'Adam Leistico can relate. He's not trying to sell a house, he wants to buy one.

He and his wife looked at more than 40 houses, but they fell in love with a little blue rambler in St. Paul.

"We felt something we hadn't felt in the other places," Leistico said. "Both of us were grinning throughout the entire walkthrough and we finally just decided: This is the one. We're going to wait and see what happens with this place." '
