Where we work
Albuquerque
Bernalillo County
From the North Valley's 1950s adobes to new build in Volcano Cliffs, with an appraisal story for each.
Market notes
Rio Rancho
Sandoval County
New build volume, builder incentives, and USDA eligibility that runs through the middle of neighborhoods.
Market notes
Santa Fe
Santa Fe County
Higher price points, more jumbo files, and appraisals on genuinely one-of-a-kind adobes.
Market notes
Los Lunas and Valencia County
Valencia County
The strongest USDA territory in the metro, plus small acreage that needs the right lender.
Market notes
Corrales and Bernalillo
Sandoval County
Acreage, horse property and irrigation rights, where portfolio lending earns its place.
Market notes
East Mountains
Bernalillo and Santa Fe counties
Tijeras, Edgewood and Cedar Crest: wells, shared roads and propane, all of it underwritable.

Yes. Santa Fe pushes more files above the conforming limit, so most of that work goes to the jumbo investors on our panel where reserves and appraisal strategy decide the outcome.
Several state housing agency programs, a municipal program inside Albuquerque city limits, and a lender-funded grant available in designated census tracts through two of our panel lenders. Details are on the down payment assistance page.
Yes, and there is no sales pitch at the end. Bring a notebook. They run on Saturday mornings in English and Spanish, about two hours.
