You may need to contribute as little as $500 to purchase!
What if the money needed at closing is the biggest thing standing between you and buying a home?
At 842 Hall Street SE in Grand Rapids, eligible buyers may qualify for a $15,000 homebuyer grant. If you have been putting off a home search because saving for the down payment and closing costs feels out of reach, this is an opportunity worth a conversation.
And the home itself gives you plenty of reasons to take a closer look.
Five bedrooms give you options
With five bedrooms, two full bathrooms and approximately 1,596 square feet above grade, 842 Hall Street SE offers room to arrange your home around the way you live. Whether you need bedrooms, a home office, space for hobbies or a combination of uses, the additional rooms provide flexibility.
Hardwood floors and fresh paint inside and out create a welcoming backdrop for your next chapter. Recent improvements include a 2026 house roof, 2025 garage roof and 2025 heating system.
Central air adds comfort during warm weather, while the unfinished basement provides storage and the detached garage offers covered parking. The range, refrigerator, washer and dryer are included, making the move a little easier. Public water and sewer add everyday convenience.
Could a $15,000 grant help you purchase this home?
During the Veenstra Team’s research for this property, we uncovered a financing opportunity that could provide $15,000 in grant assistance to an eligible purchaser.
The program has been described to us as a true grant that does not need to be repaid and does not place an additional lien on the home. Depending on the approved mortgage program, assistance may help with the down payment and other eligible purchase expenses.
That could make a meaningful difference for someone who can manage a mortgage payment but needs help with the upfront cost of buying.
The grant is available through a specific participating lender and eligible mortgage programs. Buyers must qualify for both the mortgage and the assistance.
Who should call us to learn more?

Income limits apply, but the way income is counted can vary by mortgage program. Some options may consider the income used to qualify for the loan rather than all income earned by everyone in the household.
That means it is worth asking—even if you are unsure whether you fit the guidelines. The lender will review your income, credit, existing obligations and other requirements to determine what may be available.
You do not need to sort through the programs yourself before reaching out. We can help you get the right conversation started.
There may be another assistance option, too
Another Homebuyer Assistance Fund offers up to $7,500 toward down payment, closing costs and eligible prepaid expenses for qualifying purchasers.
This assistance is a zero-interest second mortgage with no monthly payments, forgiven after five years of qualifying primary-residence occupancy.
The program has its own requirements, including household income and asset limits, homebuyer education, mortgage preapproval and property standards. Applicants generally must not have owned a home within the past three years.
Whether the assistance can be combined with the $15,000 grant has not been confirmed. We can help you connect with the appropriate people to explore your options without assuming that both programs will apply.
