You'll want a car here—this is a car place, full stop. Hathaway Lakes No. 8 sits in that stretch of Greater Grand Rapids where the suburbs thin out, putting you about 34 minutes from downtown and a quick 14 minutes from Grand Haven's beach if you're willing to make the drive. The nearest grocery store is a 55-minute walk, and the nearest park is even farther, so this is the kind of subdivision where your daily life happens on wheels. If you're the type who got tired of pretending to like walkable neighborhoods and just want some land and distance, it's straightforward enough.

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.
