East Grand Rapids Michigan Top Best Buy Homes Jan 2011

This is our list of the Top Best Buy East Grand Rapids Houses

to buy based on price/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 and 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 value per square foot than a home

that still has the 1980’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.
