Luxury log cabin living. 7.5 wooded acres. River frontage. Massive stone fireplace.

This property feels less like a house and more like the kind of place families stay for decades. 🌲

10117 Hawthorne Ln | Byron, MI
Would you trade subdivision living for this kind of privacy?

Good outcome from today’s Okemos inspection:
A few minor issues, all manageable, and moving toward resolution before closing.
That’s how most inspections actually go. Not drama. Just clarity and negotiation.

[Chris Silker | Advantage In Team @AdvantageInTeam]

The kitchen gets the attention.

The basement tells the truth. 😅

Today’s inspection in Okemos focused on moisture, structure, and mechanicals — the stuff buyers often overlook during showings.

[Chris Silker | Advantage In Team @AdvantageInTeam]

A home inspection in Okemos isn’t about finding a “perfect” house.

It’s about understanding what your family is walking into before you commit for the next 10+ years. 🏡

Today with McNamara Inspections helping buyers move forward with confidence instead of guesswork.

Another successful closing. Jeff and Amanda are officially on to their next chapter and couldn’t be happier. Grateful to help great sellers through the process and get this one to the finish line.

Want to know where the Lansing housing market is headed?

Don’t start with prices.

Watch what’s happening underneath:
• New LIstings
• Price Drops
• Pending Sales

Those move first. Prices follow.

One of the biggest mistakes people make:
Thinking the Lansing market is one thing.

It’s not.

Every neighborhood moves differently.
Different prices, different demand, different timing.

Your ZIP code tells the real story.

If you’re buying in Lansing right now:

You’ve got more leverage than you did 1–2 years ago.

📍 More listings
📍 Fewer bidding wars
📍 Less pressure to rush

It’s not a buyer’s market yet—but it’s moving that way.

📸 Quick Lansing market snapshot (2026):

📌 Homes selling: ~3–7 weeks
📌 Inventory: ~3.2 months
📌 Prices: mostly stable

Translation → still competitive,
but starting to shift toward balance.

Not a crash. Just a reset.
