We have gathered a list of the Top Best Buy Caledonia Michigan

Houses to buy based on price per 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.  The price should

reflect the interior finish of the  home.

For example, if it has crystal chandeliers,marble tile, & a new

kitchen, this would be more per square foot than a home that

still has the 1970’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.

Crystal Springs ~ Kentwood Absorption Report August 2009

Crystal Springs Development in Caledonia, Michigan is a large, residential

suburban housing development that was started in the late 1980’s and

most construction was finished in the 1990’s although some newer homes

have been built since 2000. There are also a few vacant lots left to develop.

This development covers a large area around the Stonewater Golf Course

at Crystal Springs south of 68th Street to 72nd Street and encompassing

Kalamazoo Avenue on the east and west.  This development has single

family homes and condos, many located right on the Stonewater Golf Course.

The public school system is Kentwood, even though the address is Caledonia.

Crystal Springs is close to the shopping plaza at 68th and Kalamazoo,

Kentwood High School, and a short hop to M-6, which is the south beltline for

the Greater Grand Rapids area connecting US 131 on the west and I96 on the

east side of the city.

The Quail Crest Condo development is located west of Spaulding

and north of Burton Street in Cascade Township. There is an

entrance off Spaulding Avenue and off Burton Street. This condo

development was started in the late 1980′s and continued building

into the current phase.

The condos are spacious with cathedral ceilings and many have

finished lower levels with extra bedrooms and baths. This area

has been very attractive for retirees, as they are close to all the

local amenities and shopping but no house maintenance.

Forest Hills Public Schools are the school district,

Watermark Country Club, Forest Hills & 28th Street shopping are

a short distance away.   The miles of Cascade-Ada Bike/Walking Trail

connects to downtown Cascade, downtown Ada, and 28th St.

means if no new listings come on the market, it will take 18 months

for the current inventory of homes to sell at the current rate of sales.

This is high for the Grand Rapids Market.  The  average sold price

and the price per square foot for the one home that sold is much

lower than last year’s sold price average of $ 175,000.

We have seen some sellers renting instead of selling, waiting for a

return to a seller’s market.  That may be the route to take, if you can

play the role of landlord successfully.

Current Caledonia MI Absorption Report

Absorption rate for Caledonia MI Market is  currently 4.6 months,

which means if no other homes come on the market, it will take

4.6 months for the current inventory to sell at the current

sales rate.  This stat is down by one third+ less than last year’s figure.

We are seeing a definite upturn in sales in Caledonia homes and

sell times are currently returned to a “normal” range of 3-6 months.

Blacksmith sign sm web

There are 125 current active listings, from $77,900 to

$1,195,000 in Caledonia MI.

Current average Caledonia home listed price is much higher

[about $297,773] than the average sold price [$166,914].

37 Pending Home Sales, and 44 Sold Homes since Jan 1, 2010.

The average sold price/Square foot is $ 92.89

Sold High $425,000   Sold Low – $57,400

There are 3 homes in million dollar+ range listed, so this skews

the figures somewhat in the upper home price brackets.

The Caledonia market has been  busy so far this year; buyers

bought 6 homes under $100K, the majority of homes purchased

were between $100-200K.

Currently, there are only 9 homes listed under $100K, 39 homes

listed  between $ 300K-999,999K, and that means that 77 homes

are listed between $100K and 299,999K, many opportunities

in the middle brackets to own a home in Caledonia.

With interest rates bound to rise, buying now could save you

thousands of dollars over the life of your mortgage.

OUR FLICKR PHOTOSTREAM

We have gathered a list of the TOP Caledonia Michigan Houses

to buy, based on price per 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.  The price should reflect

the interior finish of the  home.   For example, if it has crystal chandeliers,

marble tile, & a new kitchen, this would be more per square foot than

a home that still has the 1970’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.

Check back often or just subscribe to our blog to get

up-to-date local real estate information that you want to know.

Only 3 homes priced under $100K, we are starting to see prices

creep up and inventory go down, so if you have been waiting

for the best time to buy in Caledonia, don’t wait much longer.

The Buyers Tax Credit is available for First Time Buyers and

homeowners who have lived in their homes for the past 5 of

8 years only until April of this year.  We don’t expect it to be

renewed and interest rates will likely go up.  NOW is the best

time to buy a Caledonia home.

 

*Some of these homes may be bank owned foreclosures and

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

The Caledonia market has been  busy this year; buyers  bought 8 homes

under $100K, the majority were between $100-200K.  

Average sold price/square foot and average sold price overall lost

ground this year.  There are 14 homes listed under $100K, and  lots

of opportunities in the middle brackets to own a home in Caledonia.

With interest rates bound to rise, buying now could save you

thousands of dollars over the life of your mortgage.

Crystal Springs ~ Kentwood Absorption Report August 2009

Crystal Springs Development in Caledonia, Michigan is a large, residential

suburban housing development that was started in the late 1980’s and

most construction was finished in the 1990’s although some newer homes

have been built since 2000. There are also a few vacant lots left to develop.

 

This development covers a large area around the Stonewater Golf Course

at Crystal Springs south of 68th Street to 72nd Street and encompassing

Kalamazoo Avenue on the east and west.  This development has single

family homes and condos, many located right on the Stonewater Golf Course.

 

The public school system is Kentwood, even though the address is Caledonia.

Crystal Springs is close to the shopping plaza at 68th and Kalamazoo,

Kentwood High School, and a short hop to M-6, which is the south beltline for

the Greater Grand Rapids area connecting US 131 on the west and I96 on the

east side of the city.
