"Can I just go see this house right now?"

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,

Albuquerque MLS real estate search

Here is a great place to find homes in the "High Desert" area of Albuquerque, New Mexico - NE Heights and foothills area search The foothills of Albuquerque are very popular for their hiking trails, biking trails and the great views of the Sandia Mountains. A 'high desert' terrain offers very low maintenance landscaping with low water usage plants. If you like desert living, this is a great place to start.
