About Muskegon's Downtown Muskegon

Good time to buy a home or investment real estate!

David John Sellmuskegon Medendorp  CCIM  GRI CRS  Muskegon Mi : Real Estate Agent in Muskegon, MI

In today’s apparent shaky economy there are a lot of rumors in the real estate market advising now isn’t a good time to buy until our economy experiences a turn around. Like many types of advice based on fear, this one could not be less true. Many people are discovering that now is the perfect time to buy or sell real estate, for a variety of reasons.

Home prices are low. Mortgage rates are low. There is a large inventory to choose from. Seller’s are willing to negotiate.

In addition to normal home sales that are typical in any market, today potential buyers may find opportunities to get a good deal in foreclosure properties or in short sales. Short sales require approval from the lender who holds the mortgage on the seller's property, but with declining home values more lenders are open to taking less in a resale price than the home is worth.

Real estate agents can help guide you through the process of finding and purchasing a home.

The number of foreclosures that have occurred in recent years which have depressed home values means that there are many more properties to choose from, and the prices are better than they have been for years. The market, however, has not yet recovered, meaning that there is a possibility that values could decrease more before things pick up if there is another big wave of foreclosures that hit the market.

Still, when things turn around those values will increase, and buyers today will likely be positioning themselves well for when the market returns.

Owning a home is still very much the American dream. For years lenders were not as careful as they needed to be in determining borrowers' ability to repay loans, and we are suffering the results of that now. But as things turn around, and the housing market returns, many opportunities exist for people to find their dream home at a price that hasn't been seen for years.

DOWNTOWN LANDMARK GETS A BREATH OF FRESH AIR!

Front of the Hamilton Apartments

A long time downtown landmark, the Hamilton Apartments Down town Muskegon was purchased by investment partners, David R. Gregersen and Blake P. Hotz in April of this year.

The 17,000 square foot building at 81 Hamilton was showing signs of its age. The partners have invested in renovations of the front steps and terrace, landscaping it and installing period wrought iron fence. Inside, the original marble and hardwood floors have been restored to their original brilliance.The new owner's have kept the original beauty of the building in tact as a gift to the community.

The historical Hamilton Building was built just before the stock market crash of 1929, by captain of industry Thomas Bennett, the founder of Bennett Pump. It was to be and remained upon completion the pre-eminent living accommodations for the who's who of Muskegon.Remodeled and renovated to fit today's modern life style, Hamilton Place Apartments again take its place amongst discerning apartment seekers wishing to live in high-society style.It's just walking distance from the Muskegon Lake waterfront, where you will find the cross-lake ferry, parks, beaches, concerts, festivals, and trails!The surrounding area couldn't be better! Within a few blocks of home, you can visit museums, restaurants, nightclubs, a historic library, Hackley Park, and Walker Sports Arena.In the last 10 year there has been $80 million dollars of development in the area. including Baker Culinary Art School, the Muskegon Smart Zone and Heritage Landing, and Hot Rod Harley.

You're also within a mile of the hospital, your local government and post office. It's a great area to work and to live!So, whether you walk, bike, drive, take a taxi or ride the bus you are always closer to where "it's at" when you start from the door of the Hamilton. Art Deco meets twenty first century life style.
