Market activity–especially for homes and condos–is intense: multiple offers are common, with buyers often offering above asking price. This sort of market behavior has rarely occurred in Taos, even during the boom years of 2000 – 2007. Spurred by the work-from-home paradigm that the Covid-19 pandemic created, and fueled by interest rates that remain extremely low, robust demand for homes and condos in Taos is expected to continue into the foreseeable future.

Land sales are way up vs. last year, as some frustrated home buyers are deciding to build instead of searching in vain for an existing home to buy. Commercial sales are still zero for the year through July.
