Minnesota Relocation & Referral Promotion

Are you considering buying real estate in Minnesota? I work with an extensive group of REALTORS®, real estate agents, and relocation experts in Minnesota in a kind of referral network. Using this referral system ensures my clients receive first rate service, even when their real estate needs extend beyond my Multiple Listing coverage area. I have very tough standards and high criteria that must be met by any Minnesotan agent or broker wishing to receive a referral from me. And, being a real estate professional and member of the National Association of REALTORS®, I can identify the first-class from the mediocre. I’ll interview potential agents, investigate their current productivity and asses their past performance as a Buyer’s Agent.

Every move or relocation inherently comes with a myriad of concerns to cope with. Let me provide the valuable service of seeking out and initiating contact with a highly qualified Minnesotan real estate professional that’s eager to assist you.

Naturally, the first question that arises is, “How much is this valuable service going to cost me?” Now, here’s where a good deal get’s better;

$ When I Give a Referral, You Get Paid $

Just for allowing me to put you in touch with a skilled Minnesotan real estate professional, I’LL PAY YOU! It’s commonplace, when applicable, for real estate agents to share a portion of their Buyer’s Agent Commission with the referring agent. It’s a show of appreciation and is aptly known as a referral fee.

I’LL GIVE 50% OF THE REFERRAL FEE TO YOU!

And remember, as a home buyer it costs you absolutely nothing for top notch professional representation. All the real estate commissions are paid by the seller, who has already negotiated and entered into a contractual agreement with their Minnesotan Listing Agent prior to their house being listed on the market.

Prime importance: in order to get paid for your next move or Minnesota property purchase, all I ask that you CONTACT ME FIRST. That’s the only way I can seek out a qualified Minnesotan agent and arrange the introductions.

Minnesota Real Estate

Minnesota is a state in the Midwestern region of the United States. It is the 12th largest state in the U.S., and the 21st most populous, with over five million residents. Minnesota was carved out of the eastern half of the Minnesota Territory and admitted to the Union as the 32nd state in 1858. While the state's residents are primarily white and Northern European, substantial influxes of African, Asian, and Hispanic immigrants have joined the descendants of European immigrants and of the original Native American inhabitants.

Nearly 60% of Minnesota's residents live in the Twin Cities metropolitan area, the center of transportation, business, and industry, and home to an internationally known arts community. The remainder of the state, often referred to as Greater Minnesota, consists of western prairies now given over to intensive agriculture; eastern deciduous forests, also heavily farmed and settled; and the less-populated northern boreal forest. The state is known as the “Land of 10,000 Lakes,” and those lakes and the other waters for which the state is named, together with state and national forests and parks, offer residents and tourists a vigorous outdoor lifestyle.

The extremes of the climate contrast with the moderation of Minnesota’s people. The state is known for its moderate-to-progressive politics and social policies, its civic involvement, and high voter turnout. It ranks among the healthiest states by a number of measures, and has one of the most highly educated and literate populations.

Minnesota is the northernmost state except for Alaska; its Northwest Angle is the only part of the 48 contiguous states lying north of the 49th Parallel. Minnesota is in the U.S. region known as the Upper Midwest. The state shares a Lake Superior water border with Michigan and Wisconsin on the northeast; the remainder of the eastern border is with Wisconsin. Iowa is to the south, North Dakota and South Dakota are west, and the Canadian provinces of Ontario and Manitoba are north. With 87,014 square miles (225,365 km²), or approximately 2.25% of the United States, Minnesota is the 12th largest state, and is the second-largest of the Midwestern states.

Minnesota contains some of the oldest rocks on earth, granitic gneisses some 3.6 billion years old, or 80% as old as the planet. About 2.7 billion years ago, basaltic lava poured out of cracks in the floor of the primordial ocean; the remains of this volcanic rock formed the Canadian Shield in northeast Minnesota. Following a period of volcanism 1.1 billion years ago, Minnesota’s geological activity has been relatively quiet, with no volcanism, no mountain formation, and little earthquake activity. The roots of these volcanic mountains and the action of Precambrian seas formed the Iron Range of northern Minnesota. These seas began the flattening of Minnesota which continued with glaciation beginning 600,000 years ago. Massive glaciers at least one kilometer thick ravaged the landscape of Minnesota and created its current terrain. The last of four major glaciations, the Wisconsin glaciation, left Minnesota 12,000 years ago. The extent of these glaciers reached all of Minnesota except the far southeast and southwest. This untouched southeastern area is known as the Driftless Zone, and is characterized by rolling hills and streams that cut into the bedrock. The glaciers left their remains across the entire state as they retreated, with most areas having 50 feet (15 m) or more of glacial till. As the last glaciers retreated, gigantic Lake Agassiz formed in the northwest; the lake’s outflow carved the valley of the Minnesota River, and its bottom created the fertile lands of the Red. Minnesota is geologically quiet today; it experiences earthquakes infrequently, and most of them are minor. The strongest earthquake in the last century occurred near Morris in 1975, and rated between 4.6 and 4.8 in magnitude on the Richter scale.

The state's high point is Eagle Mountain at 2,301 ft (701 m), which is only 13 miles away from the low of 602 ft (183 m) at the shore of Lake Superior. These elevation differences, however, do not suggest the gently rolling hills and peneplain seen across the state.

Two continental divides meet in the northeastern part of Minnesota in rural Hibbing, forming a triple watershed. Precipitation can follow the Mississippi River south to the Gulf of Mexico; the St. Lawrence Seaway east to the Atlantic Ocean; or the Hudson Bay watershed to the Arctic Ocean.

The state's nickname, The Land of 10,000 Lakes, is not an exaggeration; there are 11,842 lakes over 10 acres in size. The Minnesota portion of Lake Superior is the largest (at 962,700 acres) and deepest (at 1,290 feet) body of water in the state. Minnesota has 6,564 natural rivers and streams that cumulatively flow for 69,000 miles. The Mississippi River begins its journey through Minnesota from its headwaters at Lake Itasca, crossing the Iowa border 680 miles downstream. It is joined by the Minnesota River at Fort Snelling, by the St. Croix River near Hastings, by the Chippewa River at Wabasha, and by many small streams in the southeast. The Red River, in the bed of glacial Lake Agassiz, drains the northwest part of the state northward toward Canada’s Hudson Bay.
