I often get questions on where to find information on foreclosure properties in the Minneapolis/St. Paul area. Here are a few free resources that you can refer to:
Search Foreclosures and Short Sales currently for sale
Unfortunately the other counties have not become user-friendly enough to post their sheriff sales onlines… I really wish they would. I regularly reference Hennepin County’s data for myriad reasons and I’m sure I’m not the only one. It’s public data… make it public!
There are other resources for foreclosure information (foreclosures.com, etc. but I have found their data quality to be far less than desired).
