despritfreya,
I am not sure what you are getting at. The cases you cite are irrelevant to the issue here of EXEMPT homestead property. Your cites concern sales of NON-EXEMPT property, one of which was a grossly undervalued piece of real estate. Cites to EXEMPT property would be relevant.
If you can cite a case which disallowed a homestead exemption as defined by MCL 600.5451(1)(m), then you may have a viable argument.
Otherwise the plain letter of the Michigan statute is clear and unambiguous with regards to what property is EXEMPT, and the rights to sell and keep the proceeds of the sale.
