About Michigan

Selling a house in Michigan

Lansing is Michigan's capital, and Detroit, Grand Rapids, Warren, and Sterling Heights are its largest cities. The state is the historic home of the U.S. auto industry, and its two peninsulas border four of the five Great Lakes.

Michigan is home to about 10,140,459 people across 83 counties. We buy houses in every one of them, from Wayne County, Oakland County, Macomb County, and Kent County to the smallest rural counties, and in cities like Detroit, Grand Rapids, Warren, Sterling Heights, Ann Arbor, and Lansing.

Its economy runs on automotive manufacturing, advanced manufacturing, healthcare, agriculture, tourism and financial services. Major employers include General Motors, Ford Motor Company, Stellantis, Dow, Stryker, and Whirlpool, and the state is home to University of Michigan, Michigan State University, and Wayne State University. Visitors know it for Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore, Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore, Isle Royale National Park, and The Henry Ford.

In Michigan, 62% of the housing went up before 1980 and 27% of households are renters. About 12% of homes stand empty. Older houses often need work a listing would expect you to fix first; we buy them as-is, with no repairs or cleaning. Rentals sell with tenants in place, and we pay the closing costs.

Selling a house in Michigan closes through a title company, which records the deed with the county and settles any liens or back taxes from the sale. Official information is on the state's portal, Michigan.gov, and property tax questions go to the Michigan Department of Treasury.

The real cost of listing

What listing your Michigan house really costs you.

The asking price isn't what you take home. On a typical sale, around 10–12% of the price goes to commissions, closing costs and concessions, before repairs and the months of waiting.
