I am not an expert on everything but I am an expert on a few things. Minnesota real estate is one of those things and so is how to grow tomatoes.
There is more but as a woman, I have to take care not to sound like a “know it all”.
When people need advice on these topics they will sometimes crowd-source answers to questions from their Facebook friends or will go to other social media sites and just ask.
Often most if not all of the answers they get are wrong. Some are partially correct based on one person’s limited experience.
I have been playing around with AI. When I try to use it to write a blog post or answer a question I get these kinds of cliche-like statements that are not really true but they have some truth in them. Real estate is local in that the laws governing it are made at the state, county, and city levels.
Just because many people hold a belief that doesn’t make it true. There are common misconceptions about how to buy a house and how to sell one that I see everywhere. As we all know just because there is an article about something on the internet doesn’t make it accurate or true.
Please if you have a real estate question ask a professional. Someone like me a Minnesota licensed real estate broker with more than 20 years of experience serving the needs of residential real estate clients. I can answer all sorts of questions and when I can not I know how to find the correct answer.
When people crowd-source answers to their real estate questions they may also be sharing information that should be confidential with people they do not know. Real estate agents often search for social media accounts and use them to get information that can help in negotiations.
