Honest Realtor Blog in the Twin Cities

If you are looking for homes, chances are that you are using the Local MLS. For the Twin Cities it called The Northstar MLS. This is by far the best way to search for homes. But you need to know, all you are seeing are the listings. You are not seeing current market trends, how long a certain property has been on the market, what percentage of list price properties are being sold for in that area, if a property is a Short Sale and the history of property.

These are just a few of the reasons you NEED to hire a reliable, knowledgable Realtor. Trust me, I know people don't like Realtors. I became Realtor after I bought my first house. Yes, my Realtor really "took" us on that one. Since then (2001) I have had a lot of Real Estate transactions, I bet I could count on one hand how many Realtors I would want to work with again in that time.

The Bottom line is this...There is alot of information that go's along with any Real Estate Transaction and you need to make sure have someone in your corner.

As Always, if you in the Minneapolis/St. Paul and surrounding areas. I am available via email or cell phone for free, no obligation advice.
