There’s a reason only 5% of sellers sell without an agent. The ones who tried it on their own say this is where things went sideways: getting the price right, knowing how to prep, and selling on time. And these aren’t small details. They’re what determines how much you walk away with. Skip the guesswork. Let’s connect.

Right now, local markets are moving in very different directions. And your strategy as a buyer or seller should reflect your market.

Want to know which way our local market is leaning and what that means for your move? Let's connect.

Remember a few years back when sellers held all the power and buyers were stuck offering way over asking or waiving inspections just to get a chance at the house? In many markets, those days are behind us.

The home that’s been sitting on the market for a few weeks? Maybe even a month? Don’t scroll past it just yet.

Your first instinct might be to assume there’s something wrong, but you could be missing out. Especially if finding a house in your budget has been your #1 challenge.

Homes that have been on the market longest are the ones you should be looking at first.

Because the longer a house sits, the more open the seller usually is to dropping the price or negotiating.

So, before you write off a listing that’s been around for a while, let’s connect. I can help you decide which homes are worth a second glance.

A lot of buyers are waiting because they think prices will fall, but that’s not what the experts are saying.

If you're trying to decide whether waiting still makes sense, let's connect. That way you understand what's happening in our local market and what it could mean for your plans.

One of the biggest reasons buyers are still sitting on the sidelines is because they think home prices are going to come down.

Juneteenth always makes me reflect — on how far we've come, and how far we still have to go.

To me, home has always meant more than walls and a roof. It's belonging. It's family. It's why I love what I do at Maki Group Realty.

Happy Juneteenth, from my home to yours. 🎇

Save this and share it with someone who'd appreciate it.

Father’s Day is this weekend and if you haven’t figured out plans yet…here are my favorite things to do with dad in Santa Fe👇

🏌️ For the golf dad:
Marty Sanchez Links de Santa Fe — because watching dad almost make that shot is half the fun (and the views are pretty unbeatable too)

🍖 For the food and cold beer dad:
Rowley Farmhouse Ales or Santa Fe Brewing Company — great food, cold local brews, and the kind of laid-back vibe he’ll love

🌄 For the outdoorsy dad:
Aspen Vista Trail or Dale Ball Trails — fresh mountain air, scenic hikes, and time together doing what he actually enjoys

🎵 For the dad who just wants a good time:
Boxcar Santa Fe or The Bridge at Santa Fe Brewing — live music, games on, and a fun atmosphere without overthinking it

🍽️ For the “let’s make it a nice dinner” moment:
Geronimo — the kind of place he wouldn’t pick himself but absolutely appreciates when you do

Happy Father’s Day to all the dads in Santa Fe 🙌

Putting off buying a home? Maybe you're waiting for a crash to get a better deal – or afraid you'll buy now and watch your home's value fall later.

Either way, the widespread drop you're bracing for may not be coming.

Yes, a few markets are seeing mild declines. But more than 100 economists and housing experts expect home prices will actually rise nationally over the next five years – not fall.

And waiting for a deal that never comes could mean passing up the chance to gain thousands in equity or paying more in a few years for the same home.

So before you decide to wait, let's talk about your options and what prices are really doing in our area.

Could waiting until later this year work out? Sure. But it's important to understand what you may gain by moving now too – that way you have the full picture before you decide.

If a 2026 move is on your radar, let’s connect and talk about what matters most to you. Depending on your priorities, Summer could be your moment.

A lot of people who want to move are telling themselves the same thing: "Maybe I'll just wait until later this year once things calm down."
