About Macomb Township

Macomb Township is one of Michigan's fastest-growing communities and has been for two decades. The township's northern location in Macomb County — further from Detroit but with more land available for development — has made it a builder's market, with new construction communities continuously opening in its vast open acreage. The result is a township full of newer homes, larger lots, and modern amenities.

The community is family-oriented with strong school district performance, good parks, and the active new construction market that gives buyers options not available in more built-out cities. The growth trajectory shows no signs of slowing, driven by buyers who want new construction without paying Oakland County prices.

Real Estate Overview

Macomb Township is almost entirely a newer-construction or newer-vintage market — the bulk of the housing stock dates from the 1990s through today, giving buyers modern floor plans, updated systems, and garage space that older Macomb County communities can't match. Builder communities with active spec inventory are a consistent feature.

The market runs competitive for new construction and well-priced newer homes. The township's ongoing growth means it's not unusual to find a neighborhood where both resale and new-build options exist side by side.

What Your Budget Buys in Macomb Township

Entry Tier

$280K–$380K gets you a newer colonial in an established Macomb Township subdivision — often with larger lots than you'd find in Sterling Heights or Clinton Township.

Mid Range

$380K–$520K brings executive-level new construction, larger homes on generous lots, and premium subdivision communities.

Luxury Tier

Above $520K is the top of the Macomb Township market — custom builds, oversized lots, and the newest builder communities in the township's northern sections.

Sarah’s Take

Macomb Township is the growth story I've had a front-row seat to over the past two decades. When I started selling homes here, it was still considered the outer edge of the market. Today it's one of the most sought-after new construction addresses in Macomb County, and the families who planted roots here early have been rewarded with consistent appreciation.
