Autumn Wood sits on fourteen acres in the E. Ware's Add. Area, a stretch of West Michigan where the horizon opens up without swallowing you whole. You're about thirty-four minutes from downtown Grand Rapids, which means you get actual land—each lot runs roughly two-thirds of an acre—without feeling like you've driven to the edge of the earth. Boomer Park is just over three miles away if you want a change of scenery beyond your own property.

Estimates use a 6.49% 30-year fixed rate (current Freddie Mac average), an aggressive ~45% housing-to-income ratio (roughly what FHA underwriting can allow for a buyer with no other monthly debts — your number depends on your debts and credit), this area's median sale price, plus estimated insurance and PMI below 20% down. Not a commitment to lend, and not an APR — your actual rate and payment will vary.
