Links from the past week that was:

  • Home builders gain confidence, but I bet that gets shattered once the housing tax credit expires.

  • FHA cash reserves may drop below minimum requirements set forth by congress. What this means for Minneapolis condo buyers is stricter requirements via Washington Post

Cost Of Commuting

Here is a great tool to figure out the cost of commuting. Maybe you live in the ‘burbs’ and are thinking about moving back to Minneapolis. This calculator will show you just how much you can save and open your eyes to just how much coin is disappearing out of those pockets.

Spending to much on the cost of your commute to work? If your moving, looking for a new job, thinking about the tele-commuting job or just want to know how much you are spending on your commute given the prices of gas, you might just want to know how much it actually is.
And it probably costs more than you think!

The Beginning Of Something New

Hey thanks for stopping by.

Working on something new here so I apologize if it seems bare. I will be building the most comprehensive and consumer centric site for Minneapolis condominium and loft living around.

At least I hope so… stay tuned!
