Message from the Broker at Santa Fe One Realty

Fall is in full swing. Aspens and cottonwoods are now yellow. We enjoy the crisp air and temperate 60 degree days. Buyers are busy finding the year end deals in Santa Fe Real Estate.

Santa Fe tops list of healthiest U.S. Cities
Organic Style magazine choose Santa Fe as the healthiest place to live out of 125 cities in the United States.
Clean air and lack of pollution were some of the 5,500 aspects analyzed.

Congratulations to the City of Santa Fe on making a productive choice! City Hall and Las Campanas settled their water dispute before going to court. This helps our existing water supplies and shows intelligent negotiations will lead to win-win use, conservation, and sharing of our valuable water resources.

We Realtors also encourage development of: the proposed desalination plant in the Estancia Basin and pipe in additional treated water to the Santa Fe system, recycling of gray water to water our landscaping, developing existing water rights, purchasing future water rights, and completion of the Rio Grande diversion plant. To all our governing officials: help us move forward and implement the regional water authority to manage water resources between: City of Santa Fe, Santa Fe County, Rio Arriba County and the Eight Northern Indian Pueblos.

Buyer Tips

Title insurance insures you the property owner, against loss incurred as a result of claims that adversely affect title to your property. Santa Fe One Realty recommends our buyers also invest in additional coverage, by deleting exceptions 1-4, which protect the new owner from:

• Rights of claims of parties in possession not shown by the public records
• Easements, or claims of easements, not shown by the public records
• Encroachments, overlaps, conflicts in boundary lines, shortages in area, or other matters which would be disclosed by an accurate survey and inspection of the premises
• Any lien, claim or right to a lien, for services, labor or material heretofore or hereafter furnished, imposed by law and not shown on public records
