This is CRAZY. Homes are selling in Minnesota! Out of the last 50 homes or so that I have tried to set up a showing for that have not been day 1 on the market...I would say about 45 of them have been sold. Some of these are short sales that are accepting back up offers only and many others are the bank owned homes that just recently accepted offers so often they still are listed ACTIVE but are actually not available.

I would say the tax credit is working. The inventory is clearing out. If your a seller and your house is price right it is going to sell and sell fast. So if your thinking about selling now is the time to do it.

CRAZY market! But good for both buyers and sellers who are in the market! For questions or assistance with buying or selling a home in Anoka, Sherburne, Isanti, Mille Lacs, Wright and Chisago counties call me.

Chuck, This is good news! We have also seen a dent in our market on properties under $120K that are neat and clean. It's a combination of first time homebuyers, investors, and out of the area buyers. Many of these prperties are seeing multiple offers.

Hey Chuck! It is about the same here in the Marietta and Alpharetta area. If a house is priced well it will sell...and quickly. And definitely the condition and location play a big part in this.

Sounds like the First Time Home Buyer Credit is working in your area too. Love the action and your enthusiastic portrayal of it.

We're pretty sure that the tax credit has been working out here, as well as the Stimulus money. Home sales have been up for 13 consecutive months and prices up or flat for 7 consecutive months. When August figures are released, I expect 13 and 7 to magically turn into 14 and 8.
