Top Home Buys Kentwood Michigan ~ May 2009

We have gathered a list of the Top Kentwood Home

Buys.  Please note: This list can change daily as some

homes sell, prices are  adjusted and other  homes come

on the market. The homes listed below are probably

dated and would need updating with new carpeting,

paint, and kitchen-bath redos at a minimum to bring

them to current market standards. They might need major

repair work done, such as new roofs & mechanicals.

*Some of these homes may be bank owned foreclosures and

not habitable as is or available for a mortgage in present condition.*

The total square footage is noted here, although only the

main floors are used to figure price per square foot.  The

lowest price/Sq Ft range from $26.26 to $56.82 in

Kentwood this month. 

Two fewer homes on the list this month but still bargain

prices.   Kentwood & Wyoming have been hit hard by the

automotive shutdowns and subsequent job losses.
