Better start saving now if you plan on moving into one of these homes in the near future, or - -ever!

For the bargain price of a mere $4.5 million you could own this fixer-upper in Dakota Dunes. This amazing home sits on a 1 acre lot, has 5 bedrooms, (including a master suite with a fireplace and sitting room) features 18-foot ceilings, Italian marble floors, an elevator, a gameroom, a wet bar, an eight-seat theater, a separate golf cart garage, saltwater swimming pool and (geez, I'm just tired of listing stuff)- -more! This is the most expensive home in South Dakota.

What does just under $8.5 million buy you in Minnesota? A lot! This 12,502 square foot European-style home in Wayzata, (a suburb of Minneapolis-St. Paul) is set on 2.7 acres of wooded area on the Lake Minnetonka shoreline and features 5 bedrooms and 7 bathrooms! (God help me, someday, I'd just like to take a shower in an upstairs bathroom, not in an old metal shower stall that empties into the floor drain in an unfinished basement!) Take a peek at this home here.

And in Iowa? Just $3.5 million buys you this home with 7,934 square foot main house, 5 bedroom, 5-and-a-half bath home with gourmet kitchen, (I have what would have been a gourmet kitchen- -in 1912!) pool, spa, two four-car garages, one three-car garage, and a few other amenities in Marion, Iowa, (which is a suburb of Cedar Rapids).
