Lenn--I cover several communities in the Twin Cities north metro and am trying to do some end of the year stats as reported by our MLS for each specific community. Sad thing is these numbers do not show the cummulative days on the market for relists nor the total price change from the relists. That does change things. I do longer reports with more details for those communities. CDOM is significantly longer in these communities...By a few months depending on price point.

Gary--Thanks...It goes with the Snapshot theme for these posts. The dog's feet are much warmer now. :)

Maggie--Each community is so different but one thing from this year is that new listings seem to be down in most communities which is good!

Gary--I just saw something about Wyoming, MI. It really confuses people that Wyoming, MN is a city. I get lots of calls and referrals for Wyoming the state.

Teri--Not all Twin Cities suburbs are that affordable but many in the north metro area. There are more expensive homes but the median price is skewed down because the higher priced homes sat on the market all year!

William--I am going to be posting "snapshots" of several north metro communties to give people an idea of how affordable some communities in the north metro are. Not all are as low priced as Wyoming but then fewer expensive homes sold last year so that will affect the average.
