Market is Looking Up

Wow, it’s the end of February already.  Time is flying and we’re really busy here at La Puerta.  Today there are 21 homes and 3 pieces of land that are under contract in Placitas and there are 6 homes and 3 pieces of land that have closed since January 1^st.  As usual, La Puerta is involved in almost all of the transactions.  Our brokers were responsible for 4 sides (either representing the buyer or seller) in the 6 homes sold, 5 sides in the 3 pieces of land sold, 10 sides of the 21 homes in pending and 1 side in the 3 pieces of land in pending.  That is significant considering we have only 12 agents in our office!  I brought the buyer who purchased one of the homes in February and I also brought the buyer for a home sale in Jemez Springs. Yesterday, I also got a Certificate of Achievement from the Greater ABQ Association of Realtors (GAAR) for achieving greater than $2 million in Sales in 2011.  Not bad for a slow market!  Spring has sprung.  The Junipers are giving us sneezing fits, but Life is Good in Placitas.
