Episode Summary
In Episode 23, it’s just the home team — Adam Tafel and Tim Swierczek — walking through the current state of the Twin Cities real estate market. This spring update includes real numbers from March 2025, behind-the-scenes data from accepted offers, and an inside look at the investor deals we’re helping clients close right now.
We break down the most recent stats from Home Free TC and the Realtors Association, including seller contributions, inspection waivers, appraisal gaps, financing types, and more. Then, we go deeper into deals that are working and why, including a 4-plex, a 3-plex, a large 2-plex on contract for deed, and a Stillwater SFR with an ADU. We also talk housing supply trends and where Adam thinks the single-family rental market is headed. We close the show by discussing our Twin Cities Investor Meetups and why they’ve become so valuable to our network.
