		<description><![CDATA[At least the Minneapolis duplex market is consistent.
Somewhat.
The trend of dramatically fewer new duplex listings continued for the week ending November 12, 2011, with just 17 new duplex opportunities appearing on the Minneapolis  market compared to last year&#8217;s 40.
For the math whizzes in the audience, that&#8217;s a decline of 57.5 percent.
Of these new listings, 8, [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[In the last several weeks, I&#8217;ve had several buyers and sellers ask me to give up all or part of my previously agreed upon commission on a duplex sale so they can either pay less or net more.
My answer was &#8220;no&#8221;.
Yes, real estate commissions are negotiable.
And I realize every get rich quick real estate seminar or web site [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Buying a duplex can be a lot like having your senior photos taken in high school.
Selecting the right outfit and photographer is a bit like getting pre-qualified for a loan and selecting a Realtor.
And if you decide you want to see every duplex on the market,  it&#8217;s kind of like digging through all the proofs [...]]]></description>

For the week ending June 19, 645 single family home purchase agreements were signed. That&#8217;s down 44.2 percent from the same week one year ago.
New listings kept eating fruits and vegetables too; down 8.4 percent.

		<description><![CDATA[Thank God that shipment of newly listed single family homes and duplexes hit the market just in time for the expiration of the first time and repeat buyer tax credits.
I&#8217;m being sarcastic, of course.

As a result, most of us are cutting back on &#8220;extras&#8221;.  For some, that means opting to stay home and watch cable rather than going out.  To others, that may mean choosing to make a peanut buttersandwich  rather than bologna.
Unfortunately, for some tenants, that also means going without renter&#8217;s insurance.
First, if you&#8217;re [...]]]></description>

You know the ones.
They typically featured a cartoon of a little pink sea-monkey family, with their castle in the background.
There was also an image meant to resemble my family enjoying staring at my sea monkeys swimming around in a fish bowl. Of course, [...]]]></description>
