What makes the Clare County market different
- 45% of housing units in Clare County stand vacant, against 10% nationally. An empty house still carries taxes, insurance and upkeep, and owners who inherited one or moved away are often ready to talk about selling.
- Homes in Clare County are newer than the national mix: 6% were built before 1940, against 12% for the U.S. Newer houses usually need less work before a resale or a rental.
- 25% of Clare County residents are 65 or older, against 17% nationally. An older owner base is where estates, downsizing moves and inherited homes come from.
- HUD sets the fair market rent for a 3-bedroom home for the Clare County, MI area at $1,242 a month, against a median home value of $117K in Clare County. Set those two side by side to judge whether a buy-and-hold rental pencils out before you make an offer.
