 MARKET SYNOPSIS: Caledonia MI is experiencing the same

problem as other areas of our real estate market. A glut of homes

on the market and buyers with a bargain mentality.  At the current

rate of sales, we have a 30+ month supply of homes, if no other

homes come on the market.  If you don’t need to sell your Caledonia

home now, this is not a good time to test the waters with a high price

on your home. Save yourself the trouble and don’t list  your home unless

you absolutely have to sell.  And price it accordingly.

 

 

If you have questions about Caledonia homes or

Grand Rapids homes, please contact me directly.
