Here are the only two lakefront homes for sale on Walled Lake in Walled Lake & Novi.  If you didn't know before Walled Lake lies in both the city of  Novi and in the city of Walled Lake.  What is great about the lake is that the homes are only a short distance from 12 Oaks Mall and the surrounding shopping area.Walled Lake homes in Novi are sometimes the old cottages and some of the houses sit across the street from the lake.  So there is a road between the lake and the house.  The speed limit on the road is only 25 miles an hour so it is easy to cross over to the  lake.Homes on the lake are highly desirable because of the closeness of the lake to the expressway and Novi stores, and businesses.  You can live on a lake and have all the conveniences of living in a city.  Many Oakland Coun...

An Oakland County Michigan community, the beautiful City of Walled Lake is approximately 14 miles southwest of Pontiac and twenty miles northeast of Ann Arbor. Walled Lake is home to over 7,000 residents and is noted for its bustling community enveloped by a country atmosphere. A community that takes pride in its heritage and history. A walk through the beautiful downtown area is an enjoyable experience as you browse our quaint shops and restaurants. Walled Lake is located within close proximity to three major highways, I-96, M-59, and US-23 making for easy access to surrounding communities.

Walled Lake was first settled in the mid 1820’s when a Walter B. Hewett bought government land here. A Jesse Tuttle from Pennsylvania moved here and platted the land officially, with the first post office opening in 1833. The name was believed to have derived from the appearance of the areas’ lake, which looked like the waters were "walled" due to drift deposits or the action of water and ice. The village grew as a suburban area adjacent to Detroit, eventually incorporating as a city in 1954. Today, it remains a pleasant location for quality suburban living, complete with shopping plazas and well-kept residences situated around the lake and below I have a list of Walled Lake Michigan homes for sale as of today, 4-9-13. There are 5 homes for sale in Walled Lake Michigan at this time. The...

Yes your goal is my goal.   I want you to get the best possible price possible.  That is why I write all these Michigan home selling tips.  The nicer your house is, the more money you are going to get for it.    Many times it is a trade off.  How much more money will you get for your Walled Lake home for the amount you are putting into it?  Is the work worth the trouble?  These are questions you have to decide.   I am going through the same thing.  I am getting ready to sell a Livonia home I own.  I too am trying to figure out what upgrades to make and what makes sense financially.  I am very handy, but I do not have the time to do it all.  You will be going to be asking yourself the same questions.  Do I have the time?  Is it worth all the work?  Will I get my money back out of the hou...

Currently there are 3 Walled Lake foreclosures (Walled Lake Michigan) for sale. On average these Walled Lake foreclosures have been on the market for 32 days. I was talking to one of the big Walled Lake  foreclosure agents last week.  He was telling me he was getting multiple bids on all his Walled Lake foreclosures.  So what does that really mean to you?  It means bidding and the price you bid is very important.  That means you should have a good buyer’s agent on your side.   You need to know what the Walled Lake foreclosure is worth in the shape it is in.  I can get you the comps and explain how they compare to the foreclosure you are looking at.  This is today’s list 11/14/2011 of foreclosed homes in Walled Lake.  Call me at (313) 310-9855 to see any of these homes.

Walled Lake waterfront real estate homes range from 700 square foot to over 3500 square foot.  There are ranchs, cape cods, Bungalows, contemporary, and colonials that dot the lake.  Walled Lake waterfront homes range in age from the 1920's to 2007.   The lakefront properties that have been for sale lately range from $35,000 to over $500,000.   Like most of the Oakland County Lakefront homes you can have a 1928 700 square foot ranch home sitting next to a 2000 square foot colonial built in the 1970's.  It is a mixed bag of homes but 99% of them look great. On the east side of the lake the lake front homes actually sit across the road.  Usually there is a small grass area on the lake side where your docks are. I would venture a guess that about 40% of Walled Lake water front homes have a...

Is a no cost loan truly a no cost loan? And what is a no cost loan? Every loan has closing costs.  Usually every loan has appraisal costs bank processing or underwriting fees title insurance tile closing costs county recording fees These fees usually range from $1500 to $2200 on a Michigan mortgage.  But on a no cost loan what happens is the mortgage company or the loan officer pays those costs.  The mortgage company or loan officer pays for the appraisal cost, underwriting fees, title insurances costs, and recording fees. How do they do that do you ask?  It's easy because the higher the rate a mortgage lender sells you the more they make.  So let's say you are getting a 5.25% 30 year loan with $2200 in closing costs.  The mortgage lender may make 1% of the loan amount at 5.25%.  But at...

What should I be looking for is a common question I get from Oakland County first time home buyers?  What I tell them is you should be looking at the structure and the updates.  You need to look at the items that are going to cost you a lot of money.  Here are the seven big items (and one smaller one) you should be looking at. Roof -  How does the roof look?  Are there shingles missing?  Look at the valleys in the roof.  Are the shingles curling on the edges?  Is there one or two layers of shingles.  This give you a general idea of whether you are going to need to replace the roof in the next few years. Windows - Are they old?  Do they need replacing?  How is the wood around the windows? Exterior siding or woodwork?  Is it rotting or do pieces need replacing?  Or does it just need paint...
