Will there be a burst of last minute home purchases ahead of today's tax credit expiration?

We'll find out.

Just to give procrastinators one last opportunity, I'll be at my listing at 4121 W. 28th St. (28th & Inglewood) in St. Louis Park's Fern Hill neighborhood from 4 - 6 p.m. today.

Highlights -- besides the value, location, and curb appeal -- include a beautiful, wood-paneled Family Room; four Bedrooms up; formal Living and Dining Rooms; and a ton of charm and character throughout.

Oh, yes: and an attached, 3-car garage with tons of extra storage space, plus a Gazebo in back.

P.S.: For more on whether today's deadline is a big deal or not, see "It's a mad dash for home tax credits," in today's Pioneer Press. Reporter Chris Snowbeck surveys several local agents -- including yours truly -- about whether the tax credits are going to expire with a bang or a whimper.
