Right now about 1/3 of the residential real estate that is for sale in St. Paul is in the downtown area. Condo units priced from 94,000 to 900K and everything in between. They are not selling as quickly as the homes in other neighborhoods are. Right now downtown is the land of opportunity.
I’ll go out on a limb and suggest that one day the pandemic will be under control and there will be sports, events, concerts, and plenty of indoor dining happening downtown. There will be Wild games and baseball and plays.
I live near downtown and still find it a great place to go for a walk. There are businesses open here and there but most of the offices are quiet due to more people working from home.
For people who have wanted to sell their larger home and live in a condo with no stairs and heated underground parking now is the perfect time to quickly sell the house for top dollar and buy a condo at a reasonable price.
There are parks downtown too and the Saint Paul Farmer’s market, light rail service, and the Union Depot too.
