Rent Your Property During the Republican National Convention

Rent Your Property During the Republican National Convention

Do you or a client own property near the Xcel Energy Center in St. Paul? GOP Convention Strategies has contacted us seeking assistance placing their clients near Xcel Energy Center during the 2008 Republican National Convention (RNC) event.

You have probably heard the hype and read the newspaper articles about the potential to realize income by renting your property during the RNC. It turns out that, in this case, some of that hype may be true.

Some clients of GOP Convention Strategies coming into town for the RNC have expressed interest in staying in private homes or condos—specifically in downtown St. Paul, the Cathedral Hill area and downtown Minneapolis—for the week of the RNC, which runs from August 30 to September 5, 2008.

Hotels are already booked in Minneapolis and St. Paul (and people don’t necessarily want to stay at the Maple Grove Holiday Inn). If you own a place in St. Paul or downtown Minneapolis that you’d like to rent out during the week to a private company (meaning, these people come with deposits, contracts, etc.), contact Leslie Wilcox of GOP Convention Strategies at 651.714.2008 or Leslie@GOPConventionStrategies.com.

Renting out a condo/apartment/house during the RNC is not going to make the owner rich for life, but it could make enough for a really sweet vacation!

	Foreclosure Rates Stay Steady, but Serious Delinquencies Decline(0) We have not seen the bottom of this foreclosure market yet. This is especially true in the winter season and an uncertain political climate. While there is a bright note that the FHA has once again waived the Anti-Flipping rule to allow people to rehab homes and sell them quickly there are other gloomy stats. CoreLogic’s [...]

	Low Ball Offers on Foreclosures-Revisited(0) I wrote a post about how to write a low ball offer on bank owned foreclosure properties in September 2010. You can review that low ball REO post here. I think that all of my original thoughts remain. Surprisingly though, I get many questions about this process. One example is that there are 74 comments [...]

	A Terrible Bedfellow(0) I have had two different customers call me in the last 6 months saying that their tenants have found bedbugs in their units. Unfortunately, both of these calls were from customers that owned 4-plexes. It turns out that bedbugs have become an increasing problem in the last couple years. More international travel and the bedbugs [...]

	Great Posts by Other Agents(0) I was reading posts on several of the other agents blogs over the weekend. I found some excellent posts that I wanted to share with anyone that reads this blog. Steve Howe posted a little insider information on his Minnesota First Time Home Buyers blog about how the typical Minnesota MLS search that you find on [...]

	Coming to a REO Near You(3) As we all know, in certain areas, vandalism of vacant houses is almost expected. When I am touring some neighborhoods, I am almost surprised when the copper water lines have NOT been stolen. I saw a house in North Minneapolis a couple years ago that had something that looked like steel plates over the windows. [...]
