"Wow, where do I begin? David and his team were absolutely phenomenal. My sister and I co-owned a property that belonged to our mother. Neither of us had been in the house in 10+ years. So when we decided we wanted to sell it, we weren't sure where to start. David made this process so easy on us. For starters, my sister and I have really high expectations when it comes to transactions like this one. We interviewed several realtors in Albuquerque and once we spoke with David, we knew we'd found the person who could meet our needs. David was knowledgeable and transparent with us and never came across as salesy. Most importantly, we never stepped foot in the house during the sales process. David and his team managed getting the house ready for sale on our behalf. David flips houses, so has an extensive network of contractors and handy-people who did the work for us at extremely low rates. David and team were able to get the house ready to sell in about two weeks from the time our tenant vacated the property. Within about three days of listing, we had multiple offers and went under contract with a full-price offer. We closed shortly after and never had to return to Albuquerque to sign the paperwork or finalize the sale. I've done about half a dozen real estate transactions in my life and this one was by far the easiest. David and his team are absolute pros. I cannot recommend them enough!"

"My wife and I recently bought our first home through the Templeton Real Estate Team. <br /> <br /> First, we met up with David and Josh to discuss what we were looking for in a home and what our future plans are. We really appreciated the time David spent to understand our goals and dreams because we thought this enabled him to provide insight that was tailored to us and helped the process feel a little more personal. Specifically, we really appreciated David's experience which enabled him to offer guidance on resale value and rental potential for the properties we were looking at. We also really appreciated his knowledge of the Albuquerque area (we're new to the area). <br /> <br /> But David and Josh's help went far beyond just finding the right house. I felt David provided value throughout the negotiation, helping us understand the inspection and appraisals, as well as providing recommendations for inspectors and a loan officers, all of whom we were thrilled with. Josh and David's help demystified the house buying process and made us feel like we had family looking out for our best interests, throughout the buying process. <br /> <br /> Now that we're officially homeowners, we've appreciated Josh and David's continued help, resolving a couple questions about things like the houses security system with the seller. <br /> <br /> All in all, I can't imagine a better home buying experience, and look forward to working with the Templeton Team in the future."

"If you are looking to buy or sell in the Albuquerque / Rio Rancho area, then I would highly recommend Kevin as your realtor. Kevin was extremely knowledgeable about the areas, school districts, park locations, etc. We flew in from out of state for a 1-1/2 day house hunting trip and we toured close to 20 properties and stayed on schedule the whole time. Kevin was very organized with scheduling the tours, having packets already printed of each property, and really exceeded our expectations. I ended up choosing Kevin for a few different reasons: 1) He handles all showings himself, so you won't get passed off to an associate to show you homes, instead you have the actual agent 2) He has experience with appraisals and understands market comps very well 3) He is a licensed General Contractor and understands the condition of the home, needed repairs, upgrades, inspection process, etc 4) He is a real estate investor himself which I liked since I'm looking to purchase additional rental properties in the area and he understands investment property criteria well You won't be disappointed with Kevin, we'll definitely be utilizing him again!"

"Natalie was great. She spent a lot of time showing us homes in the ABQ area and subsequently represented us in purchasing a home. She is tenacious, in a good way, dedicated to her clients, diligent, and hardworking. She also has a big heart and always willing to help. I know I can call her anytime if I have questions regarding my property or any real estate questions, which I've done plenty of times. I recommend her to anyone that is wanting to sell or buy property. <br />"

"Started the view deck project with another contractor that I had to fire. Richard Shaw and his team Bill, Gilbert, and Cecil took over and they were absolutely amazing. They listened, offered a fair price, and performed the work to the high level of quality expectations that I had. They were here at my house day after day until the project was complete. No taking breaks and coming back later. They are the real deal. You want it done right and they get it done. <br /> I had a view deck built and I didn't want to worry about having too many people up there. They built the deck stronger than the house itself. The quality of craftsmanship was superb. I do a lot of my own work on my house, cars, boat, you name it. They performed the work better than I could have it done myself and I was truly impressed. When I evaluated contractors for the job I had three things in mind, price - quality - time frame. By far Richard Shaw and his team have everyone else beat hands down. Amazing work, amazing quality, and done for a reasonable amount. <br /> Trust me. I don't part with my hard earned dollars very easily but if I ever need anything done with my property my first call is to Richard Shaw because I know it will be done right."

"Pillar to Post did an excellent inspection, ensuring that all key points regarding the condition of the home were noted thoroughly. You receive at the end of the inspection, same day before leaving the house, a professional binder competed with all the known facts concerning your house. No waiting for days for a report to be finalized. Any adjustments or corrections were immediately taken care of with real time communication. Friendly, courteous and questions from the homeowner are encouraged. <br /> Pillar to Post was also able to inspect the home within several days. Inspection report is detail and comprehensive. <br /> Highly recommended. <br />"

"I have been involved in 10 or so real estate transactions in my life. I have had some real estate agents that I really liked, but none of them come close to Scott. I moved to New Mexico from Vermont, and what you need to know in order to buy a house here is almost completely different. The process is different, and what you look for in a house is different. Scot walked me through the entire process with patience, care and great expertise. <br /> <br />When you work with an agent and they ask you what your price range is, they almost immediately start having you look at houses that are well above what you gave as a price. Scott did the opposite. He never showed me a house that was more than $10,000 below (that is right: below) my price range. <br /> <br />When I flew out to Albuquerque to look at houses, I had given Scott 10 places that I found on realtor.com that I thought were good possibilities. Once we looked at those houses, Scott went home and spent the evening coming up with a new list based on what he thought I would like. His list turned out to be much better than my list. From his list I found 3 good possibilities, one of which I bought. <br /> <br />Once the purchase agreement was signed, Scott recommended what types of inspections I should get and suggested contractors who could do the inspections. I would have been lost without his help on this. He also helped me through the closing process, which I was doing remotely from Vermont. And finally, after the closing, he gave me a binder with all of the paperwork that was generated from the sale. This includes all of the inspection reports, the sales documents, etc. This is well above and beyond what I think he needed to do, and since I was actually driving out west during the closing, he saved me a lot of time and effort by doing this for me. In the midst of a complicated 2200 mile move, I really appreciated that. <br /> <br />The other thing about Scott is that he is knowledgeable on almost any topic related to real estate. I have never run into anyone who is as thoroughly versed in everything from pest control to septic systems to legal requirements and so forth. He is simply the most exceptional real estate agent - although that term hardly does him justice - that I have ever met. I can not imagine buying or selling real estate in this area using anyone but him."

"Frank did a thorough inspection of a residential property I had put an offer in on in the North Valley (I am a commercial real estate broker and have worked with Frank on many property deals in the past). He made time in his busy schedule to do this job as quickly as possible. His attention to detail, willingness to go the extra mile and in depth experience make him simply one of the best in the business. I completely trust his feedback and value the time and effort he puts in his reports. Buying property is a significant investment. With Frank's input, I feel I have all the important information on the condition of a property with which to make a good decision. His customer service is marvelous and he and his wife Sherry are always a pleasure to work with. He has my highest recommendation. <br />"

FAQs for appraisal real estate service projects in Tijeras, NM

The appraisal timeline begins with scheduling, which may take three to five days, depending on local appraiser availability. The on-site evaluation requires one to three hours based on property size and complexity. Following the inspection, appraisers need two to five days for research, analysis, and report preparation. The entire process takes seven to 10 days, though complex properties or government-backed loans may extend this timeframe.

The value of home appraisals extends beyond their immediate expense. They protect buyers from overpaying and help lenders ensure appropriate loan amounts. By providing independent market value verification, home appraisals help prevent potential financial missteps in major property transactions. This protection justifies the upfront cost for most real estate scenarios.

Home appraisers evaluate numerous property elements, including square footage, floor plan functionality, overall condition, and specific features. They document improvements, necessary repairs, and distinctive amenities. These observations are compared against similar properties recently sold in the neighborhood. Appraisers also consider location factors, current market conditions, and relevant zoning or property restrictions.

Yes, home appraisal fees are collected before the final closing. Since lenders require completed home appraisal reports before finalizing loan approvals, this cost occurs earlier in the transaction process. While buyers usually cover this expense, payment methods vary—some pay directly to the appraiser while others include it in closing costs.

Some property owners successfully use recent appraisals when challenging tax assessments. However, tax-assessed values often differ from market valuations. The appeal process involves submitting your appraisal as evidence that the tax authority's valuation exceeds actual market value. Success rates vary by jurisdiction, and the process may require patience and persistence.

From the buyer's perspective, appraisals verify they aren't overpaying for a property. Lenders won't approve financing that exceeds appraised value, potentially requiring buyers to renegotiate or contribute additional cash. Appraisal findings can also inform future improvement planning and investment decisions.

For sellers, preparation makes a difference. Clean, well-maintained properties present better during appraisal evaluations. Some sellers obtain pre-listing appraisals to establish appropriate asking prices, though most rely on the buyer's lender-ordered appraisal during the transaction process.
