Rio Rancho, Corrales, Placitas, Bernalillo, Algodones Real Estate
Thursday, March 11, 2010

Rio Rancho's real estate prices and sales continue to improve! My weekly MLS market statistics show that after hitting bottom in the Spring of 2009, recovery has been underway since June. Sales prices and number of units sold have improved while inventory (the supply of houses for sale) has steadily declined. With home prices at historically affordable levels, mortgage rates at historically low levels, abundant inventory to choose from, and government incentives, this could be a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to buy a home!

As part of the Albuquerque Metro Area, Rio Rancho, Placitas and Corrales share all of the wonderful cultural, recreational and educational opportunities of Albuquerque. Recently ranked #1 on HousingPredictor's "Top 25 Real Estate Markets", #1 on Forbe's list of "Best Places for Business and Careers" and third on Kiplinger's "50 Smart Places to Live", these areas retain their wide-open feel, low-to-no pollution, little traffic congestion and pleasant year-round climate, with all that New Mexico has to offer.
