Saline Valley Farms

Saline Valley Farms is located South of Saline off Saline-Milan Rd. This is a gorgeous subdivision with it’s own private lake, Lake Ella.

The history of Saline Valley Farms is very interesting to read. Jim Cameron, a history teacher in Saline High School has written a great book on it. To quote:

“The Saline Valley Farms, a farm cooperative on nearly 1000 acres, 3½ miles south of town, was begun by Harold S. Gray in 1932. Oral historian James Cameron has written, “(The venture) attracted struggling families during depression years. Over one hundred members lived with their families on site and worked cooperatively to operate a dairy, orchards, poultry house, and gardens. Success mushroomed as members developed a store at the farm to sell to the public and used delivery vans to bring fresh produce and canned goods to Detroit and the suburbs. By the mid-1950s, with the death of the cooperative’s founder and a recovering economy and job market, second generation members of SVF families were attracted to life other than farming.” It should be noted that most of the residents came to SVF from outside the Saline area, but many these families opted to remain in our area after the Valley Farms closed down.”

Even now if you drive out to Saline Valley you will find many of the cottages remaining in the back of the property.

Saline Valley Farms in Saline Michigan

What price per square footage are homes selling for in Saline, MI?

Below you will see two graphs, one from Altos Research and one from Affinity Valuation Group, in Ann Arbor. I remember when Saline was very consistent in the price per square footage, it was $150.00 to 4152.00 per square foot. I worked with an engineer to purchase a home in 2006 and he had every house we looked at in Saline on an excel sheet. Sure enough it was consistent all across the board.

These two different opinions are very close between $119.00 and $122.00 per square feet.  One of the primary things appraisers look at when they are appraising a property to sell is square footage and they try to get homes as close as possible to based on the square footage.

Appraisers look at different variables but this is a big one. If you are selling your home in Saline, this is important to keep in mind.
