Situated along the 36th Street corridor with quick access to I-96, Thornapple Hills is a 4-acre condo community where you can grab coffee or a meal without leaving the immediate area—there's a grocery store within a 5-minute walk and restaurants literally steps away, which is handy when you're not cooking. The area has over 100 restaurants within a mile if you're willing to drive a few minutes for options beyond what's on the doorstep. The nearest park, Leslie E. Tassell, sits less than a mile away, and you're about 16 minutes from downtown Grand Rapids or 11 minutes to Gerald R. Ford Airport—close enough that neither feels like a trek.

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.
