Born in Kent County, raised in Ottawa County, went to college in Washtenaw County, worked for a time in Berrien County, and am now back in Ottawa County after getting laid off and finding a job in my home county...and my favorite county is Mason County!
I love Ferrysburg/Spring Lake and work in Holland. |

Now here is a smart poster!
Born and raised in Mason County, and can think of no better place to raise kids and put down deeper roots. My family have had roots in Ludington/Scottville area for almost as long as there has been a Ludington and Scottville. |

A lot depends on where you are. Water property has higher taxes, for example. You can figure 5,000 to 7,000 for an average , but , that will vary. The Realtor you are working with will have the tax numbers, and , the prospective increases,once ownership is transfered. If , not , ... find another Realtor.

It also depends on the "zoning" "Code restrictions", Economic growth, and whether your in the City or county, and more.

B&R in Petown, Left because of the construction trades going bust.
I remember when this happend in the late 70s and it only turned around because of the auto industry making a come back, I dont see this happning again. Japan gave us a chance and we blew it on greed. Detroit can not get it through their thick heads that big h2s and yukons are not going to sell. Toyota and hybreads are where it is at. or alt. energy source cars. I think between the greed of the auto industry and short sitedness and the greed of the unions they have worked togeather to kill the indsutry, while one was holding the spike the other was driving it in the coffin. And at the same time china and japan have ran past the us auto industry. Coupled with a war gone bad, a dropping dollar,and a weak economy and getting worse it lookes bad for the whole country but michigan will lead the pack for the pain felt. I know of some people who are hoping to buy a home cheap and have it turn around in the next year. I personaly do not think michigan can turn around in one year. I think it is going to be several years of hurt even if things were done now to start MI on the right path, it would take 3 to 4 years to turn it around, and this is if the whole economy does not flush. Things are not looking good, and all the pundits that said things were not going to go into ressission are now saying not a bad ressission. I dont see bottom yet. |
