It’s Not a House, It’s THE House

If you type “house” into a search engine, the first thing that appears won’t be Buy Sell Lease Real Estate’s website (http://www.buysellleasemn.com), but the television show. Granted, his stinging character is refreshing—although mine, Travis Senenfelder, is a bit more tolerable—and the mystery is always intriguing. However, if you’re simply trying to look for real estate in Minnesota, this could be a bit frustrating not seeing house listings, like those on BSL’s website, http://www.buysellleasemn.com/buy. Considering everything else you have to worry about: paperwork, finances, location, and the little girl that is suddenly pulling on your pant leg.

But, are you worrying about a house? Everyone has their focus set on getting the house—signing, paying, calling, negotiating. With more holes to jump through being added seemingly every day, new buyers are wide-eyed and scared. Old buyers, who might not even be that old, have begun to say, “Well, back in my day…” More people are trying to get a house, and less people seem to be looking for the house. They simply pull up Buy Sell Lease’s website and find something they can afford. (Check out my blog on BSL’s website about the tough times: http://www.buysellleasemn.com/staying-positive-in-tough-times/)

So, build your house. Mentally, of course. Choose a location: Minnetonka, Eden Prairie, Cottagewood, Greenwood. Be as specific or general as you like. Dig out a basement and finish it—or, for the goal-oriented, leave it unfinished. Add the floors and walls and carpet as needed. Roof it. Add in the necessaries, add in the fun things. Then, adjust for price. Add that sun room that you couldn’t decide on. Maybe you don’t need three coy ponds.

Write it on a piece of paper. Draw it. Keep it in your mind. Then, show it to your wife (or husband, girlfriend, boyfriend, best friend, boss, or potential roommate). Or lock it away for your eyes only. Nevertheless, the final, and most important, step is to give me, Travis Senenfelder of Buy Sell Lease Real Estate at 651-216-9466, a call. You can also email me at travis@buysellleasemn.com. Now, you don’t need to bring me your masterpiece and make me feel worse about my art skills, but bring me your idea. We can find your house.

Helpfully,

Travis Senenfelder
