Redford, Michigan
Redford Township, Michigan

Redford is a western suburb of Detroit, Michigan that is 11.25 square miles.  Redford Michigan has 51,622 citizens. The postal zip codes are 48239 and 48240.  The upper Rouge River flows through the Lola Valley Park in the township.  Primarily a residential community with 20,605 housing units and a population density of 4,597.40 people per square mile for Census 2000. 

There are some commercial areas. The commercial areas are concentrated mainly in an area bounded by Telegraph Road (US-24), Plymouth Road (M-14), Interstate 96 Freeway, and Inkster Road. The CSX Railroad parallels the I-96 Freeway. Most of the major commercial development is found along Telegraph Road, a series of major mile roads, both east-west and north-south, complimenting the Telegraph Road and I-96 corridors which connect to the region.

Location

The township is bordered by Detroit to the East, Dearborn Heights to the South, Livonia to the West, and Southfield to the North.  I-96  and Telegraph Road (US -24) cut through the township providing easy access to I-94 and I-96.  You can get to anywhere in metro Detroit easily from 8 Mile Rd, Telegraph, I-96.  These major roads connect to M-14, I-275, I-75, I-94 and I-696.  The distance to the Michigan state capital is 70 miles. (as the crow flies)  Downtown Detroit is a short 15 -20 minute ride from Redford Michigan.

If you are searching for a new home where are the best bargains in Metro Detroit real estate? 

 I am noticing prices in older homes are dropping much faster than newer homes.  It is not unusual for homes in Canton, Redford, Dearborn to be selling for less than homes in South Lyon, Milford, Novi, or Northville.

While Canton has been hit hard in the Metro Detroit real estate crunch.  Redford I believe is taking a huge beating.  You can pick up a brick ranch if you shop hard for under $60,000.  I just got an offer accepted for one of my clients on a Redford home.  It is 950 square feet and we put in an offer for $68,000 with 12% sellers concessions.  The seller will contribute 6% for closing costs and 6% towards downpayment assistance.  So we are going to get this Redford brick ranch for about $59,900.  Not too bad of a deal.  There are many Redford homes that are selling for less than $50,000.   To search for Redford homes for sale click on the

Many Canton homes are hoovering around $100 a square foot, and many Dearborn ones are down under $100 a square foot too!

Email me at info@RussRavary.com for a list of Michigan foreclosures or bargain homes in Metro Detroit real estate.  I will work hard to search out all the great deals in Detroit homes and homes in the surronding counties including Wayne County, Oakland County, Livinston County. 

Here is the my quote of the day.

“May there always be work for your hands to do, may your purse always hold a coin or two. May the sun always shine on your windowpane, may a rainbow be certain to follow each rain. May the hand of a friend always be near you, may God fill your heart with gladness to cheer you.”
