Trustees appoint Susie Armiak as township listing agent for two township properties
Summary
After reviewing submissions, trustees selected Susie Armiak to list and market one developed parcel and one vacant lot owned by the township; the board said the selection balanced experience and commission terms.
Grosse Ile Township trustees selected Susie Armiak to provide realtor services for the sale of two township parcels: a vacant lot at 20443 West River and a house at 25146 Dallas Drive.
The township solicited proposals from multiple realtors. Board discussion compared past sales volumes and commission structures among firms; trustees cited experience handling complex listings and the ability to address closing‑time issues. Staff reported several firms submitted regional proposals; Armiak’s proposal included a dual‑agency discount that reduced the township’s total commission when she serves as both listing and selling agent.
Trustees debated whether to interview top candidates or select a finalist immediately. Some members argued for interviews; others favored moving quickly because selling property carries carrying costs for taxpayers. After discussion, a motion to retain Susie Armiak passed on a voice vote.
Staff will finalize a listing agreement and begin marketing the properties. Trustees directed staff to proceed with standard sale processes; if negotiations reveal material new facts or require further board action, staff will return to the board.
