Heritage Hill climbs the hill just east of downtown Grand Rapids, with Greek Revival, Italianate, Queen Anne and Prairie-style houses, including Frank Lloyd Wright's Meyer May House. It is one of the city's local historic districts, so exterior work follows preservation rules. A partner agent who works here knows how restoration, condition and converted multi-unit houses each factor into price.

Local know-how

What to know about buying and selling in Heritage Hill

Exterior changes need approval

Heritage Hill is a city historic district, so most exterior work, such as replacing windows, siding, porches, roofing or fences, goes through the Grand Rapids Historic Preservation Commission. Ask about past approvals and build that review into your plans.

Inspect a very old house fully

Many homes here date to the 1800s. Plan for inspections of the foundation, sewer line, chimneys, plaster and any remaining knob-and-tube wiring, and expect a lead-based paint disclosure.

Converted houses and rentals

Some large houses were divided into apartments over the years. If a home has more than one unit, confirm its zoning and Grand Rapids rental certification status before you count on rental income.

Questions, answered

What parts of Michigan do you cover?

The whole state: metro Detroit, Ann Arbor, Lansing, Grand Rapids, Kalamazoo, Traverse City, the lakeshore and the Upper Peninsula. Enter your ZIP and we match you with a partner who works that area.

Is this really free?

Yes. There's no cost to you. Our partner agents and lenders are paid the usual way, and only if you choose to work with them.

Who will contact me?

One of our partner real estate agents or mortgage lenders who serves your area. Keep your phone handy: they may call or text from a number you don't recognize. You can reply STOP or ask them to stop at any time.

Should I get pre-approved before I look at homes?

Usually, yes. A pre-approval shows sellers you're serious and tells you exactly what you can afford. After you send your request, tell us you need a mortgage and we'll add a partner lender too.

Can you help me sell and buy at the same time?

Absolutely. Pick "Buying & selling" and we'll match you with an agent experienced in coordinating both sides of a move.
