I just looked on the edina realty website, which has a really handy and easy to use map/search page, there are some down your way that are in my price range, but they're not exactly what I'm looking for, so they got filtered out. I guess you could say that you get much less house for your money when you get into that area, which is understandable when you consider the better neighborhood. Right now I'm looking for something less than $135,000 (yes, I'm cheap

), 2 car garage, at least 3 bedrooms and preferably 2 baths. And yes, they're out there, the ones that I have been putting offers on have all those things and aren't in bad neighborhoods. It is just a matter of finding them and getting an offer in as soon as possible as they come on the market.
edit:
I found
this one during my search last night. Seems like an awesome deal (3 car garage, 5 acres, 2200 ft3, 4 BR, 2 BA, $103,000 etc.), until you notice the 2 words to the left of the picture, in the short description.
