Why buy real estate in Grand Rapids?
Well, let me tell you why buying a home in Grand Rapids is a very smart decision. First of all, the New York Times ranked Grand Rapids a top ten real estate market for buyers in 2009. Values have dropped over 18% and the median price for a 4 bedroom, 2 1/2 bath home in the greater Grand Rapids area for 2009 was just under $152,400. Also, just on a recent Today show episode, Grand Rapids ranked third real estate value for the dollar in metropolitan areas of over 250,000 people. With interest rates still at near record lows and the current tax incentives out there for buyers, it is a great time to buy a home in Grand Rapids.
Now let’s talk about what Grand Rapids has to offer today. We have a wonderful and thriving downtown area, still growing and expanding into new and exciting things. We have numerous top flight restaurants, nightlife and arts and theater. Our conventions are still on the rise with more and more growth in the hotel industry around the city. Grand Rapids is soon to be home to the new Michigan State University Medical School on the Michigan Street medical mile. Some of the most philanthropic people in this town deserve a lot of recognition in being a big part of this plan. Mr.’s Devos, Van Andel, Secchia, Meijer to name a few, have put their time, effort and financial help to help make this happen. Grand Rapidians have hope that this will soon make Grand Rapids a major stop on the medical horizon nationally like other cities across the country, such as The Cleveland Clinic, Mayo Clinic and so on.
Lake Michigan, being only 30 miles from the city, seems to be forgotten to some, but this is still a major draw to the city and surrounding areas of Grand Rapids. Many families spend most of their weekend time on the shores of Lake Michigan enjoying the beautiful parks and beaches that west Michigan offers.
Come to Grand Rapids and see what our city can offer you and your family.
