Centennial Park Meadows Condominiums are located just off 28th Street

and Thornapple River Dr. in Cascade, Michigan. The Condos wrap around

the Centennial Golf Course and community.

This private par 70 golf course has plenty of challenges for golfers at

every level. This community also has a clubhouse and restaurant for

members.

We have relocated several clients into this community and they find it a

wonderful place to live. Just minutes from 28th Street & Cascade shopping,

dining and amusements, you are centrally located but tucked away from

the bustle of the area for quiet, serene living and easy access to golf.

This market is seeing sales in 2010 and with no condos on the market,

it is difficult to say how long before a new listing would sell, most

likely quickly, if priced correctly.

The average sold price is slightly lower than it was last year but the one

obviously distressed sale brings the averages down.

The Quail Crest Condo development is located west of Spaulding

and north of Burton Street in Cascade Township. There is an

entrance off Spaulding Avenue and off Burton Street. This condo

development was started in the late 1980′s and continued building

into the current phase.

The condos are spacious with cathedral ceilings and many have

finished lower levels with extra bedrooms and baths. This area

has been very attractive for retirees, as they are close to all the

local amenities and shopping but no house maintenance.

Forest Hills Public Schools are the school district,

Watermark Country Club, Forest Hills & 28th Street shopping are

a short distance away. The miles of Cascade-Ada Bike/Walking Trail

connects to downtown Cascade, downtown Ada, and 28th St.

The absorption rate for Quail Crest Condos is 18 months, which

means if no new listings come on the market, it will take 18 months

for the current inventory of homes to sell at the current rate of sales.

This is high for the Grand Rapids Market. The average sold price

and the price per square foot for the one home that sold is much

lower than last year’s sold price average of $ 175,000.

We have seen some sellers renting instead of selling, waiting for a

return to a seller’s market. That may be the route to take, if you can

play the role of landlord successfully.
