The Home Tour

Welcome to the part of the MSPHomeTour.com website where you’ll be able to choose which homes to visit, and especially to choose where to start. You can pick up the Guide, a newspaper, at the first home you visit, so you have a tangible copy of what you will view here.

Under the “Homes” button you’ll see photos of homeowners in their homes, with the projects or features that they’re most eager to share with you. This reflects the Minneapolis & Saint Paul Home Tour’s focus on putting real people in touch with other real people who’ve embraced and lived through the remodeling or building process, whether they had professional assistance or did it themselves.

The list, titled “Home Tour Preview,” can be organized electronically by community or by the type of project featured. In each home listing, you may also find links to the contractors, architects or other vendors who were responsible for the project. When you decide to use one of those companies, please let them know that you saw them on the Minneapolis & Saint Paul Home Tour or MSPHomeTour.com.

One last feature to explain: “Maps.” This takes you from the list, to one of the internet mapping websites. It does take some time to establish and use the connection so you may want to not use this if you are on dial-up. Another good reason to browse here and then get your Guide at the first home you visit, a public library, or other locations listed in “The Guide” section of this website.
