Twin Cities housing nonprofit paid $5.41 million for Rochester town homes
The Twin Cities Housing Development Corp., under the name of Innsbruck, LLLP, purchased the aging 40-unit Innsbruck complex at 1530 50th St. NW on May 27,
Twin Cities Housing Development has built or renovated over 2,940 units of housing in the Twin Cities in the past 41 years. While the Twin Cities is its primary focus, it does consider any communities within two hours in its geographic range. It did acquire and upgrade a 48-townhome complex in Owatonna last year.
This is the nonprofit's first foray into Rochester.
"We love the Rochester market. There's just so much energy there," said Ken Isaacson, Twin Cities Housing's Development Manager.
Isaacson explained that the plan is to make improvements to Innsbruck, while keeping it as low-income affordable housing with the help of Low Income Housing Tax Credits and other means. Innsbruck is fully occupied.
"The site itself is in good shape, but it needs some TLC," he said.
Nath & Associates of Bloomington, Minn. sold the 43-year-old property. Nath, which also owns The Quarters in Rochester, had owned Innsbruck since 2015, when it paid $2.85 million to buy it.
Olmsted County estimated the total market value of the Innsbruck complex at $4.61 million for 2025-2026.

Mitsubishi Electric's ME Innovation Fund Invests in AI-assisted PLM Systems Startup 'Things'
TOKYO--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Mitsubishi Electric Corporation (TOKYO: 6503) announced today that its ME Innovation Fund has invested in Things, Inc., a Japan-based startup that develops and provides AI-assisted product lifecycle management (PLM) systems for manufacturing, specializing in comprehensive document management from product planning to development to disposal. This is the twelfth investment that the fund has made to date. Through this investment, Mitsubishi Electric aims to integrate its extensive manufacturing and control expertise with Things' generative AI technology to accelerate the development of digital transformation (DX) solutions that address various manufacturing challenges. In recent years, Japan's manufacturing industry has faced labor shortages, the aging of skilled technicians and other challenges that are inhibiting skills transfer. In response, DX initiatives such as the implementation of PLM and other digital systems have advanced rapidly, but have encountered issues regarding development time, cost, usability and scalability. Things introduced its 'PRISM' PLM system in May 2023 to leverage generative AI to improve the structure and usage of information in manufacturing. PRISM offers significant cost and scalability advantages for enhancing user interfaces and experiences, and for effectively implementing proofs of concept (PoCs) across a wide range of companies.

BJMINING Unleashes AI-Powered Energy Arbitrage to Revolutionize Bitcoin Mining Profitability
London, July 06, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — With Bitcoin currently trading at $107,000 — up 60% year-to-date—many U.S.-based mining operations are facing existential threats as single-coin production costs soar to $137,000. In stark contrast, BJMINING, the UK-based cloud mining giant founded in 2015, has reduced its breakeven threshold to $68,000 by leveraging AI-powered dynamic energy networks. Operating more than 60 mining farms globally—100% powered by renewable energy sources such as solar, wind, geothermal, and hydro—BJMINING now serves over 5 million users across 180+ countries and has emerged as a premier ESG-compliant target for institutional capital. The 2025 Hashrate War: Survival Through AI and Green Innovation (1) Crisis of Inverted Margins Electricity Pricing Power: Electricity accounts for 75% of mining operation costs. In regions where prices exceed $0.12/kWh, over 40% of small and medium-sized mining farms have shut down. Profit Compression: Despite a 47% increase in global hashrate since the 2024 halving, block rewards have dropped to 3.125 BTC—bringing marginal profits dangerously close to zero. Seasonal Opportunity: Historical data shows a 70% probability of Bitcoin price increases in July. A breakout above $116,000 could potentially triple cloud mining returns.

Want to invest but need ready access to cash? A TFSA might be your best bet — but there are rules
Looking for an investment vehicle flexible enough to get your hands on your money quickly? A tax-free savings account might just be the answer. But experts warn there are mistakes you need to avoid to steer clear of penalties. A common gaffe is accidentally over-contributing to your TFSA, says Jason Heath, managing director at Objective Financial Partners in Toronto. The TFSA annual limit for 2025 is $7,000. If you've never contributed to a TFSA before and turned 18 before 2009, you would have a maximum lifetime TFSA contribution of $102,000 as of Jan. 1, 2025. Over-contributions are subject to a one per cent penalty for every month the excess amount remains in your TFSA. The CRA tracks your TFSA contributions across institutions and updates your contribution limit in the first few months of every calendar year. While the CRA had some issues with their TFSA reporting this year, Heath says the agency's reporting is generally reliable. 'Be careful about taking withdrawals and then contributing in the same year, especially using the TFSA like a savings account,' says Heath. When you withdraw from your TFSA, you regain your contribution room — but not until the following January. For example, if you withdrew $1,000 from your TFSA in March 2025, that additional $1,000 in contribution room will not be applied to your TFSA until January 2026. You can also accidentally overcontribute when transferring a TFSA from one financial institution to another, specifically by liquidating the funds and then recontributing them yourself, says Aldo Lopez-Gil, a Toronto-based financial adviser with Edward Jones. While it's true that you can choose what you put in your TFSA — ETFs, GICs, stocks, bonds and cash — and withdraw it tax-free, there are exceptions. For instance, U.S. stocks that pay out dividends in your TFSA are typically subject to a 15 per cent non-resident withholding tax, points out Lopez-Gil. For investors who want to be strategic, Lopez-Gil says it's usually more favourable to hold a U.S. stock in an RRSP, where it won't be subject to the withholding tax. That said, Heath points out that the withholding tax alone isn't a reason to exclude U.S. stocks from your TFSA. The dividend yield for the S&P 500 is about 1.3 per cent, so a 15 per cent withholding tax amounts to a mere one-third of a per cent, he points out. ' Sometimes there's a small cost to a potential benefit.' One of the main advantages of a TFSA is that any interest, dividends and capital gains earned in your TFSA can grow tax-free. Sometimes TFSAs are marketed as savings accounts, offering promotional rates to customers, points out Lopez-Gil. 'Bank-branch advisers are limited to bank-branded mutual funds, GICs or savings accounts as TFSA investments. A frequent road tripper and financial planner points to credit card offers, loyalty programs and For this reason, people may miss out on investing the assets in the TFSAs in stocks, bonds and ETFs, which are investment vehicles that tend to have higher growth opportunity.' At the same time, be careful about investing in an 'overly speculative fashion,' says Heath. 'Obviously, you want to earn high returns, and a tax-free environment is good for that. But if you're taking risks and you lose money, that's not good either because you don't get that TFSA room back.' 'If you lose $10,000 in a TFSA, that $10,000 is gone forever.'
