You've looked at a lot of places. Maybe too many. But then you found yourself in East Hills, where red brick pavement and century-old houses somehow coexist with the kind of restaurant density that makes you stop wondering if you should eat out again. Fairmount Square sits right in the middle of it—a one-acre condo community in a neighborhood that's learned to balance its 1890s bones with a decidedly modern appetite. Downtown Grand Rapids is four and a half minutes away. The nearest coffee shop is two minutes on foot, which means the commute to caffeine is shorter than the commute to regret. Restaurants? There are 379 within a mile, and the nearest one is literally steps away. You won't strain yourself getting groceries either—the nearest market is a five-minute walk. Congress Park lands just three minutes on foot if you need actual green space, and there are 21 parks within a mile if you're counting. Transit is essentially at your door (two minutes), and the airport runs about 22 minutes when you need to leave. Homes here run around $612K, which buys you into Grand Rapids Public Schools and the kind of walkability score that actually means something—9.6/10 for dining alone tells you everything about what matters here. East Hills has positioned itself as the gastronomic heart of the city, with Cherry Street as proof. You came here because you were tired of pretending suburbs were somewhere you wanted to be.

Crime in Fairmount Square Condominiums is reported at the city level, not the neighborhood level.

To buy a median-priced Fairmount Square Condominiums home (around $387,500) at today's 6.65% 30-year fixed rate with 20% down, you'd need roughly $70k/year in household income to qualify — an estimated monthly payment of $2,610 (principal, interest, property tax est., and insurance).

Down paymentMonthly paymentIncome needed
20% $2,610/mo$69,602
10% (+PMI)$3,004/mo$80,111
5% (+PMI)$3,137/mo$83,643

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.
