After many months of diminished sales activity, those of us “in the trenches” are experiencing a definite up tick in sales activities. Within Sotheby’s the number of showings has consistently risen in each of the past few months which is now resulting in increased pending contracts. Consider that year to date, there have been 19 sales of homes over $1,000,000 and as of today, there are 12 homes that have recently gone under contract for over $1,000,000!

We are also experiencing increased interest and sales in Zocalo, an award wining condominium community designed by Ricardo Legoretta. There are tremendous values available in this unique spot 5 minutes from Santa Fe’s historic center. Modernist in design, these homes range from 1100 square feet, 2 bedroom/2 bath starting at $250,000 up to 2500 square feet, 3 bedroom/3.5 baths at $650,000. Homes feature lots of natural light with high ceilings, concrete, tile, and stone floors, tile and granite counters, travertine baths……..In addition the community features a terrific community center with lap pool, hot tub, fitness center, and walking trails!
