What makes the Otsego County market different
- 26% of housing units in Otsego 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 Otsego County are newer than the national mix: 4% were built before 1940, against 12% for the U.S. Newer houses usually need less work before a resale or a rental.
- 80% of homes in Otsego County are single-family detached houses (U.S.: 61%), so most deals here are standalone houses, the easiest kind to value against nearby sales and to resell.
- HUD sets the fair market rent for a 3-bedroom home for the Otsego County, MI area at $1,511 a month, against a median home value of $196K in Otsego County. Set those two side by side to judge whether a buy-and-hold rental pencils out before you make an offer.
