great leveler, if two similar homes are listed at similar prices, their

price per square foot and amenities should be similar.

if the home has marble tile, new windows, new mechanicals & a new kitchen,

Kentwood has been hit hard by the real estate downturn,

propelled by 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

[2-9 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, so funds for home repairs and

improvements are crucial.

 

The FHA 203K loan will allow you to roll some home

improvement costs into your home loan. If you have been

considering a Kentwood home purchase, ask us about how

this loan can work for you.  Interest rates are still at record

lows and inventory is very affordable in Kentwood.
