Living in Minneapolis: Top 5 Golf Course Communities
About this video
Want to live on a golf course in the Twin Cities? Some of these communities you literally can't buy your way into — no matter how much money you have.
In this video, I'm ranking the top 5 golf course communities in the Twin Cities metro: TPC Twin Cities (Blaine), Edinburgh USA (Brooklyn Park), Bearpath (Eden Prairie), Interlachen (Edina), and Hazeltine (Chaska). I break down what it actually costs to live in each one — home prices, initiation fees, monthly dues, HOA, and the hidden buy-in requirements most buyers never hear about until it's too late.
