Live Work Lofts on Pinterest

Pinterest is a social networking site that allows users to visually share, curate, and discover new interests by posting, (known as ‘pinning,), images or videos to their own or others’ pinboards (i.e. a collection of ‘pins,’ usually with a common theme). Users can either upload images from their computer or pin things they find on the web using the Pinterest “bookmarklet”, pin it button, or just a url.

Anyone can browse through the items other users have pinned and ‘like,” “repin” or “comment” on them. As with most other social networks, members are encouraged to interact with the content by reposting it, sharing others’ pins on Facebook and Twitter or via email, and even embedding individual pins on their website or blog.

Pinterest uses a visual emphasis and is very focused on the concept of a person’s lifestyle, enabling users to share interests and preferences with others while discovering like-minded people. “Pinterest uses the social networking platform for collecting, sharing and commenting on photos of personal passions and is uniquely engaging, absorbing and addictive”, says Lydia Dishman, writer for FastCompany.

To quote Pinterest, this is a social network meant to “connect everyone in the world through the ‘things’ they find interesting.”

The Real Estate Market in Desireable Aldea Community in Santa Fe

Santa Fe New Mexico residential real estate is showing signs of renewal, just in time for spring, full of hope and optimism about new growth. There is a reduction in real estate inventory at this time, compared to typical listings every spring. The absorption rate shows a shorter number of months for all inventory to be absorbed based on a current rate of sales. With lower inventory, the same rate of sales will take care of that inventory in less time. A higher rate of sales is yet to be seen, but there is at least improvement of the number of sales per month in this new year. January is usually a slower sales month.

There are many opinions on why the inventory of sales listing is low. Many sellers have perhaps given up trying to sell in the last few years and have decided not to sell at this time. Some homeowners are choosing to do minor remodels and wait out the real estate market trends, until their home value grows again. Many owners have chosen to lease their properties to tenants.

The real estate market usually has increases in inventory in the first 6 months of the year and most likely it will again in 2012. What is unknown, is how much inventory might come back on the market and whether buyers will decide to start buying while interest rates are at their lowest. With sales still somewhat consistently sluggish, it is unknown whether the real estate market in Santa Fe will turn around.

In Aldea de Santa Fe, however, the home sales are moving at a swifter pace. Recently a home sold for $505,000, which is encouraging in this very desirable neighborhood. One block away, a home has recently listed at $539,000, or $269. price per square foot for a 3 bedroom residential home.

Real Estate 2012 Buying & Selling in Santa Fe

So the New Year has gotten off to a busy start; the holiday decorations have been put away, bookkeeping for the previous year is almost complete & the plans for blogging have slipped by all too fast!

The good news is that the economy is improving, really. The long-awaited housing recovery is just beginning to blossom. There was a 5% increase in home sales in December & an annual 1.7% increase in 2011, according to the National Association of Realtors, which indicates consumers are gaining confidence nationally.

Here are some local Santa Fe statistics:

The total home sales volume increase 12% from $38.1 million in Nov 2010 to $42.8 million in Nov 2011.
The median price of homes in the city and Santa Fe County jumped 8% from $338,094 in Nov 2010 to $365,000 in Nov 2011.
The median price of condo and townhome sales jumped 29% from $229, 000 in Nov 2010 to $290,000 in Nov 2011.
The median price of land sales moved up 27% from $90,000 in Nov 2010 to $127,000 in Nov 2011.

So how do you interpret this? Real estate buyers for the Santa Fe area are more confident in the 2011 Santa Fe real estate market than in 2010. This is good news for all of us in Santa Fe. The supply and demand is back and a normal market is taking shape.

According to CNN Money, here are the Home Price stats for Santa Fe, New Mexico: Santa Fe, NM Metropolitan Statistical Area

Forecast change: second quarter, 2011 through second quarter, 2012 +1.6%
Forecast change: second quarter, 2012 through second quarter, 2013 +13.8%

“Mortgages are cheap. If you’re buying a house, condo, (or live/work Loft) or apartment to live in and pay for over time, and can afford the payments, then it’s a terrific time to buy.”

In 2012, it is likely that banks will slowly begin to open those dusty wallets. That means that homes have never been more affordable. Buyers who have been on the fence about purchasing might look at 2012 as the right time to buy.

If you are curious about Live/Work living, now is the time to tour the Aldea Lofts in Santa Fe. Live/Work Loft living means never having to commute to work, at the same time having separate space to work with an easy walk down to the commercial plaza level from a penthouse living area above.

Living in Santa Fe has so many more benefits: quality of lifestyle, the variety of cultures, the sophistication of the community and the ever-changing views. Life in Aldea, just 8 minutes form the Santa Fe downtown plaza, is an amazing mixed use new urbanist community that offers a quality of life you won’t find anywhere else. You can come join us and help create a vibrant community by buying the most affordable live work loft located on the Aldea Plaza.

Thinking of Selling Or Buying? Winter Time Has The Best Results!

It’s officially winter and the holiday season has come & gone. Now what?

For those who have been pondering the idea of selling or buying, winter – believe it or not – is actually the best time to sell & buy a house, condo, or Live/Work Loft. This is very contrary to what popular opinion holds, but online real estate brokerage Redfin dug into the data of home sales from November of 2009 to November of 2010 with stats to show why.

They analyzed sales over the four seasons and compared the number of listings, median days to sale, the percentage sold within a year of being listed, and the median sale to original list price ratio. In all four areas, winter sales outperformed all the other seasons, with the exception of days on the market, where spring sales were the speediest.
•   Homes listed in winter sell faster: 46 days in winter vs. 55 days in summer
•   Homes listed in winter are more likely to sell: 59.2% sell in winter vs. 53.1% sell in summer
•   Homes listed in winter sell closest to their original price: a 2.7% drop from the final price in winter vs. a 5.2% drop from the final price in summer, worth more than $7,000 on a $300,000 home

The Santa Fe area followed the trends of the rest of the country. There was less competition in the winter as the least amount of listings were added. Compared with the median, there was 21.6% less number of listings in the winter. Santa Fe winter sales saw the most percent sold and also got closest to their original list price. Spring sales happened a bit quicker than winter, but not by much.

It’s time to buy in Aldea de Santa Fe! Mortgage rates are at its lowest in years.

Loft #17 is priced aggressively below the building construction cost, at an asking price that includes the land for free! $595,000. Call now for a tour. 505.603.9300
