Summer is a Great Time to Buy or Sell a Home in Santa Fe!

Friday, June 26th, 2009

Summer is a wonderful time in Santa Fe. The weather is a delightful mix of hot intense sun intermixed with cool breezes and rain from afternoon thunder clouds. At night our high mountain air ensures we keep sweaters handy while watching dramatic sunsets.

This invigorating climate, dramatic landscape, and historic architecture have drawn people to spend summers here for years. Before air conditioning, Santa Fe was a haven for many families escaping the hot and humid climates of Texas and Oklahoma. Many of these families eventually bought homes in Santa Fe as it became such an integral part of their family traditions.

Traditionally, summer and fall is our strongest real estate season. Many schedule their trips to blend buying property with one of our fantastic summer events such as The Santa Fe Opera, the Santa Fe Folk Art Market, The Santa Fe Chamber Music Fesitval, The Hispanic Market, the Santa Fe Fiesta, and Zozobra. Whether you are considering land with big views, a historic adobe home, or luxury estate property, summer is a terrific time to be here!

P.S. Please let me know if you would like a copy of our State of the Market Report. We will be sending out an updated version soon after the quarter ends on the 30th! Just e-mail me to let me know!

Sotheby’s Continues To Be A Leader!

Thursday, June 4th, 2009

It is such a pleasure to be associated with our fine company! Although not the largest company by number of agents in Santa Fe, we do have the most productive agents in town. A recent review of what companies are selling the most in many of our popular areas shows that we continue to hold market share. Here is a listing of our market share in these communities / neighborhoods based on our current listings year to date:

  • Las Campanas – 44.85%
  • Monte Sereno – 74%
  • Zocalo – 75%
  • Estancia Primera – 60%
  • Eastside/Historic Eastside – 55.38%
  • La Tierra / La TierraNueva – 60%
  • Quail Run – 61.90%
  • Santa Fe Summit – 59.62%

On a broader note, we are experiencing a pick up in activity with both showings as well as pending contracts. This is positive as it reflects the seasonal rhythm we have always enjoyed of the market picking up in the late spring through the fall. Santa Fe remains a strong draw for both full time and vacation ownership and now is the best time to buy we have had in years!
