Well, more information has arisen over the last while about the proposed redevelopment of Saint Paul waterfront where the old Ford assembly plant stood for many years. As I mentioned in my last article concerning this site, this is an unprecedented opportunity for the upgrading and development of a prime piece of Saint Paul real estate and there are many looking forward to this project with great interest. Recently a Colliers market study of this site was conducted and some interesting points were brought forth about the positive aspects that this site brings to the table. These strengths speak highly of the potential of the projects and the positive impact that it could well have on the city and it's visual aspect and economic future.

Collier's had some good points regarding the old Ford site, the least of which is the stunning views of the river from atop the bluff. Taking a look at what is in store, there will be some of the finest views in the entire city from this area. Also, as this is an established neighborhood with a long and storied history there is a real neighborhood identity that has arisen over the years. An identity that will likely stay intact with the revitalization of the ford site and carry the area forth into a new era of prosperity. The strong character of this area will play an integral part in the success of the new development as it will help to provide stability and direction during the actual construction phase. It is looking as if the homes in this development are going to be extremely hot properties once complete. as this site is located in the heart of the city it looks to be a vital and exciting area.

The Collier's study also showed real evidence of a strong market for single family homes, not only in the Highland Park area but the potential for a strong market on the proposed site as well. The plans are calling for homes at all price levels and the area is perfect for apartment, condo and even senior's living developments. All in all there is huge potential in the Ford site that the city of Saint Paul is taking the time to plan properly for. The plan has outlined specific districts for residential and commercial development and a strong mix of these will form the nexus of what could prove to be the most exciting and influential development in Saint Paul's history.

We all know that it's a very difficult time to sell a home right now. The market is filled with inventory and prospects are scarce. Competition is fierce and expectations from buyers are unforgiving. It's perfectly understandable to be feeling a little beaten up and discouraged by this market, but there's one person who shouldn't be showing signs of giving up - your Realtor.
I don't consider myself to be a social marketing guru (yet), but I do spend a little time each week on all of the top social media sites that I know about. Sometimes, it's just a few minutes per week. Obviously, I spend the majority of my online time right here on ActiveRain, but I have become more active on Twitter lately - both are highly addictive, in my humble opinion. Facebook also seems to have some interesting potential as a business tool, if used properly.
When I first started in real estate, I used to spend crazy amounts of money on print advertising. We tried it all, and then some! Newspapers, local magazines, national magazines, mailouts, and more. I felt like much of what I did in that initial year or two provided a quick education on which marketing truly works.
One of the more frequent battles that I encounter as a real estate broker is the fact that many members of the general public think that we are only licensed to sell resale homes, or that builders don't work with agents at all. It may surprise you to realize that a significant percentage of our sales are brand-new homes (at least 30-40 per cent these days).
For many of us in the real estate industry, this past year has been a difficult one, with stagnating housing markets and economic ups and downs. You've likely had to overcome many challenges this year, and are feeling grateful for having either survived or thrived in an otherwise gloomy climate. If you're like me, you're not only thankful for your success, but you're now wondering how you can help those in need in your community.
Every weekend, buyers head to a slew of open houses, but rarely do they ever make an offer on the properties they see at these events. To enhance the success of the open houses you host, you need to make your properties more memorable in the minds of visitors. To do this, you need to get creative and spice up your open houses.
Atlanta real estate has a reputation that stretches a significant way round the world for having one of the most successful and predictable housing markets anywhere. Whilst much of the world is currently experiencing financial woes, and seeing housing markets slump quite rapidly, in Atlanta people continue to buy new properties, to build new homes and to make money from investing in the many forms of real estate that exist in this city.
