Taos, NM Real Estate

Recent press has put forth the problem of shrinking tourism in Taos, as well as the suffering of the artists and galleries in recent years.  It is easy to place blame on the events of September 11, 2001, and there has definitely been a profound effect.  However, what needs to be understood is the nature of competition for today's ...

For a little earthship history and how Santa Fe is going green, this "Whatever Happened to Earthships?" article is a quite interesting.  It seems that there is a new development going into Santa Fe that won't have earthships per se, but it is a big step in the right direction for sustainable architecture and ...

Granted, an article in The Aspen Times might not be the place to look for objective commentary about the good and bad of the growth in Aspen.  But this comparison of Aspen and Taos was fun to read.

Though I do quarterly real estate statistics here in this blog, and I do an extensive annual report for download on the website, it's really nice to be able to get a feel for the market at any given time.  We REALTORS® have what's called a Hotsheet Report in our MLS software.  I have been trying to do a blog post on its ...

  I really appreciate all my readers, site visitors and past clients.  That's especially true because they probably had to do a little work to locate me and my website.  I don't:Meet and greet for businessJoin organizations just to get real estate businessHand out business cards - well maybe about ten in a yearBut, ...

This was a great chance to show my logo and foresight in choosing it.  The article "How Artists Influence Real Estate Prices" at the NuWire Investor site speaks to the economic benefits to an area from having a community of artists. Unfortunately, it mentions Santa Fe and Taos as two places where the rising real estate ...

Sorry, been busy, but I'll try to get more regular at this.  In the last seven days, there has been a net drop of nine listings.  45 new ones came on, while 54 sold or expired.  57 had price changes.  Though I didn't look, most or all should have been decreases. There are currently 901 residential listings, three more ...
