Adatowne is a popular entry level home market in the Ada area of
the Greater Grand Rapids metropolitan area.
Part of the appeal is the proximity of Ada Elementary, Forest Hills
Central Middle and High Schools, Ada Christian Schools, St Roberts
School and being close to the village of Ada. Adatowne is an
established subdivision, started in the early 1970's by E.L. Ladd
Builders of Ada.
I have held many open houses in these new plats
and sold many of the homes as new construction - to be built.
If you doubt the power of your home as an investment, a basic
ranch (about 1000 sq ft) sold for $ 19,900 in 1975.

MARKET SYNOPSIS: Absorption Rate for Adatowne is 4.2 months,
which means it would take 4.2 months for the 3 active listings to sell,
if no other homes entered the market, according to current sales
statistics. The price per square foot here really tells the story: Active
listings are averaging $ 105/sqft and sold are averaging $ 91/sqft.
With the new trend of consumers downsizing and the popularity of
Forest Hills Schools, the real estate market should remain strong
and viable for Adatowne homes, as long as they are in "great
condition" and priced at less than $100 sq ft.
