The Bristol House
IN PROGRESSAn 1880 two-story on a fieldstone foundation, on nearly half an acre. New roof and windows, a second full bath added upstairs, the main floor opened up, and every system replaced behind the walls.
"Real estate, done right, can leave everything it touches better than it found it." That's the whole business plan.
Most property companies do one thing. Modra is built as three that work as one: care that keeps a property at its best, renovation that takes a house to the studs and rebuilds it with intention, and capital that structures the funding — secured lending partners for the big builds, Modra's own capital for the rest.
We serve Grand Rapids, Holland, and the surrounding West Michigan lakeshore — streets we drive every day. Every house has a second draft; we write it, fund it, and maintain it.
Each division is run by someone who answers for the outcome. Clear scopes, flat quotes, permitted work, and finishes that hold up at resale and at 6 a.m. on a Tuesday.
Ongoing upkeep, done right. Monthly care plans — cleaning, exterior upkeep, curb appeal, seasonal work — plus à-la-carte gutter, roof, and handyman visits. New Modra homeowners get a month of Essential Care on us.
Taken to the studs. Rebuilt with intention. Full renovations led by a licensed Michigan Residential Builder — permits pulled, trades vetted, before-and-after documented.
How projects are funded: conservative underwriting, secured lending partners on every large project, and Modra's own capital for the small and swift. Structured before the first swing of a hammer.
Everything that faces the lake-effect sky — replaced, repaired, sealed and made to last a Michigan winter.
Monthly care with a three-month minimum, then month-to-month. First visits run a little deeper — we're learning your house, not just passing through.
A home is most people's biggest investment and their softest place to land. We treat every one like it's ours — veteran-owned, owner-led, and accountable from the first handshake to the final walkthrough.
Service that shows up when it said it would, does what it quoted, and leaves the place better than it found it.
You know the number before a single tool comes off the truck. No surprises, no creeping change orders.
Specialized work is done by licensed professionals under a licensed Michigan Residential Builder — permits pulled, inspections passed.
Every division is run by someone who answers for the outcome personally. When you call Modra, an owner picks up.
No fine print, no runaround. If you're wondering it, someone else asked it first.
Grand Rapids, Holland, and the surrounding West Michigan lakeshore. If you're near the edge of that, ask — we'd rather tell you honestly than stretch.
Monthly plans with a three-month minimum, then month-to-month. First visits run deeper — we're establishing a baseline, not just passing through.
Maintenance work we handle directly. Anything requiring permits or a licensed trade runs through Modra Properties under a licensed Michigan Residential Builder — with the permit pulled and the inspection passed.
The number you approve is the number you pay. If we find something genuinely unexpected behind a wall, we stop, show you, and you decide before anything else happens.
Yes. If it needs work, that's our favorite kind. No agents, no repairs, no listing hassle — we walk it, make an honest offer, and close on your timeline.
Three divisions, one roof, and an owner who answers for each. The same people who underwrite the deal swing the hammers and come back to maintain it.
Modra is deliberately small — every project gets an owner's eyes, twice.
Acquisition, underwriting, and capital. Victor finds the houses worth a second draft, runs the numbers conservatively, and structures the funding to fit the project.
Care and upkeep, run with military follow-through. Kyle leads Property Services — clear communication, honest scopes, and properties kept at their best year-round.
Through the Pledge 1% movement, every Modra project gives back to the community it stands in — funded, and hands-on.
One percent of every project goes to West Michigan organizations doing the quiet, essential work in the neighborhoods where we build.
We show up in person — packing and delivering Sack Suppers with Kids' Food Basket, serving kids across the Grand Rapids area.
A Modra rebuild raises the street with it — restored facades, safe systems, and a finished home a family is proud to own.
A short list, on purpose. We take on what we can stand behind — and we'd rather show you two done right than ten in progress.

Not every project is a gut rehab — some houses just need a crew that keeps showing up. Roof and gutter cleaning, seasonal work, curb appeal, and the small repairs that never make it onto anyone's list.
