Travel + Leisure anoints Santa Fe as a top leisure city

Frank — Wed, 10 Nov 2010 00:26:42 +0000

Well we didn’t make the cut for “Wild Weekend” or “Singles Scene” – no surprise there, but Santa Fe is #1 Cultural Getaway, #3 for B&Bs/Inns, and among the leaders for farmers’ markets and ethnic foods…. And the best time to visit? NOW!

365 Things, and a place to stay….

Frank — Tue, 09 Nov 2010 00:54:00 +0000

Over at Facebook, I’ve recently started a new page, 365 Things to do in Santa Fe. Go check it out – you don’t have to be a member to read it – www.facebook.com/365SantaFe/ Not sure if – or even when – I’ll reach 365, but it’s hopefully an eclectic list of places, events and locations that give some sense of our town’s variety. As Fall turns to Winter, my cosy two-person guesthouse is getting nicely booked up – we have a new guest from South Carolina today, for a month, and another, from California, in January. But Christmas is still available! You can reserve online – and see further details – at http://www.airbnb.com/rooms/42269?price=110

The Roller-Coaster Ride Called a Short Sale – NYTimes.com

Frank — Sat, 24 Jul 2010 14:58:48 +0000

Short sales are a gentler alternative to foreclosure for both sellers and lenders. “Compared to a foreclosure, a short sale generally allows an easier transition for the borrower, less impact on their credit history, and larger net proceeds to the loan’s owner,” said Tom Kelly, a spokesman for JPMorgan Chase, adding that Chase encourages borrowers who are unable to keep their homes to consider short sales.

Useful and informative story from the New York Times today about short sales and how to navigate them. Although Santa Fe wasn’t overbuilt as some towns were, we have a number of short sales and they’re in all price ranges & all levels of home, from Airport Road to Las Campanas.
