reason for that...its all relative...when you tell people they dont have to work for their living they stop working...once enough people are leaching the system it becomes unsustainable and the whole thing begins to collapse because you have to take more and more money from those who create jobs to sustain the leaches, which makes them want to leave...thus no jobs now even for those who WANT to work

  • THUG LIFE!

  • Well, I know where I'm going when the zombie apocalypse hits.

  • @ItalianoAmericano Rofl. Not all rap talks about this. Look up Fort Minor for one of the many many many rappers that rap about things other than when they lived in the ghetto.

  • $1 house $100 000 investment in weapons and security to protect it from the blacks.

  • @ForImperium Yes because only blacks cause problems... And i´m sure they are to blame about the causes of this situation... Keep your ignorant remarks to yourself...and to your probably ignorant friends...

  • Yes, because it is certainly the whites whom are creating the atmosphere of crime in Detroit. Please ignorance is bliss.

  • @ForImperium Protect it from the blacks like I have to protect my 8 year old daughter and son from the whites. I am in the Philippines at the moment and the going thing is the Whites who like to come here and have sex with underaged girls. These are professional whites. All of these SE asian countries know that when a white is in town gaurd your kids. This is your reputation. You are sneaky lil bastards who do your dirt in secret. Dirty child molesting bastards.

  • The suggestion that whites are all sneaky lil bastards is hardly warranted, whites statistically conduct pedophilia per capita on the same rate of all other races. They are perhaps the only ones who can afford to travel to your armpit of a nation to practice their perversions hence your observation; it's the only reason why anyone would ever want to go to the Philippines.

  • @ForImperium Don't talk to me about statistics. Ever see how to catch a predator? Look at the statistics for that show. They're out there catching the big fish. And the majority of the fish is white! Over 90% of them! in your own country! btw...theres chinese, Koreans and even Africans here in the PI, but the ONLY ones known for having sex with 7 -12 year olds are WHITES. u can make all the excuses you want but those are the facts. Your school teachers, lawyers etc. Its in ur blood imo

  • So your 'facts' come from American television shows, statistics offer a comprehensive display of the criminality of certain communities. If white people are so criminal, why are people literally dying to get to the United States and Europe, most of which are blacks and non whites?

    Why are blacks escaping Africa? Look at African Americans, only 12% of the US population and yet account for 50% of the prison population. 90% criminals white in Russia, no shit when like 95% of Russia is white.

  • @ForImperium Become are escaping tyranny and looking for liberty. Liberty is found in the countries you mentioned. But now that the world is becoming a democracy, there is no need to run to other parts of the world who allow freedom to exist. You're a dumb stupid uneducated redneck. You don't know jack shit. You speak on a grade school level. But the whole racist theory is based on ignorance. Its just sad seeing your kind popping up still in different places on the net.

  • @ForImperium I just did some research on Africa and nowdays you have people "escaping" to Africa. Look up "Poor whites in Africa". There whites live in the ghettos and blacks are in the upper middle class because liberties have been restored to the people. They are holding businesses and investments. Creating jobs etc.... to the point that many people consider Africa as the next China. Democracy breeds freedom which breeds success no matter what race you are. Liberty and free economics

  • These farmers have been displaced due to racist affirmative action policies; clearly you are misinformed. People are escaping to Africa, the poorest continent on the globe? The stupidity of your statements makes one resolve that any communication is fruitless. Maybe I should hire your kind to clean my apartment, that's all you are good for; or throw your sister in and she can give me a massage with a happy ending. GFYO

  • @ForImperium You have more browns in the US and its killing you that Freedom has been extended to all people. You're now just a number. You racist fuck. Globalization is an enemy of the racist. You have no power. Things will NEVER go back to the way they were. There is an equalizing in this world and theres nothing you can do. The white boy racist have lost his grip on society. The world is getting better.....And the UK, the US was based on a lie. And now you're forced to recognize it.

  • I'm not from the US, I couldn't care is they are losing their world status. You're an idiot.

  • @ForImperium Your pasty mother is an idiot. And if she's ever in the Philippines let her know she'll get raped, buchered and killed, simply because she gave birth to a pasty fuck like you. Tell her that for me.

  • Thanks for satisfying the stereotypes of non-whites, keep it up!

    You will rape, butcher and murder a woman simply because she is white, even by your own words.

    This is why your nations are backwards and white nations are not; it's your race. Why else is Europe and European descended nations the best in the world?

  • With this music choice, and all this plight, makes me think this is a video of iRAQ. lmao

  • THE U.S. SHOULD JUST GO AHEAD AND BOMB THIS SHIT WHOLE CITY!!!

  • @cjzzzzz  QFT, wipe it off the map and start over.

  • At a dollar it is overpriced.

  • @surfstomp LMAO

  • seriously these are 1 dollar?....hmmm....theoretical­ly a large group of investors could pool together and buy up tons of property in D. and make a killing when the market recovers.....

  • Democrat policies are amazing at helping poor people... how could this ever happen in a Democrat area? It couldn't. This video isn't real LOL

  • @RebRebel1 Too bad your inteligence level is so low. let us look at the slum neighborhoods of the whites and see, what oops we don't have time to visit all the trailer parks in america.

  • what I think happened was that it's expensive and have people working, people did not get very much money for the job your doing, but so were the workers unionized, and now factories cant afford to pay their workers.

    it is possible I'm wrong or I right?

    my car is from detroit, I will learn a little about the city.

    Thank you for showing us the video.

    usa should not send money other countries, send money to DETRIOT!

  • After you buy a house in Detroit, how much is the upkeep yearly? Taxes and etc???

  • So sad to see , Detroit once thrived and was full of life.

  • can you just gave me a run down on what happen to the city ANYONE PLZZZ

  • Sad because I'm sure they were all beautiful once, it's what happens when all the jobs go away, what is our country coming to!

  • I look at these house and imagine what they once were. Then I think of what they could be...

  • Whats the song called? Please answer ANYONE!

  • Just to think that someone once called these places home, now destroyed beyond repair and recognition. I still think Detroit can make it, it's a long shot, but damnit I believe in our ol' hood.

  • Comment removed

  • why are there so many houses burned? I never seen that many burned houses in a neighborhood like that.

  • @TheWaynelds Because people in Detroit commit arson like it is some kind of recreational activity.

  • USA sold the american economy to CHINA...Open your eyes....

  • down with land development, up with restoration!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

  • BLAME THE PEOPLE IN THE CITY OF DETROIT  THEY DONT CARE AS YOU CAN SEE

  • i saw a guy kickin it on the side of the house @ 0:43

  • what a SHITHOLE- they need to demolish all the homes and let it become prairie and forest again, get the welfare lowlife out of there

  • Too many videos focus on W Robinwood or West Grand & Lincoln. Both areas have little chance of seeing a revival any time in the near or distant future. Other places on the fringe of good areas stand a better chance of being rehabilitated.

    Until Detroit gets knuckleheads out of city hall, investors will stay away.

  • It was a bad idea to expand so much the cities. Tomorrow, oil will cost a lot and only the wities with a high density would have public transport.

    The future is now: stop doing a short term politic

  • is it any better now since this was made in 09?

  • @cherd1971 Steven Crowder did a piece on it not to long ago it didn't seem like it. Here's the link enjoy the guy has some good points.

  • @cherd1971 well it won't let me post the link but look up Detroit in RUINS! (Crowder goes Ghetto).

  • I'm waiting for someone to do a spoof off of the Tim Allen "pure michigan" commercials and show footage of detroit instead of beautiful landscape

  • We may fall like the soviet union, this time much harder because we have a bigger economy that could crash with more people.

    It might get ugly here soon.

    Prepare yourself and get a ton of canned food.

    You'll need it.

  • Kill America! Buy Chinese. The problem with buying a chinese product is that an hour later you feel like buying another one.

  • @SpreadingTruths Omg, that's so true.

    On eBay you can get like 5 head phones that are normally like $10 a piece at walmart for only .99 cents for 5 of the EXACT or almost identical item.

    Yes I am guilty of it, I buy some, then I see some more great deals.

    Some people think it's too good to be true, but I got the product and it worked and everything.

    In short, it's like opium. It's like a Chinese revenge.

    The drug of the USA is materialism.

  • Dont worry Producerz Inc comming soon!!! this will make some change.

  • I want to buy one of these houses. Someone please contact me. I have a few friends who want to buy one too. Please contact me.

  • i would still buy it for one dollar....i dont care what anyone says....ive lived in worse renting for 300 dollars a month...at least it would be mine

  • collapse is creeping in

  • Build a small CONUS base nearby. Take a detachment of vets freshly back from Iraq, who are already used to living in plywood seahuts and tents. Let them do a sweep and clear op on the whole place, then have them move in.

    The whole place would be renovated in less than a year, tops. Probably take less than a few months. And given the racial makeup of the US Army, it's likely stay a neighborhood of ethnic minorities too.

    They'd all vote Republican tho.

  • this what you do buy the $1 house fix it up and rent it out to some one

  • @manman4092 nobody would rent anything in that area

  • buy the whole block for 70 bucks and bulldoze it

  • bob

    

  • @RebRebel1 Exactly, Agreed!

  • What a great looking country!

  • Whats your system there in US, do people own the land where house is standing?

  • "the currency exchange is irrelevant."

    that's got to be the dumbest thing i've heard all week at least. go say that to a broker or venture capitalist and watch them laugh you out of the room. do yourself a favor and open a book before you open your mouth, you'll find it helps you not come off as an ignorant horses ass to even marginally educated people.

  • so is it just because the neighborhood is trashed that you shouldn't buy one of these cheap properties? or is it really unsafe there? i would love to be able to buy a cheap house, make my money off ebay and get out from under the rent man, even in an ugly neighborhood.

    do you need a machine gun to live in these places, or is it just really ugly and lonely? i'm seriously asking this, i want my own house and i'm too poor to buy in seattle where even a burned out shithole or a vacant lot is 250K.

  • I have renovated homes that looked this band and/or worse and made them absolutely picture perfect. I enjoy the challenge presented by the work........I wish all of we renovators could get together and do something together in unity! I would love the challenge here.......

  • @mrbrandon71 I'm sure you would do an amazing job renovating these properties, however the problem is that the black's would steal everything in sight, the next day tools, and building materials would all be gone, you would spend a few thousand dollars on copper for the plumbing and water, and some negro would steal it all and sell it for $20.00 but it was a nice thought.

  • @leonidas44498 LMAO what you said is soooo true.

  • Let's find a way to blame whitey !

  • @A2KID420 No Not racist I am prejudiced, Niggers come in many colors even white.

  • theres a guy in between two houses at 0:43

  • its more on haunted houses!!!

  • Did you come across any local citizens while filming this?

  • In Detroit, there is nothing left to live for.

    I told a friend that if I was stuck there, I'd load my backpack and WALK out of there. Damn whatever awaited me, it couldn't be worse.

  • That brick house at 1:05 has so much to offer! And the 'overgrown' house at 1:18 is super cute... It's not so bad that a few have been demolished. A house with a double lot, or some green space on at least one side is really nice and much quieter.

    If people live in the one at 1:40 on the other side of the tire pit, I feel for them.

  • @OriginalPinkbird

    yeah but it's all a matter of whats inside the houses... most people that are left there have resorted to raiding the houses for the scrap metal in the wires and fixtures. so if you probably look into the houses there, it would most likely be stripped down to the support beams...

  • It's a shame.... I live in NY and the neighborhoods look like this in some parts of western NY. It's all in the Rust Belt.

    Those houses look like Kit homes or Sears homes. They're so cute. I'd be tempted to buy one, if I didn't have to deal with a resentful neighborhood of 'have nots'. I don't have much but I have a "dollar and a dream". (NYS Lottery catch phrase.)

  • Why not clear the land and use it for farming. I know a lot aussie aborginals that would buy them houses use the floorboards as firewood

  • Sad to see such a once alive neighborhood turn into this.

  • oh my god what is goin on? in detroit?? is it still like this today may2010? where is everyone???

  • im from england, and id love to buy up some houses and start rebuilding. Even if it was 1 street. Not living in America, can anyone tell me how bad is it to live in Detroit?

  • @mustard0120 Yes, I can tell you. The people who live there now will kill you. That is, after they've finished robbing/raping/torturing you. Maybe they will 'turn you out' (make you into a sex slave, to be slowly raped/tortured to death). The people who live there have IQs ranging downward from 85. They are likely to be addicted to drugs, and eager to rob someone for drug money. The population of Detroit prevents anything being done with its stock of wonderful old buildings. So sad...

  • @mustard0120 Thanks for the advise, seems everyone this saying the same thing. Even the estate agentes. A real shame to seem such an amazin city disappear!

  • @mustard0120 statistically its safer in the iraq war

  • @mustard0120 Well it really depends on where you live in the city. The downtown would be the safest place. But the suburbs are very safe.

  • @mustard0120 Detroit was the greatest city on Earth until the niggers moved in back in the 1960s

  • What is this music?

  • Such a throw away society! Just demolish it all and dump it in the Gulf of Mexico. We're ruining that too!

  • overpaid undetalented too proud GM union workers are too blame-Where's the union for them now ?.......

  • Im going to buy one of these houses and turn it into a castle. Watch me.

  • It is not hard to imagine a time when that was a vibrant neighborhood - in the day, those were quality houses. This is but a glimpse into the not-so-distant future for much of the country as productive people continue to be punished.

  • The disease that caused this is Niggeritis.

  • captions are really anoying get rid of please

  • Best bet is probably the large brick on at 0:40

  • i would seriously love to live in the house at 0:15 !! 1$? i'll give you 10$

  • I don't know what the catch is. Anything or house is worth a dollar. The catch is probably you would have to pay taxes on a house with black mold growing and cat piss + gangs to deal with doing drive-by shootings.

  • wondering how much debt the house has ?

  • Look for the Union label!

  • Have you ever seen a monkey that cleaned its own cage?

  • keep voting for liberals and it will spread across the nation faster than you think it ever could

    It is not all the government fault tho, lazy ass people are part of the problem wanting everything for free in life

    But the government is the blame for promising it to them knowing they couldn't just for a vote

  • at one time those houses were filled with families, little kids playing in the yards, and a neighborhood filled with everyday hard working Americans. is this going to spread to the rest of the nation?

  • I want to move to Detroit so I can be a serial rapist, murderer and arsonist. I should expect to live a long and happy life there!!

  • This kids looking for a trap house lol

  • So Sad

  • This video isn't funny! You laugh and smile and kid around on your videos likes it'a joke!

    Buy another foreign product why don't you? It will be your neighborhood next. Then we'll have the last laugh!

  • @poppimds007 roflmao

  • @poppimds007 I buy American all the time, I buy Subaru

  • @poppimds007 by "foreign product" do you mean a foreign car? Well if Chrysler and American auto makers didn't allow lazy union employees to drive up cost while delivering a CRAPPY product then I wouldn't be forced to buy foreign made in order to get a quality car for the amount of money I'm spending. Its called capitalism. Make a quality product for a consumer determined price and we'll buy it and you guys wouldn't be living in bankruptcy.

  • @Graciethemom Well said!

  • @poppimds007 no body was laughing about this

  • wow, I'm thinking this property in the video is on the east side, and I've been pretty busy as well, yes, we need to meet up and see what you have, I'll talk to you guys later, thanks

  • What does the mayor or any City workers doing there to clean up that trash they call a city

  • The city is broke! I saw a video over the weekend. Dead Bodies are stacked up in the city morgue. Cost $650 to bury a body in the city's potter field, and the city can only do it if they get private donations. State ain't sendin' them shit.

  • What is the name of the song in the video? Also, nice use of annotations :D

  • what are some links on houses that you guys have available , im interested , im sure others are too .

  • Detroit is a good investment right now ,, im trying to buy up all theeese prpoerties at rock bottom while i can .. word is bond god

  • D-town real gansta...

  • Yes, definitely down the line!
