Think outside the box. This newer contemporary 900 sq. ft office was built to be an executive retreat. Now bank owned and priced at a low $75,000. Here’s a twist why not make the simple conversion of this space into a wonderful 1 or 2 bedroom condominium. It already has a beautiful fireplace, nice cabinets and wet bar that could very economically be converted into a kitchen and the all the bath needs is a shower. Township SAU would be required but the reward would be great. This building is located just a few blocks from Downtown Saugatuck and would make an excellent summer rental and it this price you should definitely make this property cash flow. What else could you find in this good of condition at this low of a price. Call Dick Waskin or Bill Rowe at RE/MAX Saugatuck-Douglas 269/857-2191 to view this property before it is gone.
How to Mend Foreclosures in Saugatuck
Friday, December 2nd, 2011A foreclosure can do more than ruin your view, they can hurt the financial health of your neighborhood. But you don’t have to let it ruin your home equity.
Prevention makes the biggest difference. Be a good neighbor. If you know one of your neighbors is going to foreclose find out what you can do to help keep the property looking nice and be sure to maintain your property. If the neighborhood looks nice chances are the foreclosure won’t be vacant long.

“Fixing” Your Home’s Layout
Monday, October 24th, 2011One of the first things homebuyers look for when shopping for Michigan real estate is the layout of the house. Like the location of the house and its overall size, layout is one of the things about a home that cannot be changed without a very large time and money investment.
In the current Saugatuck real estate market, many of the things that make a house unique – its paint color, flooring, the kitchen counters, and even the size or type of the windows – are being upgraded to entice buyers. But if your home has a restricting layout, which makes the house look smaller, darker, or inaccessible, you might have a difficult time making a “quick fix” to increase your chances of a fast sale.
When is it the best time to buy in Saugatuck?
Wednesday, October 19th, 2011Many customers ask me when is the best time to buy in Saugatuck. This being a wonderful Lake Michigan resort area, people wonder when is the right time to make an offer. It used to be after summer season, there would be more properties on the market for sale when people shuttered up their cottages. Now that people come to Saugatuck to get away from the city at all times of the year there is no one time when there are more listings then others. What I can say is that mortgage interest rates are the best that they have ever been in history and that there are great buys to be had in the area. In my 27 years of selling real estate here in Saugatuck and Douglas, I don’t think I have seen a better time to buy. Please give us a call at: 269-8572191 or email at remax@wmol.com and we can share with you some great listings that are available in town, on the harbor or on Lake Michigan. Dick Waskin
