“Is this a good time to buy or sell?”

“Can I find a home if I sell mine now?”

“What can I do about mortgage rates?”

PLAIN TALK ABOUT THE CURRENT STATE OF SANTA FE REAL ESTATE 411 Tano 5 bed/9 bath private estate, only minutes from Santa Fe but surrounded by glorious vistas and scenery. Incredible separate artist studio, wine room, guest quarters. $9,800,000

It’s a complicated market right now, no doubt about it. And I hear questions like these frequently.

The truth is, believe it or not, even with challenging market forces, there are still good opportunities and many ways to successfully buy or sell a property now.

Just since the start of 2022, I’ve helped hundreds of people with these same questions reach their Santa Fe real estate goals, buying and selling properties. 216 transactions so far to be exact, and over $315 million in sales – even in this ever-changing local market.

How do I do this? I provide you with guidance on how to optimally price your property, and strategies to buy a property that help you obtain the best deal possible. I sell your home more quickly using creative solutions and proven marketing strategies. I can also assist you in procuring the best loan rate possible.

Please don’t feel paralyzed by uncertainty or questions about today’s market. The first step is to get the information you need to make informed decisions. I’m here to help answer your questions and share insights on the current market. Call or text me for a no-pressure conversation so you’ll have a better sense of your options. I’ll bet you’ll be surprised to learn that it’s a better time than you think to buy or sell successfully in Santa Fe!
