Who Would You Recommend to Family and Friends?
The vast majority of home buyers and sellers turn to the Realtor they used previously or one who was referred by someone they know. It’s understandable because we all want to work with someone we can trust, especially when it involves the largest transaction many of us will ever make. In this month’s Item of Value (call me for it at 505.470.4180 if you’re not in my Client Appreciation Program), I’ve included an explanation of how my decision to work by referral benefits you. It allows me to devote my time and energy to meeting the needs of my clients. There are a number of ways that I can be a valuable resource, such as providing market updates and referring other reputable business professionals when you need them. I will make a constant effort to provide you with excellent service, because in my business, the most profound assets I possess are your respect and trust. Your referrals are a priceless gift, and I want you to know that they will never go unappreciated.

Montezuma Street – The Neighborhoods of Santa Fe, New Mexico
All it takes for a little inspiration to compose my weekly blog on the neighborhoods of Santa Fe is to take a walk around the block. The district is heaving with Friday afternoon traffic as I make my way to Montezuma Street, the hub of the Rail Yard District. Just a ½ block from my office I can stroll through Border’s Books, The Cowgirl Hall of Fame Restaurant (excellent Bar-B-Q and live music), Pranzo Italian Grill, Café Dominic, Zia Diner, and Kohnami Sushi. The Jean Cocteau Theatre is now home to the New Mexico Film and Museum Office. The Sambusco Center is home to 24 shops including Bohdi Bazaar, Teca Tu, Santa Fe Pens and the best shoe store in the world, On Your Feet.

Michael’s Minute of Real Estate
If you’re not looking to “flip” a house but looking for value and a home in which to live, this market offers the highest opportunity for you and your family. Inflation is coming. One doesn’t live with the price, one lives with the payment. With these historically low interest rates I must say again, “Buy now and thank me later.”
