eden prairie realtor: MSP Spring Real Estate Outlook! - 03/20/21 08:18 AM
This Spring 2021 market is the strongest seller-driven market.
Homes in fair condition (and reasonably priced), are typically receiving:
-Multiple Offers (in some cases 15 - 20 offers) 
(that is not a typo...there are just so few homes on the market for buyers to choose from, especially in the mid and lower price ranges.) 
-"Appraisal Gap" Coverage in Cash
-Most homes selling 6-12% over list price
-Increased Earnest Money
-Seller Dictating Extended Closing Dates
-Waived or Reduced Buyer Inspections
This has become the "new normal", at least with the the current market cycle...as the forecast below suggests, it appears that this year will likely set another record with historically low … (1 comments)

eden prairie realtor: Do I really "need" to replace my siding? - 08/25/20 11:02 AM
Do I "need" to replace my siding? 
 
Many homeowners do not do exterior maintenance on their home. It is not very exciting, it takes time, and it is not cheap! For instance, how many HGTV shows spend a bunch of time and money doing siding! NONE! So, it can become something ignored or a more accurate term "deferred", which is a kind way of saying you are ignoring something for one reason or another.
 
So, lets say you buckle down, and have the home completely redone with vinyl or any number of composite exterior products for $25,000-$40,000. That can certainly do the trick, … (1 comments)

eden prairie realtor: SIX Basic Steps to finding a Real Estate Agent you can trust - 11/05/19 09:37 PM
When making large buying or selling decisions it is vitally important that you choose a Realtor that not only has experience and proven results over time, but also puts you at ease "emotionally" and takes their fiduciary (loyal counseling) duties seriously.... Here are some practical tips to help the process:
Do some "online" research: Is this Realtor respected in your area, by their peers, and has strong and relevant reviews/testimonials about their performance? Do some "old school" research: Ask your friends and family who they might recommend. Is this agent active and invested in your community? (Church, Parent Boards, Sports, or … (0 comments)

Kirk with his wife, Julie and their son Cooper
 
First, I know what you are thinking. Is this guy crazy? Well, think of it this way. Has there ever been bursts of real estate sales due to "forces" that didn't have any base in logic? Of course there has been.... Let's ponder shall we.
I have had clients buy homes because they really like the neighbors, (one example is a client liking the idea of a MN State Trooper being across the street from his young family) even if the house is not "all" what they really want... Even, the smell of a … (0 comments)

eden prairie realtor: FEMALE POWER!!! - Ladies are FAR more likely than men to buy a home! - 02/07/18 06:08 AM
According to NAR’s (National Association of Realtors) 2016 Profile of Home Buyers & Sellers, the share of recent homebuyers who were single at the time of purchase held steady at 24% last year.
The percentage of first-time buyers who were single females rose to 17% (up from 16%), as the share of single men dropped from 11% to 8%.
The primary stated reason for buying a home amongst singles was the simple yet very powerful desire to own a home of their own.
