Real Estate in Santa Fe

Mention Santa Fe and people smile and tell you what a wonderful place it is. But often it is assumed that it's desirability comes with a price. I'm here to tell you that a full range of prices are available for property here. It simply is a matter of choosing your neighborhood.

Living within close proximity to the Plaza will add value and hence, a higher price, for a piece of property within its vicinity. This is due to the historic quality of the neighborhoods and also the convenience of enjoying all the activities during the busy summer months that happen in the Plaza. If you work or plan on working in this area searching here will reveal some very interesting properties. Areas that fall within this category are South Capitol, East Side, North Capitol and the historic Guadalupe Neighborhood..

Santa Fe was a stop on the historic Santa Fe Railway line. Recently, a relatively modern development has occurred near the historic rail station called The Rail Yard. The development of this area correlates to the opening of the Rail Runner train system that goes south to Albuquerque, with stops along the way. Developed as an alternative to driving to Albuquerque and it's international airport, this commuter train is still developing. However, once completed, properties that lie along the route of the train will gain in value. This includes properties that lie west of the train tracks including the new commercial and residential properties making up The Rail Yard.

Further south of the Capitol, you'll find established developments of single family homes, townhouses, condominiums and apartments. Prices reflect "starter homes" for first time buyers to homes suited for full time residents of Santa Fe who may not feel it is necessary to live downtown. There is a resurgence in some of these neighborhoods, due to the tax incentives given by the government for first time buyers, offering opportunities for investors.

Areas outside of Santa Fe offer anything from exclusive, gated communities, "off grid" properties, ranches and stunning land, ready to build your dream home.
