What to know

The community is about ten minutes from St. Paul, and twenty minutes from Minneapolis. Maplewood has a current population of around 40,000 residents, and is geographically known for hosting the headquarters of 3M, an extremely successful, international company. Another landmark, although known more locally than nationally, is the Maplewood Mall. With great employment, entertainment, and recreational options, Maplewood offers its residents a wonderful, suburban environment.

The city has a geographical area of nearly 18 square-miles, of which only one-square mile is water. U.S. Highway 61, Minnesota Highway 36, and Interstate Highways 35E, 94, 694, and 494 are six of the main routes in the city. These major roads connect Maplewood to the majority of the Twin Cities metro area, making many of the amenities and landmarks of Minnesota easily accessible.

A simple plan for your Maplewood move

I’ve been helping people sell and buy homes across Minnesota, Wisconsin, and Florida for about two decades, and I build and remodel luxury homes too. I’ll help you see both what a property is and what it could be.

1Get clear on the numbersFor sellers, a realistic value for your specific home. For buyers, what your budget actually buys in the neighborhoods you like.
2Walk it with a builder’s eyeWe spot what an inspector is likely to flag before it becomes a negotiation.
3Prepare or positionSellers get a prep list and a staging plan. Buyers get a short list of homes that truly fit.
4Move with confidenceOffers, inspections and closing, with one steady guide keeping it calm and on schedule.

Getting the house ready, or making it yours

If you’re selling and want repairs handled before buyers see them, Super Crew Contractors can give you an estimate. If you’re ready for something custom, Ivy Lane Homes does luxury home building and remodeling. And a quick coverage check with Intrinsic Insurance before closing can save you a surprise. Ready to talk? Start a buyer plan or ask what your home is worth.
