    Episode 585: 5-Year Home Price Forecast + Neighborhood Spin Wheel

    This week on Albuquerque Real Estate Talk, Tracy Venturi is joined by Asel Venturi for a fun, fast-moving episode covering the latest 5-year home price forecast and a new neighborhood spin wheel challenge. They start with national housing economist projections showing steady, moderate home price appreciation over the next five years, then bring it home with a local conversation about what that may mean for Albuquerque-area buyers and sellers. After that, the wheel decides the neighborhoods: Nob Hill, Huning Ranch, Huning Castle, and Lomas Encantadas. From Route 66 walkability and classic Nob Hill charm to Los Lunas convenience, Country Club-area history, Rio Rancho new construction, and the “would you rather” choices that define how people really shop for homes, this episode mixes useful market perspective with a lot of local personality.

    The ABQ Market Is Splitting: May Stats, Fast Sales, Price Cuts & Policy Changes

    The Albuquerque housing market is splitting. Some homes are still moving quickly, while others are sitting longer, seeing price reductions, or facing more competition. This week, Tego and Tracy Venturi look at the early May 2026 numbers for the Albuquerque area, including closed sales, inventory, price trends, months of supply, and the big differences between price ranges. They also explain why national housing headlines do not always match what is happening locally. Plus, they discuss the proposed Housing for the 21st Century Act, including possible changes related to modular housing, manufactured housing standards, financing, and small infill projects. Tracy also spotlights Four Hills, including current listings, pending sales, recent sales, lifestyle details, and why the neighborhood continues to stand out in southeast Albuquerque.

    Ep. 582: What’s in an Albuquerque Street Name? Builders, History & ABQ Home Values

    Why is it called Menaul? Who was Eubank? And was Juan Tabo even a real person? In this episode of Albuquerque Real Estate Talk, Tracy and Tego Venturi dig into the stories behind some of Albuquerque’s most recognizable street names, from Atrisco and Griegos to Tramway, Osuna, Menaul, Eubank, Central, and the mystery of Juan Tabo. Tracy also explores the legacy of iconic Albuquerque builders like Mossman, Snow, Bellama, Rutledge, Wood Brothers, and Richland Homes, and why their neighborhoods still matter to today’s buyers. Tego also breaks down the latest FHFA Home Price Index, including where Albuquerque ranks nationally, what 1.8% year-over-year appreciation really means, and why local housing markets can look very different from national headlines. The episode wraps with a practical “would you rather” for sellers: take the quick private cash offer, or list the home properly and aim to net more money? In this episode: The origins of Albuquerque street names like Menaul, Eubank, Osuna, Atrisco, Tramway, and Central The mystery and folklore behind Juan Tabo How post-war builders shaped the Northeast Heights Why Mossman, Snow, Bellama, Rutledge, Wood Brothers, and Richland homes still stand out Albuquerque’s latest FHFA home price numbers Why national real estate headlines do not always apply locally Cash offer convenience vs. getting the most money for your home Featured Albuquerque-area homes and market activity Have a question about Albuquerque real estate, local neighborhoods, home values, or the history behind where you live?

    Ep. 582: Are Foreclosures Actually Surging? Plus ABQ Days on Market & Why Deals Fall Through

    In episode 582 of Albuquerque Real Estate Talk, Tracy and Tego Venturi bring the receipts to counter the latest national media narrative about rising foreclosures. The reality for the Albuquerque area is that less than one in 100 homes with a mortgage are facing foreclosure. Tego and Tracy break down the mid-May 2026 stats, exploring why looking at the median days on market provides a much clearer picture of inventory than the average. They also unpack the 16 percent contract fallout rate to show exactly why pending sales fail, discuss the historical data on the best time of year to list a home, and play a few rounds of real estate "Would You Rather".

    Manufactured vs Modular Homes in New Mexico + ABQ Market Update

    What’s the difference between a manufactured home, a modular home, and a mobile home — and why does it matter so much in New Mexico? In Episode 581 of Albuquerque Real Estate Talk, Tracy and Tego Venturi explain the key differences between manufactured and modular homes, including HUD standards, local building codes, permanent foundations, deactivated titles, HUD tags, data plates, financing challenges, and resale concerns. They also discuss why manufactured homes are more common outside the Albuquerque core, especially in rural and semi-rural areas like the East Mountains, Los Lunas, Edgewood, and other parts of Central New Mexico. This episode also includes a quick Albuquerque market update, featured homes around the metro area, and a practical conversation about which home features actually add value — including pools, indoor pools, artificial turf, home theaters, golf simulators, and backyard improvements.

    Albuquerque Real Estate Talk Ep. 580: The Summer Rush, Weird Market Stats & Overrated Home Features

    The summer real estate season is almost here, and the Albuquerque market is not behaving quite like expected. This week, Tracy and Tego Venturi look at the latest Albuquerque housing numbers, including fewer active listings than last year but more homes under contract. That combination creates an unusual market where some homes are still sitting, while others are suddenly getting multiple offers. They also talk through buyer and seller strategy for the summer rush, including why buyers need to know their payment comfort, have a local lender ready, understand the process, and be prepared to act when the right home appears. Plus, Tracy puts Tego on the spot with a round of real estate hot takes: great house in a bad neighborhood, perfect location with an ugly interior, cheap price with a long commute, rooftop decks, gray cabinets, and more. The episode also includes Albuquerque summer activity ideas, Tracy and Tego’s story of getting into real estate, the importance of mentorship, and a Venturi Realty Group team update as Lisa Pino returns as Director of Operations.

    In episode 578 of Albuquerque Real Estate Talk, Tracy and Tego preview the Central New Mexico Home Builders Association’s Parade of Homes (April 24–26 and May 1–3), highlighting prices from about $479,000 to $1,000,006, the featured community Mesa Del Sol, and how to use the Parade website map to plan tours across areas like Oxbow, North Albuquerque Acres, Sandia Park, Placitas, Rio Rancho, and infill new construction near Wyoming and Montgomery. Tego also shares a new market-data resource at re.abq.com with MLS monthly stats, a weekly snapshot of listings vs. pendings, and a Zillow home value index showing about 1% year-over-year growth. They discuss rising activity, mortgage application and rate trends, and low first-time-buyer share, then take a deep dive into “accidental landlords,” outlining whether a home works as a rental, the real costs (insurance, management, maintenance, vacancy, turnover), landlord readiness, and benefits like cash flow, appreciation, mortgage paydown, and tax advantages, including using LLMs to analyze rent-vs-sell decisions.
