We believe this property is an excellent short to long-term investment in an area that has all of the conveniences of a larger urban area, but is located in a private, rural setting. This property is located in spectacular Taos County in North-Central New Mexico just south of the Colorado Border! This area offers low property taxes, inexpensive housing, the convenience of a nearby larger cities (Santa Fe and Albuquerque), and an abundance of open space. The high deserts, mountains, canyons, rivers, and forests of North-Central New Mexico proved a quality of life virtually unknown to most of the world. Property values in New Mexico have soared in recent years due to migrations of retirees enticed by the pleasant climate and the relaxed low-key lifestyle of the Southwest. Investors and business entrepreneurs have are also relocating to the area due to its friendly business atmosphere and strategic location between Texas, Arizona, California, and Mexico. The potential for growth has already been demonstrated in nearby Albuquerque and Santa Fe. As property values in these areas continue to increase, Taos County has excellent potential for future growth! Private property will soon be beyond the reach of a lot of Americans as the populations continues to increase especially in "best kept secret" areas like Taos County. Niche investment properties in resort areas such as the Rocky Mountain West enjoy growing value. Please click on this US News and World Report article concerning growth in the rural American West. Taos fulfills the needs of those looking for a new adventure in living, a prudent investment, and a legacy property to pass on to their children. Taos has experienced a steady population growth of around 6 percent a year since the year 2000. Only 38 percent of Taos County is privately owned with the remainder owned by the Federal and State governments and Native American Reservations leaving a very limited amount of land available for private ownership. Out of the privately owned portion, fewer and fewer places remain where one can enjoy privacy and the amenities that will provide peace of mind and relative freedom. The opportunities for acquiring undeveloped conservation-grade properties are diminishing. Nolan Rosall is president of Colorado-based RRC Associates, an economic consulting firm specializing in the mountain resort industry. He writes, "Because many mountain communities are surrounded by U.S. Forest Service lands that restrict their development boundaries, there will be a limited supply of developable land in communities that have a short supply of privately held property. Those places could become built out in a very short time." Taos is one such area; it is virtually surrounded by BLM and U.S. Forest Service land, which limits the opportunity for development. As a property owner in this area you can declare your independence from metropolitan chaos and escape to a quiet, secluded, enriched life for you and your family for generations to come.

The sky is clear and stars shine brightly at night. Air quality is excellent and there is almost no pollution. The land in the region is generally rolling to flat with native grasses and stands of pine trees. Along the dramatic Rio Grande river gorge there are stands of cottonwoods and riparian plants and animals. The mountains offer spectacular lakes, streams, forests, and vistas.
