Scrantons Add.
Solid value in a growing area
Median $216K·Walkability 5.7/10·Schools 3.9/10
Scrantons Add. plots 13 acres into tight 0.12-acre lots—the kind of urban density that puts downtown Grand Rapids just 5 minutes away by car. A grocery store sits a six-minute walk off, and restaurants number 48 within a mile; stepping outside puts you near one immediately. There's a transit stop three minutes on foot, 8 parks within a mile (Rasberry Field is a seven-minute walk), and the nearest coffee shop about a mile down the road. The subdivision sits within Seeds of Promise, the Southeast community where a nonprofit by the same name has been organizing resident-led development—home repair programs, community cleanups, and new single-family construction on formerly vacant parcels. Schools fall under Grand Rapids Public Schools, and Gerald R. Ford Airport is 22 minutes north.

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.
