Shoreview, Minnesota attracts attention for many other reasons besides the twin, skyscraping, radio transmission towers reaching high 1400+ miles into the air. Though not officially incorporated until 1957, Shoreview has a rich history. A good portion of what is now known as Shoreview was once inhabited by Dakota and Ojibwe Native America tribes. It was ceded to the US Government from the Ojibwe in 1837 and soon became known as a farming community. The Soo line of the railroad expanded into Shoreview in the late 1800’s and soon New Englanders and other European settlers came to farm the land. The iconic radio towers weren’t built until much later in 1963 but those three towers on 694 are still the tallest structures in the state of Minnesota. According to the 2000 census, nearly 26,000 people called Shoreview home. No doubt this decade’s survey will only add to the number of residents in this vibrant community.
But what is happening in the Shoreview real estate market during the first half of 2011? Let’s take a look:
The Shoreview market appears strong for both single family andtownhomes/condos in all price points under $500,000. Over half a million, with only four sales, it appears to be several years’ worth of inventory on the market. This is a similar situation to homes across the Twin Cities however in many other communities in the north metro, the price cut off is much lower. Sales slow and inventory starts building at the $300,000 price point and above in many neighboring communities like Blaine and Lino Lakes. While homes have started to sell and inventory levels are much more manageable in lower price point categories, executive, lakeshore and other high valued homes have lots of competition.
Overall Shoreview’s real estate market is solid with homes are taking about 5 months to sell on average during the first 6 months of 2011. Single family homes are selling about 30 days faster than area townhomes/condos on average. Hopefully this continued momentum will continue through the rest of 2011.
