Early evening is when Grand Haven Armory shows its best self—the brick facades catch the last light, and the sidewalks fill with people stepping out to dinner or a drink. You're standing in the middle of downtown, where restaurants number 162 within a mile and the nearest one is literally steps away, along with grocery stores and coffee shops close enough that you don't need to think about it. The dining scene here scores a perfect 10 on walkability, which means the real economy of the neighborhood runs on foot traffic and regulars who know the bartenders.

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.
