Our Office Has Moved

This may come as a surprise, but even Real Estate Offices move once in a while.  Our office had been at its previous location for the past 18 years, and it was time for a change.  We have moved to new office space one block away.

The new office space is a wonderful space and will be an ‘all-new’ build-out.  This building is easy to find and has plenty of parking–unlike our last office where parking was at a premium.  Since we won’t have a private street-level entrance, we will have a secure way of communicating with clients to open the door for after hours access. 

We are so happy to be settled into the new space, which happened at the end of last year.  OUr new address can be seen below, but mail sent to the old address will be forwarded for a while, anyway. 

If I were to write a description of the building, it would read something like this:

“Lovely top floor, 12-office / 1 kitchenette space with conference room and reception area.  Wonderful views of Edina.  Shared technology enabled conference room available within the building.  Plenty of off-street parking available.  Security entrance.”

Minneapolis Real Estat -or- Minneapolis Real Estate

South Minneapolis Real Estat, er, Real ESTATE Blog

What is South Minneapolis Real Estat Blog? Just yesterday, I discovered that I had mistyped the title of the page. My page was specializing in Real Estat, which is a subsection of Real Estate. I’m sure not many people would be searching for Real Estat, but I certainly was catering to those people very well.
Anyway, I changed the title to Real Estate, which should more accurately portray what this blog is about!

National Night Out Minneapolis

National Night Out is coming up on the first Tuesday in August. It is a great way to get together with neighbors! This year, the organization that heads up NNO (i didn’t even know there was one), is in the headlines with some controversy. Apparently the president of the charitable organization, National Association of Town Watch, is taking a salary that is 33% of the organizations budget.

I’m not sure why that should matter about where or when neighbors get together for a block party. Our block is quite active and we get together 4 or 5 times each year anyway. We would participate in NNO regardless of who is running the organization, or what the day is called.

This year, we’ll meet in the street, with tables and chairs and grills in tow. We’ll have a pot-luck and lots of activities for the kids, and some great conversation.
