Lowell Michigan Top Best Buy Homes – May 2010

We have a list of the TOP Best Lowell  Michigan Houses to buy,

based on price per square foot.   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.

The price 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 still has the 1970’s decor and/or is in derelict

condition.

Please note that this list can change daily as some homes

sell, prices are adjusted and other homes come on the market.

Kentwood &  Wyoming have been hit hard by unemployment,

which propels foreclosures and short sales.  Short Sales are

extremely difficult for most home buyers to consider as a

purchase due to timing.  Please keep in mind the time alone

[3-9 months] of negotiating with the banks makes it difficult

for some buyers to consider.

Foreclosures are somewhat easier to purchase but many are sold

as-is.  The Tax Credit for home buyers has expired, except for

military serving overseas.  If you have been thinking of buying

a Kentwood home, NOW IS THE TIME!!  Interest rates are still

at record lows and inventory is still high.

Please note that this list can change daily as some

homes sell, prices are adjusted and other homes come on

the market. Check back often or just subscribe to our blog

Caledonia Michigan Top Best Buy Homes – May 2010

We have gathered a list of the Top Best Buy Caledonia Michigan

Houses to buy based on price per square foot.   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.  The price 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

still has the 1970’s decor and/or is in derelict condition.

Please note that this list can change daily as some homes

sell, prices are adjusted and other homes come on the market.

Check back often or just subscribe to our blog to get

up-to-date local real estate information that you want to know.

Grand Rapids Michigan  Centennial Park Condos  Real Estate Market Report  April 2010

Centennial Park Meadows Condominiums are located just off 28th Street

and Thornapple River Dr. in Cascade, Michigan. The Condos wrap around

the  Centennial Golf Course and community.

This private par 70 golf course has plenty of challenges for golfers at

every level.  This community also has a clubhouse and restaurant for

members.

We have relocated several clients into this community and they find it a

wonderful place to live. Just minutes from 28th Street & Cascade shopping,

dining and amusements, you are centrally located but tucked away from

the bustle of the area for quiet, serene living and easy access to golf.

it is difficult to say how long before a new listing would sell, most

likely quickly, if priced correctly.

The average sold price is slightly lower than it was last year but the one

obviously distressed sale brings the averages down.
