Update: It’s been nearly two years since we first posted this project. We thought we would never be able to follow-up with a completed version after the owner listed it for sale. Fortunately, one of our clients is the new owner and just finished remodeling the property [...]

Update: Almost ready to go!

Originally posted 10/23/2009: This duplex is quite the project. I do not envy the contractors working on this one. Our client asked us to do a walkthrough before he bought it to let him know what we thought. Upon walking in, we turned right around and left. We said no way. The smell. The stained walls. I think we probably got some sort of disease from breathing the air. You get the picture…

Anyways, I stopped by the other day and was pleased to see that they have [...]

Update: That was a quick one. All done!

Originally posted 11/14/2009: This is a cool duplex, kiddy-corner from a tavern and a stones throw from Leonard St. businesses. We have been pretty quiet in the West Grand neighborhood lately, but are happy to be back. Each apartment is rather large, and filled with hardwoods and tile. The upper unit has a great deck that will get some attention to make sure it is safe and secure. There’s really not a whole lot more to tell [...]

UPDATE: This one is about 95% done. The final details will be wrapped up within the week. It is available in our rental section now. Here are some photos:

Funny story. I was taking photos of this one when a guy in his late 20’s walked right in and asked me if Scott was there. I told him the house was vacant and Scott probably lost the house or was a tenant and had to move out. He quickly stopped me and [...]

Originally posted 2/5/09: Wednesday, the Senate added an interesting element to the proposed stimulus package. If it holds up, homeowners will get a tax credit for 10% of the home’s price when they buy a home. The credit has a cap of $15,000, so anybody buying a home over $150,000 will only get [...]

Be sure to visit Stimulus Watch to read up on which “shovel-ready” projects should get funded in Grand Rapids. You can get some details on the projects and vote for or against them. I don’t know how much influence the site has over which ones are ultimately chosen, but it’s interesting nonetheless.
Reading through the [...]

I’m still trying to figure out the addresses to all the units, but I do know that there are a one bedroom and a 2 bedroom apartment downstairs, and a one bedroom and a 1.5 bedroom (small walk-through bedroom is the half) apartment. Cool place, right by Union Square condos, the highway, and [...]

This will provide for an interesting “before and after???” (well, maybe if these online pictures were Scratch-and-Sniff) Really, it should be a very nice home in no time. The house has 3 beds and 2 baths with a nice sized yard. I’ll let the pictures do a little talking…
Update: All done. So [...]

I love the layout of this house. It would be perfect for anybody with mobility problems (or not too). The road construction makes it hard to reach right now, but it will be done by the end of the summer. Construction will start soon.
Update: Finally, after many delays, this one is now [...]
