Centennial Plat
Solid value in a growing area
Median $165K·Walkability 5.3/10·Schools 4.0/10
Centennial Plat is a 28-acre subdivision where the nearest grocery store is a two-minute walk and a restaurant is steps from your front door—which means the plat itself is dense enough that you're not driving for basics, yet small enough that 9 parks sit within a mile. Lots average just over a tenth of an acre, making this one of Grand Rapids' tighter residential grids. The subdivision sits in Southeast Grand Rapids, about 6 minutes from downtown and served by Grand Rapids Public Schools. Transit access is immediate, and if you boat, Butterworth Park Launch is 1.7 miles away.

Estimates use a 6.65% 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.
