A clearer next step for your Kentwood home.
Kentwood homes range from single-family houses in established neighborhoods and suburban subdivisions to condos and apartment communities along corridors like East Paris. Whatever you own, Doorbloom helps you take a look at your options with real estate professionals at your own pace.
Kentwood sits on the southeast side of Grand Rapids and was once Paris Township. Residents voted to incorporate it as a city in 1967, in part to stop neighboring cities from annexing more of its land. Its housing is a mix of single-family homes, suburban subdivisions and established neighborhoods, along with condo communities. The Paul Henry Rail Trail and the East-West Trail run through town.
Housing types vary by area. The East Paris area has many apartment buildings mixed with some single-family homes, while neighborhoods such as Forest Hill and Cedar Mill are long established. The city runs a rental inspection program as part of its oversight of rental property. Whatever your home's age or style, describing it honestly, including roof age, basement condition, water history, recent updates and any HOA or condo association, helps the right professionals respond.

Know your options before you decide.
| Topic | Doorbloom | Listing with an agent | Selling it yourself |

| Cost to you | Free to list your home | Commission, usually a share of the sale price | Your time, marketing and paperwork |
| Who you hear from | Professionals you choose | Buyers and buyers’ agents | Anyone who finds your listing |
| Repairs before selling | Share the condition as it is | Often recommended | Up to you |
| Showings | Only with people you approve | Showings and open houses | You schedule and host them |

Every home is different. Listing with an agent can bring a higher price, especially for move-in-ready homes. Doorbloom is one option, and we encourage you to compare before you decide.

How can I check property taxes or recorded liens on a Kentwood home?
Property tax balances are handled by the City of Kentwood Treasurer, and recorded documents like deeds and liens by the Kent County Register of Deeds. Links to both are in the official resources section on this page.
I have unpaid property taxes on my Kentwood home. Who do I talk to?
Current city tax bills are paid to the City of Kentwood Treasurer. Taxes still unpaid on March 1 are turned over to the Kent County Treasurer for collection, so older balances are handled there. Either office can confirm what is owed and how to pay it.
