How Much Should Excelsior, MN Buyers Offer in October 2026?

By Leah Hodgins

Excelsior, MN

The latest market report covers single-family homes, condos, townhouses and apartments in Excelsior. The typical sale price was $850,000 for completed sales in that report. Homes sold for an average of 98% of their asking prices. Those townwide figures describe completed transactions, not the appropriate offer for any particular home.

I would not apply that average percentage of asking price that homes sold for automatically to a home's asking price. Your offer needs a review of recent sales of similar homes, alongside the property's condition and features. Keep what the home supports separate from what you can comfortably afford.

Choose relevant recent sales with me, then review differences in size, condition and features before discussing a reasonable offer range. Confirm your estimated payment and money needed at closing with your lender, then write down the maximum price you are comfortable offering. Review financing and inspection requirements before deciding which conditions belong in your offer.
