Buy Minnesota Real Estate and How do I Sell Minnesota Real Estate ?

As the Minnesota Real Estate boom continued through the early 2000's, money became more and more available to less and less qualified buyers. No meaningful oversite was given to the appraisal process, and home values were artificially inflated by increased demand from newly qualifed first time home buyers, second home and vacation home buyers, and investors. New risky loan policies were given the green light by a Congress that wanted to increase home ownership to historic levels. Housing was talked about as a right by some legislators, touted as a way to reduce crime by others, and ignored by the rest. With an unsubstainable increase in prices for Minnesota Real Estate during the first six years of the 2000's, tied with the collaspe of subprime mortgages and low teaser rates in the spring of 2007, the real estate market imploded on itself.



The result is either a disaster or huge opportunity for buyers and sellers of Minnesota Real Estate! I know this seems impossible that both buyers and sellers could have an opportunity, but let me explain.



If you are a seller of Minnesota Real Estate then you are going to take a beating when you sell your home. Luckily, most sellers are upsizing or moving sideways. If you are upsizing and buying more expensive Minnesota Real Estate then you will be in great shape. If you are selling a 200,000 dollar Minnesota home, you have lost 25-35% of its value. This means you have lost $50,000 to $70,000 in this example. If you are moving up to Minnesota Real Estate worth $400,000, they have lost the same 25%-35% in value, which means you are buying for $100,000 to $140,000 less, therefore you've made $50,000 to $70,000. They are upsizing to $800,000 so they will recoup their loss and make up to $140,000 once they buy a bigger home, etc.



If you are moving sideways, the money you lose on your sale will be saved on your Minnesota Real Estate purchase. The 25%-35% that you lost on your sale will be made up when you buy your next home that is selling for 25%-35% less.



If you are buying your first home, then you have won the lottery in Minnesota Real Estate and may not know it. You will be buying at a 25% to 35% discount with rates that are the lowest in history. You also have had the federal government giving you $8,000 dollars as a buyer who has not owned a home in three years or $6500 if you are buying and have owned your home for five of the last eight years.



Now, if you are downsizing or selling and not buying new real estate somewhere, you are not going to be very happy. You'll still be receiving any appreciation that occured in the 70's, 80's and 90's, so that may still mean you are ok. If you bought after 2001, you may owe more than your home is worth. If you bought and put 20% or more down, you may have lost a good chunk of that. I am more than willing to do a free market analysis for anyone in Minnesota. I enjoy doing it, plus it gives me a great chance to meet future clients.



Feel free to use the free home valuation tool above. It is a free tool for Minnesota buyers and Minnesota Real Estate sellers.

No Minnesota Blog or Minnesota Real Estate Information would be complete without Minnesota Short Sale Real Estate information so I have included that below.

Minnesota Foreclosure and Minnesota Short Sale

The Niece Team 612-305-8487



Minnesota Real Estate and Minnesota Home prices have continued to flow up and down in most of Minnesota and Minnesota is no difference. Minnesota homes and Minnesota Real Estate continue to be sought after as of now. Homes in Minnesota under 200,000 are seeing full price offers and in many cases multiple offers. Buyers of Minnesota Real Estate need to be fully pre-approved, as well as working with a top Minnesota Realtor.

Short Sales and foreclosures are not as common in Minnesota as other surrounding cities but the ability for buyers to buy so much home for so little money in surrounding cities has put a strong downward pressure on Minnesota Real Estate and Minnesota Homes. Foreclosures and bank mediated properties account for upto 30% of the real estate market at any one time.

Experts believe that Minnesota Homes and Minnesota Real Estate may still see a collapse in the higher end markets if we do not start to see some movement but opinions vary as to when and how bad this collapse might be. This type of home does not account for a high percentage of the Homes and Real Estate in Minnesota so it should not hurt as bad as other cities.

This is one bright spot for owners of Minnesota Real Estate . The consensus is that if you are selling a home in Minnesota or any Minnesota Real Estate that you need to be exact in your pricing, marketing and value. Find a Realtor with experience, a successful track record and one that works nights, weekends, days, etc. This is the time for agents to show how committed they are to the Minnesota homeowner and to Real Estate in general.
