Home Sales Up says CNN Money – How about Grand Rapids MI?

Home Sales Up says CNN Money – How About Grand Rapids MI?

An article in CNNMoney.com says home sale contracts have risen for the

8th consecutive month.  Most of this activity is attributed to the first

time home buyer tax credit.  NAR [National Assoc of Realtors] released

September figures that homes sales spiked 6.1% in August, the index’s

highest level since December 2006.


Just how is Grand Rapids doing?  With one of the highest unemployment

figures in the country, and home foreclosures only second to Nevada,

let’s see how Grand Rapids is faring in home sales so far this year.

East Grand Rapids Michigan Top Best Buy Homes Oct 2009

We have gathered a list of the top East Grand Rapids Houses to buy

based on price per square foot. Please note that this list can change daily

as some homes sell, prices are adjusted and other homes come on the

market. Price per square foot is a great leveler. If two similar homes are

listed at similar prices, their price per square foot should be similar.

It should reflect the interior finish of the home. For example, if it has

crystal chandeliers, marble tile, a new kitchen, this would be more per

square foot than a home that is in derelict condition.

Note:  We will not be listing “Short Sale” properties in our list,

if disclosed.

This sharp little bungalow on Grand Rapids Michigan NE side has a surprising

amount of room.  The finished recreation room down and the large bedroom

up with a full bath make it a plus. Many improvements, new carpeting,

tile floors, fenced yard and a quiet neighborhood.

Come on over and take a look. We will be there Sunday from 12-2 pm.
