Why Sell to Hometown?
When you are selling your Michigan house or a property you inherited, you may wonder why you should consider Hometown Development? You may be thinking of listing your property for sale. However, selling to a cash house buyer like us offers many benefits. Here are 4 reasons why you should choose Hometown:
First, Our Dedication to the Community
You may wonder what makes Hometown Development special? After all, you’ve probably seen those signs on light poles, posts (we don't do these, by the way! they're tacky and illegal!), and in yards that say “We buy Michigan houses – Sell your Michigan house fast.” With so many options available, what makes Hometown Development stand out?
We’re glad you asked! First, Hometown Development is exactly what our name implies. We are a local company whose mission it is to purchase homes in any condition and improve neighborhoods into something special. We are based here in Ada and most of our team members live within an hour drive. We are invested in the communities in Michigan, including Grand Rapids, Kentwood, Lowell, Wyoming, etc. and want to see them all thrive. You can feel good about selling your house to Hometown Development, knowing we care about more than just a purchase. We go above and beyond in our renovations to make sure that we create quality housing to be enjoyed by generations to come. Read More
Second, We Care!
Perhaps the best reason of all to choose Hometown Development is because we care about you and not just the transaction. We show this attitude from the start all the way through closing. First, we look at the entire situation before we make an offer and not just the condition and value of the home itself. We buy Michigan houses in many different types of situations. Sometimes the house needs to go through probate, which we can help take care of. Sometimes the house has title issues, which we can help take care of. No problem is too big, or too small, and you can rest assured that we have seen it all! We talk to you and get to know your goals and needs. We craft a fair offer, on a flexible timeline that you choose, so that both parties are winners in the sale.
We take care of all the paperwork, so you don’t have to. We understand how stressful it can be to try to figure out something unfamiliar on a timeline. We take charge while keeping you in the loop as you focus on other things, such as finding a new place to live or going through old family personal items in an inherited house. We can even help you find a new place to live, or help by having our crews move your furniture at no charge to you.
To make the situation even easier for you, we are happy to offer flexible closing dates. You decide when and where you would like to sell and we will make that happen. If you'd like a fast closing, then we can close on the purchase of your Michigan house in as little as five days. Read More

Fourth, We're Experienced
With over 150 houses purchased and renovated, we know exactly what steps to take to make it a stress-free, no-hassle transaction for you, the seller. We don’t get worried about little details because we know how to make everything work out in the end. You can relax, knowing you’re dealing with experienced professionals.
Here at Hometown Development, we specialize in buying Michigan houses that are not quite in move-in condition. As professional Michigan home buyers, we aren’t afraid of homes in poor condition. We have seen it all, just ask! Give us your leaky roof or cracked foundation. We’ll take on that mold or major repair. Problem tenants are no problem for us. If you find yourself in a tough financial situation, such as foreclosure or a house you inherited, we will help you navigate the legal process, and buy your property on a timeline that works for you.
When you want to sell your Michigan home fast (or on any timeline!) for cash, selling to Hometown Development means that you don’t have to worry about fees, multiple showings, Realtor commissions, closing costs, or other challenges. We provide the easy way out, no matter the situation. Whether you’re selling a home in probate, making a major life change, or buying another house, we can help.
We also specialize in rental properties for the landlord who is tired of managing tenants or owning a rental property that isn't producing cash flow. Maybe you’re feeling frustrated with a property management company and want to sell your rental property. We can help solve your problems by purchasing occupied (or vacant) rental properties, for cash, with a fast sale, and we will inherit the tenants.
Now that you know the benefits of selling to Hometown Development and all the ways that we are different, isn’t it time to move on with your life? Contact us today for a free, no-obligation offer. Read More

I dealt with Adam. He toured my house. Very friendly, professional, down-to-earth. We ended up not making a deal; couldn't agree on a price. But that's ok. Maybe another time. I would highly recommend Hometown Development.

How does it work?
4 easy steps.
1. Contact us and we'll ask a few questions about your house in order to give you a ballpark offer range to purchase your house.
2. If you like our offer range, then we will schedule a 20-30 minute in person walkthrough so that we can get a clear understanding of the condition of your house.
3. Once we have a clear understanding of the condition of your property, we give you a free written, no-obligation cash offer to buy your house.
4. If you decide to accept our offer, then we will close when and where you want!
Our team with another happy seller!
