About This Home
As of March 2025Looking for a bargain? Check out this gem—this is literally the cheapest home on MLS currently and its in NE Grand Rapids!!! Perfect for those who don't mind a little sweat equity. Imagine the possibilities: transform this fixer-upper into your dream home or a prime investment. Sure, it's got character (and maybe a few cobwebs), but with a little elbow grease, this is a perfect flip or future home. Roll up your sleeves and bring a flashlight. Although it was recently lived in, I have a hard time breathing the inside air. Don't miss your chance to own the cheapest house in town—your future self will thank you!''
