The #1 "Secret" Step Every Home Buyer Needs to Take! 🏠✨

Found a house you love? Before you sign those papers, do the "Off-Hours Audit." Don't just visit during the open house! Go back at:

👉 10 PM on a Tuesday: Is it quiet? Or is the street a shortcut for loud traffic?

👉 10 AM on a Saturday: What’s the neighborhood vibe? Is parking a nightmare?

👉 8 AM on a Monday: Do the "test commute" to work.

A house is a 24/7 commitment—make sure you love it at midnight just as much as you do at noon! 🌙☀️

🤩 An aquarium would make a wonderful addition to Grand Rapids 👀

John Ball Zoo is closely vetting a contaminated former landfill site along the Grand River for the development of a large-scale aquarium, Crain’s Grand Rapids Business has learned.

The target Kent County property is part of the Fenske Landfill, a federally designated contamination site, which adds a layer of complexity to any prospective property deal, according to documents obtained through a Freedom of Information Act request.

John Ball Zoo is working through a due diligence period and holds an option agreement to purchase the land in the city of Walker totaling 191 acres at 2550, 2552, 2646, 2648, 2650 and 2652 Kenowa Ave. SW, including frontage along the Grand River. The parcels are located across Wilson Avenue from Johnson Park on the western edge of Kent County.

Over 82% of U.S. homeowners are sitting on mortgages with rates under 6%—many even under 4%. That’s a big reason why inventory has been tight… and why sellers are holding off.

But here’s the thing—home equity has also grown substantially over the past few years. If you’re wondering whether it’s worth listing or refinancing, the best place to start is with a quick equity review.

DM me and I’ll run one for you. No pressure, just the facts—so you can make a smart move when the time is right.
