So, in light of wanting to do something light - here is a great clip with some amazing homes on the market - enjoy! <br>G Have any interesting Albuquerque homes to share?

So you have come to Albuquerque and just want to see a few houses? Ever wondered what it takes to get in to see a ‘few houses’ ?   Seems easy enough, sellers have their house on the market, it should be accessible at a moments’ notice to qualified buyers, right? Here’s a typical scenario: House A, House B, House C, House D, House E House A is shown by “lockbox call first” LBCF…buyer’s broker calls number and leaves a message that they will be showing the house at 2:00 pm (that’s what LBCF means, leave a message and then show)… House B is shown by “appointment with listing broker, appointment with seller”.   AWL, AWO   Buyer’s broker calls listing broker and leaves a message “we would like to show the house at 2:45 after our 2:00 showing at the first property.   Please confirm”     House C is shown “vacant lockbox”, VLB – this should be easy enough, that means it’s vacant and show anytime.   But the private remarks to the brok...

Forbes rates 3 New Mexico cities ‘best small places for business’ | Greater Albuquerque Association of REALTORS A great article about Business in New Mexico!

This blog today is directed towards my fellow Realtors® and to their and future clients.... I've been getting alot of calls lately, that go like this "Hi, I'm [mumble] with [mumble] Realty, and I'm calling on that house you have on {fill in the blank}....Is it vacant?  What's the story?  Are the owners usually home?" Stop, look and listen!  I had a sneaky feeling a few times that these weren't really brokers, they were someone wanting something other than good things for that house and my clients.  What confirmed my feeling is when I would just simply tell them - "well, thanks so much for wanting to get more info, everything you need to know is in the MLS..."  The long pause that followed was the giveaway.  A few times the response was easily proven to be that of a legitimate broker with legitimate questions....the others were quite obviously not. Yes, there are people out there who want bad things for your properties.  In our Albuquerq...

One of the most complicated elements of real estate is when you have to sell a house that it is an estate, or when your loved ones are moving on to a retirement home.  You are left with not only a home to sell, but you are also left with items left behind, repairs to do, and the unknowns in how to sell a home you have never lived in. I have a great team of experts that can assist you throughout the process. For the personal items left in the home, I have some great resources to offer.  I have participated in auction sales of personal items, antique appraisals and smaller estate sales of personal items.  My team of experts can help you no matter how large or small the project is. Some precious items have been left to friends and relatives?  I have a great mini-move service expert that can handle the smallest table to the largest piano and ship it anywhere in the country.  If you need a climate controlled storage facility to store items until they fi...

If you are an Albuquerque real estate professional, anywhere, you have received this call.  "Hi, I want to see this house right now." If you are a home buyer , or just a curious window shopper, you have probably made this call. Here is why that call is just not the best way to go about shopping for a home. 1 .   Have you talked to a lender about getting financing? I know, you don't think 'it's a problem', you know your financial situation like the back of your hand and you know you can get the money.  In fact, you might have it all in cash, stashed away just waiting for the right house.  But, if you can't provide your real estate professional that information, you may not get into the house!  Many sellers today are requiring that their homes not be shown to anyone who can't substantiate that they have talked to a lender or provided enough information to establish themselves as real home buyers.  This is a rather strange world we live in now,...

Here's a great article on how you should choose carefully the websites that you use to find homes for sale on-line. I hear this every day, people using Realtor.com, Trulia, and other sites that may not have updated MLS feed. On a site like mine, however, the provider that I use to gather the MLS data is updated at least once a day, so anything that sells is removed from the list, and new listings are shown immediately. When you register for a saved search, you can get immediate updates of any changes in the Albuquerque real estate market. REALTOR® Magazine-Daily News-Too Many Errors Found in Listing Information?

I've been asked by one of my clients to show one of your properties.  You find out about the showing by either your client telling you, or you see it on the Supra update.  That tool is a great resource for letting us track our showings and keeping us informed even when we have a vacant listing, isn't it?  I remember when the lockboxes weren't as 'smart' and we had to run around every week to 'read' the keybox to see who had been there.  With today's technology we can easily see who has shown our properties, time/date.  Great for security and great for servicing our clients . The next thing that I expect to find after the showing is a request for feedback .  While I don't mind getting a phone call, sometimes it's not as effective as getting a detailed email request for feedback - the reason being I might be standing in line at the grocery store, waiting in my dentist's office, or with a client.  Not very efficient for letting you know det...

This blog post goes out to all of my broker friends in Albuquerque , trying hard to sell their listings...after all if you aren't trying hard to sell your listings, then why stay in the business, right? Let me just say this officially - I DO NOT mind getting your property flyers emailed to me . I know you have heard a million times "I can find what I want on the MLS ! **%(#()@! Don't bother me!" I disagree. Sometimes, I just can't. Why? Because the MLS is a great tool for telling me the basics... address, area, size, bedrooms and whether it has a pool . Oh, and yes it tells me how much your brokerage is offering to me to close the property with you with a qualified buyer. The MLS, however, is lacking in being able to spell out alot of really nice information that might fit my buyer just perfectly, based on me putting in a somewhat broad search in the MLS and taking alot of time to read all of your remarks (as space allows) Many years ago our brokerage...

Using FaceTime ... Really an interesting tool! How do you use it? - Posted using BlogPress from my iPhone Location: Silver Peak Pl NE,Albuquerque,United States

That's the question I asked myself as I was moving towards getting an iPhone. Okay, so I have the iPad already, but didn't see the need for a new phone..moving closer to Apple products and still hanging on to my PC...can it be done? Does it make sense? I'm here to tell yes...it's possible and does it work for business? Yes, it does. I think I may have the perfect combination of work tools for my real estate business now. My toolbox is now packed with amazing hammers and drills to make your home sale or purchase easier and faster with less stress on you.
