Solid value in a growing area
Median $306K·Walkability 4.9/10·Schools 3.8/10
The thing to know before you get there: Bouws Sub is a small, tight subdivision where you're never more than a short drive from anything that matters. It's twenty-one acres of fairly uniform lots—each running about a third of an acre—laid out in that straightforward way that makes it easy to actually know where you're going. Homes here run around $484K. A park is practically on your doorstep, two minutes on foot, and there are six more within a mile if you want options. Grocery stores, restaurants, and coffee shops all cluster within a ten-minute walk or so; there are ninety-six restaurants and thirty grocery stores within a mile or two, which means you're not exactly roughing it. The nearest transit stop is steps away, and Grand Haven beach is about thirty-two minutes down the road if you're planning a Sunday drive.

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.
