PEOPLE AND HORSES WELCOME WHERE THE BUFFALO ROAM ...

12+ Acres   Santa Fe   Santa Fe County  New Mexico

Beautiful horse property for sale! Rancho de las Barrancas (Badlands) dates back to one of the original Spanish land-grants in NM. The ranch is set in the middle of a cottonwood bosque near the Pojoaque River and its owners relationship with their Native American neighbors has been an integral part of its history. Previous owners have included Hollywood celebrities who used to land a helicopter on the ranch, a race horse breeder, and a reining horse trainer. The Pojoaque Pueblo buffalo pasture is directly adjacent to the ranch boundary and ranch occupants often see the herd and are respectful of Pueblo rituals performed to maintain and bring back the bison to the land. Pojoaque Pueblo offers free permits to ranch occupants to horseback ride and hike along the river, effectively ensuring access to natural open space, extending to the Rio Grande. The main double adobe house dates back 200 years and is the epitome of a Northern New Mexico hacienda.  Behind large adobe walls, a 2 acre main compound embraces the fully restored main house with 6 fireplaces, a modern cook's kitchen, 3 car heated garage now used as artist studio, swimming pool, tennis court, fruit trees, and a 2 bedroom/2 bath adobe guest house. Outside the walled compound is a "caretakers" house, 2 arenas, a 12-stall barn, extensive turnouts, historic tack-room, hay barn and stud pen. This is a horse lover's paradise 20 minutes from downtown Santa Fe with easy access to fine dining, the opera, museums, art galleries, golf, hiking & skiing.

Do you have a high-end ranch or gentlemans ranch valued at $5 million or more that just won't sell?  You can continue to try selling it through traditional means, but that could takes months if not a year or more.  You'll spend thousands of dollars on carrying costs in the meantime.  You'll probably use one price reduction after another trying to get a buyer.  However, the buyers will continue to watch your price fall, because there is no sense of urgency to act.  This is why selling ranches and luxury real estate at auction is the answer.  We do what your real estate agent cannot do--assemble multiple interested parties on one day, create a deadline to act, and force a competitive environment on auction day that leads to selling your property at top dollar.  You can immediately stop dropping your price and put a timeline on when your ranch will sell. If it's a desirable property, this will cause buyers to act now, because they know tomorrow will be too late.

Our company operates in a specialized niche and has sold hundreds of homes and properties all over the country using this method.  We specialize in only high-end properties, have a great reputation and many referrals from previous clients.  Our buyers are pre-qualified, closings happen in 30 days, there are no contingencies, and properties are sold as is.  We get the property sold generally in 60-90 days.

If you would like to discuss the option of selling through auction, please call me so we can discuss your property to see if we can assist you.  We also work directly with real estate agents that refer clients to us and pay a referral.
