Who handles the paperwork in Proctor
Proctor is in St. Louis County. Deeds are recorded by the county Recorder, which keeps a searchable index the public can use. Boundary Avenue is the line between Duluth and Proctor, and parts of Duluth sit on the east and south sides.
What is different for a landlord here
Duluth's rental license applies to rentals inside Duluth. If your building is near the border, check the county tax record to see which city it is in. The Duluth rules we cover, such as the license requirement, only matter if the building is on the Duluth side. We did not verify what Proctor asks of a rental owner, so ask city hall. Minnesota law applies to both sides.
The buildings and the tenants
Proctor is a railroad town and many buildings are older, with a long run of small repairs behind them. We look at rentals with tenants in place, and we explain which sales we used and why.
What we would ask you
Send us the street address, which side of Boundary Avenue it is on if you are not sure, who lives there, and what the lease says. A rough idea is fine for a first talk. We are based in Duluth, MN, and have no office in Proctor, so we start by phone. We are the buyer you deal with, we own rental property around here ourselves, and the person who calls you back decides the number. It comes in writing with the math explained, and you choose the closing date.
