What I’m watching in Minneapolis right now.
25 years of market reads, live data from the MLS, and honest opinions on where the Twin Cities is heading. No hype. No guesswork.
Current Market Signals
What the Twin Cities data is actually saying right now.
Inventory Is Still Tight
We're not back to 2020-era craziness, but good homes in good neighborhoods still move fast. If you're a buyer and you see it, don't sleep on it.
Rates Have Stabilized
The fence-sitters who waited for 3% rates are going to wait forever. Buyers who locked in the last 6 months are already building equity while others debate.
Minneapolis Values Holding
We didn't spike like Phoenix or Austin. Which means we also didn't crash. Twin Cities real estate is boring in the best possible way — it just quietly goes up.
North Loop Rental Demand
Downtown adjacent with serious walkability and amenities. Rental occupancy is high. If you're thinking investment property, this area checks the boxes.
Luxury Segment Moving
The $1M+ market is more active than people expect. Buyers in this range are decisive. Sellers who price correctly aren't sitting long.
Days on Market Varies
Priced right = gone fast. Overpriced = sits. This is the most predictable part of the market and also the most ignored advice. Price it based on data, not hope.
MLS & County Data
Live feeds from the actual MLS and Hennepin/Ramsey county records. Not aggregated estimates — the real transactions.
Neighborhood Breakdown
Block-level data because "Minneapolis" is too broad. What's happening in Kingfield is not what's happening in Kenwood.
Price Trend Tracking
Rolling 12-month price movement with seasonal context. I don't just read the number — I explain what's driving it.
Days on Market
The most honest signal in real estate. DOM tells you who has the leverage before you write a single offer.
Comparable Sales
Recent closed sales in the exact area, adjusted for condition and features. This is how I price — not guesswork, not Zillow.
Off-Market Signals
Pre-market activity, expired listings, estate sales. The deals that don't show up on public search yet.

What This Means for You
Seller's Market Continues
Low inventory and high demand are still driving competitive conditions. If you're selling, you're in the driver's seat.
Price Growth Moderating
Prices are rising, but the frenzy is cooling. It's less "Wild West" and more "Strategic Growth".
Speed Kills (In a Good Way)
Well-priced homes are flying. Overpriced ones are sitting. The market punishes greed but rewards precision.
Stop Guessing.
Start Knowing.
The market moves fast, and online estimates can't see your new kitchen or the way the light hits your living room. Get a real, human analysis of your home's value—backed by data, not algorithms.
Where I’d be looking right now.
Not algorithm output. My actual read on three neighborhoods worth your attention.
Northeast Minneapolis
Still outperforming the metro.
Northeast keeps surprising people. Inventory is tight, days on market are low, and buyers are still offering over ask on anything priced right. The coffee shop to condo pipeline is real here.
Bryn Mawr
Undervalued and quiet. Not for long.
One of the most underpriced pockets relative to what you get — lakeside access, walkability, solid schools. It hasn't caught up to its neighbors yet. I'm watching it closely for buyers who want value before the market figures it out.
Linden Hills
The market corrected. The neighborhood didn't.
Prices pulled back a bit from the 2022 peak — which is actually healthy. Quality-of-life here hasn't changed at all. Families who buy Linden Hills tend to stay. I tell buyers: this is a 10-year hold, not a flip.
