If you are facing the reality of a potential foreclosure on your home in Highland Park, St. Paul, MN, you’re probably considering the option of a short sale. It can be a very confusing process, and one that you shouldn’t attempt without experienced professionals helping you through it – both legal help and real estate help.

Well the first quarter numbers for Highland Park are out and they aren't great. Here's the "in a nutshell" results The Bad: - The median sale price in Highland Park in the first quarter was $205,590, down 11.5% from the 1st quarter of 2010. - The days on market in Highland Park was 161 days, up a whopping 43.6% from 1st quarter 2010. The Not So Bad: - There were 36 closed sales in Highland Park in the 1st quarter which equals the 1st quarter of 2010 - New listings in Highland Park are also up 4.6% The culprit appears to be more foreclosures and short sales entering the market. Of the 36 sales that took place in the 1st quarter, 9 were foreclosure or short sales. If we were to remove those 9 sales the average sale price of the remaining 27 properties was $284,451. A clear indication that...

330 Days on the Market then.......Home Staging in St. Paul MN sells it 5 Days later!! Yes, approximately 330 days on the market and then a home stager was brought in. What a transformation. This house is magnificant and because of that the owner thought the bones of the home alone would sell it.     As you can see it had very dated grey carpet and very cold grey paint. It did nothing for the architectural features of this 1928 house. The owner listened to the advise and pulled up the carpet, refinished the floors (STUNNING) and repainted the cold walls. As you can see this alone was a HUGE improvement.     The owner also listened to the home stager's advice and brought in fresh furnishings to replace the very tired limited furniture. This really created a "WOW" factor and showed the ho...
