When you pull into Bay Meadows No 1, you're in a neighborhood where the lots are generous—averaging just under half an acre—and homes sit comfortably spaced from one another rather than stacked shoulder-to-shoulder. You're positioned west of Grand Rapids with a straightforward 42-minute drive to downtown and about 31 minutes to Grand Haven's waterfront if you're craving a beach day. The area connects you to four grocery stores and a handful of dining spots within a couple of miles, though getting around will definitely require a car most of the time. Stu Visser Trails is just a five-minute walk away if you want to stretch your legs, and there are four parks within a mile for when you feel like getting outside.

Estimates use a 7.03% 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.
