Here is a quick neighborhood update of all the sold homes in Huntington Park Subdivision in Plymouth MI in the last 365 days as of 9/13/2012.  Even though the days on the market show 18 and 9 these homes must have been relisted several times as new listings when they lowered the price.  The actual days on the market was 200 days. Just a guess I would say these homes either were near the large cell tower or near the expressway.  It is fine to buy a house near an expressway or cell tower if you do not mind it and you get a great price on it.  Remember when you sell the home that it will take longer and again it will sell for less than other comparable homes in the area because of the cell tower or expressway.   ADDRESS LIST PRICE SALE PRICE DOM SP PER SQFT SQ FT    YEAR BUILT SHORT SALE 1... 09/19/2012
