Why the GOP should avoid gay issues in St. Paul
2008-09-01 01:30:00 Unlike most bloggers who write on gay issues, I don’t believe we should turn to the government to address many of our concerns. Yes, I believe we need to repeal Don’t Ask/Don’t Tell and to enact laws recognizing same-sex relationships, but beyond that, the state should leave us alone. We are already seeing the fruits of ...

Foreclosures in St. Paul
2008-03-19 03:47:00 After my post from yesterday that spreads encouragement about the St. Paul real estate market, let me throw a little cold water into the mix. Once again how one views the market depends on whose shoes you are wearing. My experience the last two weeks in showing houses in the $200,000 to $300,000 range has been an eye opener for my St. Paul buyers. The stereotype of foreclosed homes is that only homes in the lower price ranges are lost to foreclosure. In today's market, that is not the case. Of 25 homes we viewed in that price range, only 4 were occupied. Eighty-four percent of the homes we viewed were either foreclosed or the sellers had moved on without first selling their St. Paul area home. That is a high percentage. The other impression my buyers had was that they can get a much larger home in their price range than they could have 4 years ago. Since they are moving back from out of state, getting more home for the dollar ...
