The history of Alpena MI real estate began with commercial fishing, which is still an active industry in the area. Logging, limestone and cement helped to grow the city. The Besser Company and the Lafarge Corporation, specializing in concrete and related products, are still major employers in the area.

Also important to the economy and thus the value of Alpena Michigan real estate, is tourism. Alpena Light is a frequently photographed light house at the mouth of the Thunder Bay River. The area is popular for hunting, fishing, camping and water sports. The Alpena IceDiggers, a hockey team, make their home in the city.

If you are an Alpena MI real estate owner, you should know that it generally takes several months to find a buyer. So, if your home has been on the market for a while, then you are not alone. That may not make you feel any better, but at least you know that it’s normal.

Once a buyer is found, if all goes well with their credit application, they have the necessary downpayment and verifiable income to qualify for the monthly mortgage payment, then it can still take another month or so for the sale to be finalized. During all of this time, you are still responsible for your monthly mortgage payments. If you have already relocated or you need to move quickly, this may be more time than you can afford.

Our unique lease option plan (also known as rent to own) is one option that can help. We have a unique system that allows us to "sell" properties before we even buy them. This may sound strange but it's true -- and highly effective.

Because we can get bruised credit tenant/buyers into our program first, we have a lot of leverage with home sellers who need to sell their homes and are willing to work on terms. We also have other options for frustrated sellers. We look for a win-win situation. We are experienced Michigan real estate investors and we are ready and willing to help.

Our plans work in other areas of Michigan as well (such as here in Southeast Michigan where we are located), so (just as an example) if this is your vacation home and you own a home in another city, we can help you sell that property, too.

If you are interested in buying Alpena MI real estate, but you have bruised credit, you may think that you are only daydreaming. But, homeownership can be a reality, probably sooner than you think. Because of the changing job market in Michigan, many people’s credit scores have suffered. But, regardless of the reason, there is help.

We have a unique system for you, the bruised credit tenant-buyer, who is ready for home ownership and is sick of wasting money on rent.

If you are currently employed and you can afford to rent, then it’s likely that you can afford to own. Even if you have been turned down for traditional financing, our unique lease option program can work for you.

If you have a few thousand for a downpayment or “option consideration”, then you could eventually own one of those properties in the Alpena Michigan real estate listings. It’s just a matter of time and a matter of working with the right people. That’s where we come in.

Come discover what we can do for you, whether you are a buyer or a seller.
