Most homes here finance inside the 2026 conforming limit of $832,750, so conventional, FHA and VA are all in play. Newer construction is common, so compare any builder incentive against an outside quote, and expect the appraisal to lean on recent sales in the same subdivision. Condo purchases need the association to meet the lender's project rules. The year after a Michigan home sells, its taxable value resets to half of the assessor's market value, so the seller's tax bill is not your tax bill. We run the numbers with your actual taxes and insurance before you write an offer.
Nearly every Holland Township purchase fits well under the 2026 conforming limit of $832,750, so loan size is rarely the constraint.
The market
The typical home value in Holland Township is near $275,100, the median for owner-occupied homes in the Census Bureau's American Community Survey, which counts about 10,800 owner-occupied homes here.

Homeowners pay a median of about $2,860 a year in property taxes, an effective property tax rate of about 1.04% of the median value.
