The Minneapolis Real Estate Weekly Update

The Twin Cities Real Estate Market still continues to have a huge supply of active mls listings for sale. Right now, inventory levels are near the 43,000 active listings on the market here in the Twin Cities area alone. To give you an idea, four years ago, the Twin Cities had about 11,000 actives on the market.

With this huge increase in townhomes in Minnesota, Minnesota condos, mls listings mn, mls listings minnesota, minnesota duplexes, minneapolis duplexes, minnesota investment property, and all other types of properties found on the minnesota mls, sellers are really being forced to price their properties realistically. They also are being forced to get the home in tip top condition!

Bank owned listings are becoming much more common as well. With so many foreclosures here in the Twin Cities, you are seeing more and more bank owned listings for sale.

With our team's marketing plan, we have seen an increase in sales of about 13% this year (compared to last year's sales at this exact time.)  With our Guaranteed Sale program, our two hour radio show, The Minnesota Real Estate Show, our local television advertising, as well as our internet advertising, we are still getting properties sold for our sellers. To date, our team has 144 sales for 2007. 

At the end of the day, The Minnesota Real Estate Team is about bringing results to our sellers and buyers.

The Minnesota Real Estate Market - Weekly Update

I hope everyone is having an outstanding Memorial Day weekend! The weather here is still a bit chilly....very similar to our local Minnesota real estate market. We topped out at nearly 43,000 active listings on the MLS here in the Twin Cities this past week.  Last year at this exact time, we had 38,000 active listings.  So even compared to one year ago (which incidentally was a heavy buyers market), inventory on the Minnesota MLS has continued to grow.

We are seeing a large number of MLS listings in Minnesota: townhomes, condos, lofts, duplexes, houses...really all type of properties on the market here in Minnesota.  Homes that are priced correctly are still moving though.  Staging is also becoming crucial! 

If you have the chance, call in this Saturday, 11- 1 PM, to the Minnesota Real Estate Show, www.MnRealEstateShow.com  We talk about our market, share ideas with sellers on how to get their properties sold, and bring you some of our Preferred Partners on a weekly basis. If you are looking for a home inspector, stager, property management company, financial planner, insurance agent, handyman.....you name it, we have them on air. 

Enjoy the rest of your Memorial Day weekend!

We continue to have more and more type of properties put on the market. However you want to classify them:  mls listings minnesota, mls listings mn, mn mls, minnesota real estate, minnesota townhomes, minnesota condos, minneapolis houses, minneapolis real estate.  You name it, we have alot of them on the market right now.

Again, property in Minnesota that is priced correctly and marketed aggressively is selling. We are also finding homes that are staged are moving quite well. We had a few of our listings from our radio show, www.MnRealEstateShow.com sell this past week. The staging done by our awesome Preferred Partners, Kristin Register and Heather Rectanwahl really makes a huge difference.

The market here continues to be a heavy buyers market. A great time to look at purchasing for buyers!

We are really focusing on pricing our clients' listings correctly, and plugging them into our team's effective marketing plan.  In this buyers' market, working with a team that has the knowledge to price your home correctly, and a team that will spend marketing dollars to get your home SOLD, are essential.

Current Minnesota Real Estate Market

I wanted to talk about the various type of properties for sale and the overall state of the Twin Cities real estate market at this time. Currently, we are experiencing a heavy, heavy buyers market. Inventory levels in the metro area alone have topped 41,000 listings. A balanced market is near the 20,000 mark.  With so many condos, townhomes, lofts, duplexes, and fourplexes for sale in Minnesota, sellers are forced to price their properties aggressively. They are also forced to get their property in "tip top" showing condidtion

On our weekly radio show on Saturdays, The Minnesota Real Estate Show, www.MnRealEstateShow.com, we generally start each show talking about the current market conditions. We are hoping the inventory levels begin to drop in the upcoming months, but with the recent increase in foreclosures, we are seeing more and more homes go up for sale.

With this increased inventory level, investors in Minnesota real estate are having a great time finding "deals."  Many sellers are forced to sell at a discount, and bank owned properties are for sale on just about every street corner.

If you have the chance, stop on out to our free real estate investing seminars. For more info, go to www.InvestmentPropertyGuys.com 

At these seminars, we talk about the various properties a person could find through a realtor on the MLS (mls listings minnesota, mls listings mn, mn mls, mls minnesota, minnesota mls, minnesota condos, minnesota townhomes, mn condos, minneapolis condos, mn townhomes, minneapolis townhomes). We also talk about how our team helps you get these properties rented out through our own real world investing experience.

With fewer and fewer buyers able to purchase a home now (with the recent fallout in the subprime lending world), more and more people are forced to rent.  Rental demand has seen an increase across the board here in the Minnesota real estate market.  Rents will continue to rise over this coming year in 2007.

Look for another update soon!
