Our Investment Approach

Investing in homes. Creating value in Michigan communities.

Acquire, renovate, resell

Beyond purchasing homes directly from homeowners, Oakland Home Buyers identifies residential investment opportunities through public auctions and other acquisition channels.

Our approach combines careful property research, disciplined acquisitions and strategic renovations to improve properties and bring them back to market — often turning dated or vacant houses into move-in-ready homes for the next owner.

How we acquire properties

Directly from homeowners

Homeowners who want a convenient alternative to listing can request an offer from us. This is the core of our business and where we focus our customer service.

Public auctions & bank-owned sales

We also purchase investment properties through sheriff's sales, mortgage foreclosure and tax foreclosure auctions, bank-owned (REO) sales and other public real estate auctions.

Research before every purchase

Every property we consider is evaluated by our team. Depending on the acquisition channel, our research can include local market conditions, recent comparable sales, repair and renovation estimates, title and lien research, and — for foreclosure auctions — Michigan redemption-period considerations.

This discipline is what allows us to make clear offers to homeowners and to renovate homes responsibly.
