mn home reports: The power and responsibility of a referral.... - 01/17/17 10:48 AM
Business growth and development comes from referrals in one form or another. Maybe you disagree, but let's think of that statement more broadly.....With innovative advertising, a strong market presence, or even a great "location/position", a business can certainly have and even maintain some success.

mn home reports: Today's First Time Homebuyers according to Zillow - 09/25/15 08:30 AM
While the role of first-time home buyers hasn’t changed much over time—vacating rental housing for starter homes—the characteristics of these new buyers has definitely evolved. Today’s first-time home buyers are older, less likely to be married and purchasing more expensive homes than previously.
What does this mean for real estate agents when these new buyers are ready to purchase a home? Understanding what drives their decisions can help you adjust your sales approach so that you resonate with these buyers, land more of them as clients and close more sales.
First Time Homebuyer's are several years older, more likely to be single, and sadly … (1 comments)

There has been a steady decrease in the percentage of homeowners that are underwater for the last 13 quarters in a row. Q2-2015 is no exception, 14.4% of homeowners nationwide owe more than their home is worth.  The average for condo owners is not as good with 1 in 5 (20%) are still upside down.   Here is four years of negative equity "healing" from Zillow

mn home reports: US Real Estate Sales Market: Pending Sales up .5% - 08/27/15 01:32 AM
Many experts were thinking the pending home sales market was going to go in the negative again after some poor June numbers, but that was not the case! Pending sales are up one half of one percent. That may not sound like much, but in the fickle and even "emotional" decisionmaking that home buyers and home sellers are making, any improvement "affirms" their continued activity.
