I'd suggest you ask the local post office what the requirements are for that city to get the official answer.

In the various cities/burbs around Minneapolis, I see different locations for mailboxes. Some areas have one box on a post in front of the house near the street. Others have 4 boxes grouped together by the street, and I've also seen neighborhoods where each house has their own box mounted on the side of the house by the front door.

On some SFHs split into two units, I have seen two boxes, one marked 'A' and the other 'B' so that even though they share the same house number, the postal delivery service knows to separate the mail into two boxes: "123 Main St, Unit A", for example. (The post office can also tell you if the second box should be labeled "Unit 2", or "Suite 1/2", instead.)

No matter the location of the box, the expense to mount said box would be a negligible one-time cost.

I have used West Title many times and find their fees reasonable and service excellent, catering to the investment crowd. They've even got a $25 quick title check to find surprises before putting in an offer.

Hi @Bilal A. In case you are still taking suggestions, I use Tim Netzell and he's been able to handle everything I've thrown at him. Here is his website.

@Dominick Marschall If you're in the Twin Cities area you can check out these attorneys:

Tim Netzell

Brad Schaeppi 

This is one of the reasons that many investors consider getting their Realtor designation -- they get to keep the buyer's agent portion of the commission (or reduce the purchase price by a similar amount).

Whitney, give Tim Netzell a call. He's in the Twin Cities and very good.

Happy New Year, @Gino Barbaro and congrats on the score!

I've found Success Realty to be very easy to work with for a good price. Check out some of their price options, here.

Hi @Allen Lemay. Welcome to BP and the Twin Cities investing scene!

I also work a day job in IT (think BigBox stores) and invest in SFH, TownHomes, and am a passive in a number of MF unit syndication in the DFW area.

As for meeting up with others, be sure to head over to meetup-dot-com and search for the various meet-ups that get together in the Mpls/St. Paul area.

Best of luck!

I had good luck with the Window Replacement Co. Talk with the owner, Pete Hill.

They replaced all of the windows in my Apple Valley town home last June -- I'm very happy with the speed of the install and the professionalism of the crew (vacuumed up the areas after the job was completed).
