Martin Road for sale?

Hi there! I think I know you ... don't worry, it has been like that ever since we moved back to Duluth.

I live on this same stretch of road. The noise has always been a factor here. I think a lot of people get a taste of the semi-rural life at the nice price, then move further out or back into town. Busy stretches of road always seem to have a lot of real estate up for sale.  

I read something on a county site that Martin Road is going to be rebuilt in the next few years, so that could be a factor as well.   

At least two houses recently for sale on that part of Martin Road are because the elderly owners died or decided to move into town. A third has been on the market for at least five years. I don't think there's any kind of mass exodus; the signs just really do stand out along that stretch of road.

"The Martin Road" if you are from Duluth.

Huh.  Off topic, but new feature in ios6

I grew up on Gothenburg, and we never called it "the martin road"

Yea, assessments for new construction could be a factor.

I would also venture a guess that a lot of the people who purchased these properties did it while prices were inflated and they had ARM's or other mortgage types that put them in a bind. 

lojasmo - you made reference to the new ios6. I just upgraded my iPad but haven't done my iPhone yet.

The cons of upgrading could be a whole 'nother post. Blahh.

I haven't seen any problems.  Works pretty slick on my 4s, and my ipad3.
