Letter from the Founder

Thank you for visiting Minneapolis Urban Homes.

This website was born out of a combination of events and circumstances. The events included the rebirth and revitalization of the urban home movement in Minneapolis. In the last 15 years, the changes have been nothing short of phenomenal. Many things have fueled this trend, including the benefits of living in a location that is close to both business and leisure activities. Also, the appeal of having a home without the maintenance required with a single family home is very attractive. Urban dwellers can spend more time doing the things they enjoy and less time fighting traffic and cutting the grass!

The circumstances included the nature of shopping for a condo/loft/townhome as opposed to a single family home. Since these are all forms of multiple unit living, they bring special issues and challenges for both Buyers and Sellers compared to single family homes. Our goal was to create a website with deep, useful content plus features and functions that would really add value compared to the more generalized real estate websites. Our intent was to make it easier for buyers to streamline the buying process - and to offer some unique marketing innovations to help sellers get the best price in the shortest time.

We believe that the trend toward a new generation of urban homes will continue and actually offer more benefits over time. We hope that you enjoy the website and that you will find it to be useful. Please contact me directly at 612-749-6503 if I can be of assistance.
