Galisteo – The Neighborhoods of Santa Fe, New Mexico

A visit to Northern New Mexico and Santa Fe would not be complete without a Sunday drive to the charming and historic 305 year old village of Galisteo.  Just 18 scenic miles from Santa Fe and 49 miles from Albuquerque, you will see why artists, urban captains of industry, celebrity designers and movie producers choose Galisteo as their home.   July offers the annual rodeo and is a combination of spectacular scenery, cowboy culture and living history. The Galisteo Studio Tour is held every October.   The fall colors of the giant cottonwoods are a stunning sight along the river.

Michael’s Bit of Real Estate

The answer to the question I’m asked daily from the owner’s of the fine homes I represent regarding the current state of the Santa Fe real estate market is as follows.  It’s not a bad market, it’s a different market.  It’s a price war and a beauty contest.  When the market changes, I change.  What do you do?
