Luring Foreclosure Buyers on Detroit's 'Lonely Homes' Tour

By Steven Gray/Detroit Tuesday, Oct. 13, 2009

Joy Santiago is a real estate agent who has organized a "Lonely Homes Tour" of foreclosed properties in Indian Village, one of Detroit's last stately, middle-class neighborhoods.

Steven Gray for TIME

On a recent Sunday afternoon, Joy Santiago, a real estate agent, stood atop the front steps of a vacant, eight-bedroom colonial-style mansion, bullhorn in hand. "Alright, 10 minutes," she declared, ushering in the 50 or so people on the Lonely Homes Tour, an aggressive effort to sell foreclosed properties in one of Detroit's last solidly middle-class neighborhoods.

Last year, a group of Indian Village residents launched a search for a real estate agent who would commit to the neighborhood. They soon found Santiago. She'd left Ann Arbor, Mich., for Detroit in the late-1980s to work as a booking agent for techno music DJs. By the late-1990s, she'd become a real estate agent, and frequently worked in Indian Village. The timing was good back then: In her first year, Santiago says she sold one house a week. "Everyone had a job, everyone wanted to have the American dream — homeownership," the 41-year-old says.

One of Santiago's first marketing ideas was what was christened the Lonely Homes Tour. The first tour, in September 2008, drew car loads of prospective buyers. More importantly, it generated considerable buzz about Indian Village's mansions. The next installment came last month. Residents lined the leafy streets leading up to Indian Village with ads promoting the tour. Of course, they also touted the event on Facebook.

So far, Indian Village residents seem satisfied. Wasko says: "If I were a real estate agent, I'd act like Joy: I'd work my butt off on Sunday afternoon, and not roll my eyes and say, 'maybe this won't get the sale.'"

That effort just might be paying off. One day after the tours, Santiago says she had gotten several calls for second showings. About six people from the Lonely Homes Tours have made offers. "People heard about Indian Village, but without an event like this," Santiago says, "they wouldn't have made it."
