Welcome!
It's hard to believe that summer is coming to an end. Soon the leaves will be changing color and begin to fall. September brings the start of school, football and apple picking at your favorite orchard.
September also starts the fall housing season. Record-low mortgage rates and falling home inventory continue to bolster home construction and the housing market. Condos and lake properties are hot right now too. Now is the time to take advantage of these great opportunities.

Lakeshore buyers seize their chance
Article by: JIM BUCHTA
Low lakeshore prices are enabling those once priced out of the market to get a crack at a slice of shoreline.
Even as summer winds down, Minnesotans are headed to the lake. With their wallets.
Buyers are snapping up waterfront properties at an astounding clip, with sales of these homes outpacing purchases of traditional houses in some areas. It's a dramatic shift for a segment that was clobbered by the recession as would-be buyers put their dreams of a lakefront house on hold. But today's pre-boom prices are giving these buyers a chance to get these homes at quite a bargain.

Downtown condos back as hot property
Article by: JIM BUCHTA
Low supply and high demand in Minneapolis are spurring a revived building boom.
It was only five years ago that downtown Minneapolis was awash in condominiums, but one of the last condo developments to break ground was in 2007 -- and that building has just a sole unit left.
Yes, downtown has become one of the tightest condo markets in the Twin Cities metro area, with fewer than 150 units available for sale at a time when demand for urban living continues to grow every year.
Several developers are taking notice and are ready to infuse downtown Minneapolis with new units. One of the first projects will come from Jim Stanton, a veteran developer who plans to build the Park Vista in the historic Mill District. The 12-story tower will eventually bring 169 new condos to the market.
