"There are some properties that you can buy for $150,000 to $200,000, so you don't always need two people to buy a house," says Javier Rodriguez, the owner of and broker with Lake Michigan Realty Mgmt. He's been selling in the area for 16 years. Wyoming isn't known for walkable commercial areas, but residents can find major retailers in two district shopping corridors in Clyde Park.

Most homes to "get multiple offers"

Most homes were built between the 1930s and 1950s. They sit snuggly along quiet maple and sidewalk-lined suburban streets. Homes in the area move quickly due to competitive pricing. "We've been having fewer listings right now, so when houses come up, we get multiple offers," Rodriguez says. Smaller one- to four-bedroom craftsman bungalows, Cape Cod and workmen cottages can sell for between $120,000 and $200,000. Larger three- to four-bedroom Colonial Revival, ranch-style, Cape Cod and craftsman cottages can start around $200,000 and sell for more than $320,000.
