You wake up and the first thing you notice is space—actual room to breathe on a lot that's nearly three-quarters of an acre. Southpointe No. 2 spreads across six acres in the 68th St & 60th St Area, where the rhythm is suburban but not isolated. There's a park about a nine-minute walk away, and you're surrounded by ninety restaurants and eighteen grocery stores within a couple of miles, so running errands doesn't mean driving to the edge of the earth. Gerald R. Ford airport is thirteen minutes away, and downtown Grand Rapids is under twenty.

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.
