The Albuquerque real estate investors market
Over the last decade, Albuquerque home prices have risen thanks to the thriving market and rise in popularity of this city. That said, there are still under-priced and under-valued homes for investors to capitalize on throughout the area. Often, these homes need some repairs, but are great for Albuquerque real estate investors because they’re priced below current market value.
Here’s a look at where we help Albuquerque real estate investors look for under-valued homes and where their best prospects for investor in the ABQ Metro area are.
Cabezon
Albuquerque real estate investors often find value in Rio Rancho homes in the Cabezon subdivision. Cabezon is a nice neighborhood with newer homes and many parks, walking trails, and an excellent school district. These homes were built from 2004 through 2008 and most of the major home builders have built homes in this subdivision.
Cabezon is centrally located in Rio Rancho and close to everything, including Intel and the Cottonwood Mall. Presbyterian Hospital is just a few miles from the Cabezon subdivision, as well. Several other commercial developments are also planned and up-and-coming in this area. Albuquerque real estate investors recognize this growth may increase rents and home values.
Ventana Ranch
Albuquerque real estate investors find Ventana Ranch a great subdivision to buy investment properties in due to the number of foreclosures and short sales in this subdivision. Ventana Ranch is located in northwest Albuquerque and is only a few miles from the Presbyterian Hospital in Rio Rancho.
Volcano Vista is a new high school in Ventana Ranch, and is very desirable for families. This area is a newer part of Albuquerque and will experience significant growth as the local area builds up around it. Many of the homes in Ventana Ranch were built after 2004 and all the major home builders have a presence there.
Enchanted Hills
Albuquerque real estate investors will find great value in the Enchanted Hills subdivision, located at the north end of Rio Rancho. Many renters and homeowners in this area work in Santa Fe. Rio Rancho’s new downtown is located a few miles from Enchanted Hills Subdivision. Hewlett Packard, Santa Ana Auditorium, Rio Rancho Administrative Offices, University of New Mexico, and Sprint are a few of the existing employers located nearby. Cleveland High School is an excellent new school located within a few miles of the Enchanted Hills Subdivision.
There are plenty of reasons renters find the Enchanted Hills subdivision a must-visit destination. And, even more people will be looking to buy here in the coming years. It’s a great area for long-term investors and fix-and-flips strategists alike.
Northern Meadows
Another destination for investors in the Rio Rancho area, Albuquerque real estate investors will instantly see the value of investing in the Northern Meadows subdivision, in northwest Rio Rancho. Northern Meadows has many of the same qualities as Enchanted Hills. It’s also located within a few miles of the Rio Rancho downtown area.
