Buying your first home, or wanting to move up to a larger home, or maybe relocating to West Michigan from another area? Dave Melvin of Greenridge Realty will be happy to assist you in your new home search, where ever it may be, but especially in Kent County and Montcalm County. Check out the featured listings or do a search of the entire area for the home of your dreams. You can search by school districts too, if schools are an important part of your home search, and often times they are.

An important fact for you to know is finding out who represents you in your home search. Dave recommends to all potential buyers that they work with an agent who represents their (buyer's) best interests. Realtors® in the state of Michigan are automatically representing all of the sellers in the state unless they have a signed agreement between themselves and their broker, and the buyer. If you think about it, when you see ads in the paper of homes for sale, all of these people are being represented by Realtors® who are "agents for the seller". To help you get the home of your dreams and be sure you are getting what is best for you, you should feel the need to have someone acting as your "agent for the buyer".

If you're looking to sell your current home, find out what its worth, then contact Dave for a quick, no obligation, and even more detailed evaluation of what your home should sell for in today's market. Pricing your home is not rocket science, but determining the price shouldn't be left to chance. Dave is an expert in residential marketing and promotion of Grand Rapids Real Estate. His enthusiasm and high energy level will start right out to create a marketing plan specific to your needs, assuring that your home sells in the most reasonable time, while bringing you the highest market value. You will be able to set up a time that is convenient for you (evenings and weekends are just fine) for you to show Dave around your house, then sit down and go over the complete market analysis and full marketing plan. You will see what has sold in your area to help determine what price to ask.

And if you're looking for a home, Dave's knowledge of the area, and West Michigan Real Estate is unparalleled. He will also be happy to assist you in your new home search, whether you are going to stay in the West Michigan area, move to another part of Michigan, or relocate to anywhere else in the United States or even another country. First time buyers are welcomed too, and if you're not sure what the process is, check out the Home Buyer Seminar.

Not only is Dave known for his strong sales ability, but he also exemplifies integrity, honesty, and dedication. He is committed to your complete satisfaction, so his clients receive the highest level of service the industry has to offer.
