What shapes a project in Saint Paul
Local conditions worth knowing before scope and budget are set.
Housing mix
Metropolitan Council estimates count about 57,500 detached single-family homes in Saint Paul, about 14,700 units in duplexes, triplexes and fourplexes, and about 60,500 units in buildings with five or more units.
Heritage Preservation areas
In a Heritage Preservation area, the Department of Safety and Inspections requires a permit for exterior work such as tuckpointing, siding, window replacement or roof patching, whatever the cost. Accessory buildings there also need Heritage Preservation Commission approval.
Truth-in-Sale of Housing
Single-family homes, duplexes, condos and townhomes need a TISH evaluation before they are marketed for sale. The report is for disclosure, and the only mandatory repair in a single-family home is a working hard-wired smoke alarm.
