Have you been to Northern Minnesota?  Our lakes and Lakeshore is fantastic. The State of Minnesota has over 10,000 lakes and is an excellent place to visit and spend your vacation time. When it comes to Real Estate, North-Central Minnesota is an exciting area withhundreds of Lakes, State forests, state parks and numerous outdoor activities through out the year!  We have Skiing, Hunting, Fishing, Boating, along with business and Adventure!  Our Real Estate market is far enough away from the turbulent areas of the South, East and West, so that our High's aren't as High, and our Low's aren't as Low.  We have been blessed with moderate fluctuations.  This does not mean we haven't seen our share of Foreclosures and short sales... We have them too! If you have ever dreamed of owning Lakeshore... 07/10/2009

I recently attended a class put on by the Bemidji Chamber of commerce on keeping above others in this slow and challenging market.  The class was called "Survive or Thrive".  It was a "Dale Carnegie Trainer" class put on by Rick Cole. The class was "How to position your business for success".  This was marketed to Realtors and other business owners in the Bemidji area.  The class was pretty interesting.  It basically boiled down to how you look and the current situation, react to how things are going and actually get out and tackle your own daily activities.  We certainly have sellers in the area that want to sell their home and we also have buyers who want to buy.  Our job is to find these people, help them find the right home and bring it to closing.  I know it is tougher to do it but... 01/31/2009
