We live in Kilmer Pond neighborhood in St Louis Park. I am an artist and a Realtor, and we love our neighborhood- It is really a cool place to live, first ring suburb, we live on the edges of St Louis Park. Near Minnetonka, we have the ability to access just about everything - Parks, Lakes, Shopping. My home studio includes an outside area that is private and lush with Flowers, especially in the Spring and Summer. It is so nice having everyone over to see my newest art !

BACK ON THE MARKET ! It happens sometimes.

You won't believe it when it happens - The process included selling the home, marketing the home, getting the home all prepared for sale, city inspections, fixes required, freshen the home in every possible way, run ads both on line and emarketing to special lists of potential buyers : Then Darn - the buyer needed a place to live until their own home closed successfully. What ? cannot believe you said that ! You say the buyer needed a year lease ? and the negotiations go on and on until you have a lease, an inspection, a non contingent offer, closing one year from the date the deal was signed. Hmmmm.. what could go wrong there.

Buyer(s) needs changed, but the Seller(s) needs didn/t get met. A cancellation occured, earnest money lost, and start over with everything necessary to sell in this tough market.

Look at the freshest listing on the block, literally, at www.CityLakesHomes.com

Meanwhile, a good client has a daughter that needs a home, but cannot afford much at all, and is newly in a job. So, she needs a rent with an option to buy, except most sellers in that price category need the cash. Hmmmm. What to do there ?

Keep trying I guess.

How many online posts and ads does it take to get one buyer to meet you at the home you are offering, those thoughts on my mind, this season.
