Forest Hills MI Real Estate Market Report ~ Hidden Hills ~ January 2009

Hidden Hills is an established neighborhood of homes off Cascade Road

and 30th Street in Cascade Township, Michigan, a suburb of Grand Rapids

Home construction started here in the 1960's housing boom in the Forest

Hills School District and has continued through to today. There are new

homes still being built in this neighborhood.

Mid-size homes with quality construction are the rule, this suburban sub-

division area has been a desirable  place to live in the Grand Rapids home

market for many years.

MARKET SYNOPSIS: Hidden Hills average SOLD home price has

dropped  about $46K and about $12 /SqFt in the last 9 months.

Time on the market has increased and will probably continue to do so

for the winter months.  No new homes have come on the market and

many of the over priced homes in Hidden Hills have decided to not sell

in this market.  Price and condition are the two items buyers will

compare.  You can't get top price if your condition is vintage 1980's.

Today's buyers have too many choices to settle.
