It’s no secret that the real estate market across the country is in a precarious position, and the “Land of Enchantment” is no exception. With a shortage of sellers, new home construction outpacing population growth, and rising mortgage interest rates, this is a difficult time to buy a home. We’ve been in the business for a combined 160+ years and have never seen anything like this.

Here’s the good news: the real estate market in Angel Fire is still strong in a post-pandemic world. Our up-close insights into the market are informed by our agents who cover the Moreno Valley, Taos and Red River.

Let’s Talk New Development

With the current reality of the market, we see a unique opportunity for luxury condominiums to shine. One example is Northern New Mexico’s premier luxury condominium complex: The Grande at Angel Fire Condominiums. With amenities galore, floor plans to fit your needs, and final interior design decisions left up to you, The Grande might be the high end condo option you’ve been hoping for.

If you’ve ever experienced Angel Fire, you know how much this mountain town has to offer. The warm people and cool weather barely scratch the surface. Centrally located amidst the Enchanted Circle Scenic Byway, Angel Fire is an ideal home base. Here you’ll find one of the top-rated mountain bike parks in the Southwest, a PGA-rated golf course, as well as tennis and pickleball courts. If you like to fish, there is an abundance of fishing in private lakes, at Eagle Nest Lake State Park, Monte Verde Lake, in the Red River or in the Cimarron River, which stays stocked with trout. In the wintertime, Angel Fire Resort offers family-friendly skiing, ski lessons, snowboarding, sledding and tubing. We know that you could experience some of these outdoor activities elsewhere, but could you do it for the same price? In 2019, Realtor.com dubbed Angel Fire the “Last Affordable Ski Town in America,” and for good reason.

Angel Fire already provides impressive value for your money, especially when compared to affluent ski towns like Breckenridge, Winter Park, Vail and Aspen. We love Colorado just as much as the next person, but owning a condo or house in a popular Colorado ski destination is not financially feasible for the majority of families in this economy. From our point of view, New Mexico makes the most sense.

We understand that the seller’s market as it stands can be stressful. If you are hoping to buy in the near future, here are some steps you can take now to prepare.

Obtain a pre-qualification letter from your preferred lender.

Get in contact with an experienced agent so that when an opportunity arises, you can move quickly.

Keep an eye on listings. You never know what could pop up on the market tomorrow!

While it is true that we are at the mercy of the market to an extent, your choices now can set you up for success in the real estate realm.

The Time to Sell Is Now

If you've got a home or condo in the Moreno Valley, or anywhere in northern New Mexico, now is the time to put it on the market. The strong real estate market here means we can sell it as quickly as we can list it, and get you top dollar for your property. Values have never been higher for homeowners and the closings we’re experiencing are unprecedented.

It is always important to get guidance from a real estate professional who knows the market and has the experience to help you achieve a successful sale. If you’ve been thinking about listing your home or condo, now is definitely the time. So what are you waiting for?

I would be remiss if I didn’t use this opportunity to thank everyone who came together to battle the Hermit’s Peak and Calf Canyon Fire. As a lieutenant for the Angel Fire Fire Department, the coordinated effort and resources provided to battle this wildfire was extraordinary and I speak on behalf of everyone in Angel Fire and northern New Mexico when I say a heartfelt thank you to all the firefighters, emergency personnel and everyone who helped support them.

Have a great rest of your summer in Angel Fire! We’ll see you up here!
