This weeks open house
I am hosting two open houses this week. The first open house is at 1129 ST. GERMAIN ST E, St. Cloud. This home was recently remodeled and features a new kitchen with new cabinets, new counter tops, new tile flooring, new light fixtures, and more. The best feature is the original hardwood floors were preserved while the rest of the main level was updated. Fundamentally, this home features 3 main floor bedrooms, 2 bath rooms, and a 3 car garage. Other features include a spacious yard, deck, and convenient location. This home is already licensed as a rental property, or can be enjoyed as a single family home. A great value at $148,900. This home is open for viewing Saturday, July 7 from 11:00am - 12:00pm.


The second open house is located at
7959 Center ST, Clear Lake. This newer patio home features 2 bedrooms and 1 bath. In my opinion, the best feature is that all snow removal, lawn care, and exterior maintenance is done for you! Other features include an open kitchen with tons of cabinets, large living room, spacious walk-in closet, and a concrete patio for summertime grilling. Special financing is available for this home, but this offer expires July 31, 2007 so you must act fast. The seller priced this home to sell at $148,900. This home is open for viewing Saturday, July 7 from 12:30pm to 2:00pm

For more information, or to schedule a viewing outside of the open time, please call me at (320)240-6153 or e-mail me at troythechguy@gmail.com
