About this home
Welcome to 452 Howard Street SE, a compelling opportunity for buyers ready to take the important step into homeownership. This property is especially well suited for first time home buyers who are looking for an attainable entry point into the Grand Rapids housing market while building long-term equity instead of continuing to rent.
The home offers a solid foundation and functional layout, with the added advantage of future potential. While it may benefit from cosmetic updates, this creates a unique opportunity for buyers to personalize the space over time and add value at their own pace. Rather than paying a premium for someone else's renovations, this home allows you to invest strategically and make it your own.
Down payment programs and first time home buyer programs are available. Affordability is one of the strongest features of this opportunity. There are down payment and closing cost assistance programs available, and some buyers may qualify for up to $25,000 in assistance, depending on eligibility and program availability. These programs can significantly reduce upfront costs and help overcome common financial barriers to homeownership. Buyers are encouraged to consult with a qualified lender to explore available options and confirm eligibility.
To provide additional confidence, a 12-month home warranty is included, offering peace of mind as you settle into your new home. This added protection helps offset unexpected repair costs and supports a smoother transition into ownership.
Location further enhances the value of this property. Situated just minutes from downtown Grand Rapids, the home offers convenient access to employment centers, dining, entertainment, and ongoing development. As the surrounding area continues to grow and evolve, this proximity creates both lifestyle convenience and long-term investment potential.
This home represents more than just a purchase. It represents a realistic path to ownership, an opportunity to stop renting, start building equity, and create stability through real estate. With the right plan, available assistance programs, and a vision for the future, 452 Howard Street SE can be the starting point for long-term financial growth.
If you have been waiting for the right opportunity to enter the market, this property deserves your attention.
