Mama always said never to play with your data. Or was it food? I think it was data.
Well it's officially time to stop listening to mom.
As an add-on to our Q4-2008 Update to our foreclosure and short sales report, we're proud to announce the release of a brand-new interactive data tool that gives you the chance to sort and rank neighborhoods and cities within the Minneapolis/Saint Paul region! You can then dig-in to specific areas even further to understand with a high-level of detail how lender-mediated properties are affecting the market.
Click here to start playing! Here's a look at the monster:
See those blue links at the top that say "Sort?" You can click on any of them to re-sort the area list by a new figure. See which areas have the highest concentration of lender-mediated properties. See which ones saw the biggest increases in median sales price in 2008 for traditional, non-lender-mediated homes.
See those blue links that are area names? You can click on any of them to get a detailed two-page report for that area. See how traditional, non-lender-mediated homes faired in the last year. See if lender-mediated supply is growing or falling in your neighborhood, and by how much.
Here's a look at a page from the Minneapolis—Powderhorn report:
Dig in, play around, and tell us what you think! Do you want to see more of this kind of interactivity?
Tell us in the comments, or by dropping a line to jeffa@mplsrealtor.com.
OK... This is awesome. Good to see that you are keeping busy over there! Thank you!

GREAT report! Thanks for all of your efforts. As expected, North Minneapolis, Brooklyn Center, Brooklyn Park and many St Paul neighborhoods head the list of largest share of foreclosures/distressed properties. And, I guess it's no surprise that Shakopee is working its way up. But, I was pleasantly surprised to see that we still have many strong suburban resales with the majority of inventory as 'traditional sales' in their communities, as well as areas like Mpls/Calhoun, Mpls/Central, downtown St Paul, St Paul/Mac Groveland - River Rd, and St. Paul/Crocus Hill.

Good stuff, thanks for not keeping information to be 'under lock and key'. This data should be widely used by both consumers and agents alike.

Amazing write-up! This could aid plenty of people find out more about this particular issue. Are you keen to integrate video clips coupled with these? It would absolutely help out. Your conclusion was spot on and thanks to you; I probably won’t have to describe everything to my pals. I can simply direct them here!
