A Vancouver realty company managing the sale of surplus miners' homes in Manitouwadge reports the houses will likely sell for less than $40,000 each. By the time the area's Golden Giant gold mine closes in 2005, the realty firm plans to have bought and resold about 200 houses and apartment units currently occupied by miners.
A spokesperson for the company says the homes will likely sell for between $35,000 and $39,000, a price range that could attract Americans looking for seasonal getaways for hunting and fishing.
