One of our jobs at HennepinCounty-HouseValues.com is to develop a complete understanding of home market inventory in your area. Any Minnesota realtor worth their salt should be able to give you a list of competing properties in your market, and explain why some have sold ahead of yours.
“Inventory” is a fancy word for properties on the market. If you have a sought-after property that is reasonably priced and shows well, then realtors will be much more likely to show it to potential buyers ahead of others on the market.
