Lino Lakes, MN Real Estate Market Statistics First Quarter 2010

Looking for a good deal on lakeshore or acreage in the Twin Cities area north metro? Lino Lakes, MN in Anoka County might be just the ticket. Just north of the Minneapolis and St. Paul, Lino Lakes is an eclectic area of real estate with acreage, lake homes, townhomes, single family starter homes and country estates. First quarter sales have been very good in the lower price points with bank owned and lender mediated properties impacting the sales. Homes in higher price points and those offered by traditional sellers had longer market times but some properties were selling.

It conveniently located near the junction of the 35E and 35W split, just north of the Twin Cities, Lino Lakes is a 33 square miles treasure. With 13 lakes and acres of beautiful protected wetland, the community is served by three school districts;
Centennial District #12, Forest Lake District #831, and White Bear Lake District #624. The gem attraction is the pristine 2,700-acre Rice Creek Chain of Lakes Regional Park Reserve is situated within the heart of the city. Lino Lakes is committed to maintain this treasure and its natural settings and wildlife habitats for years to come.
