Taylor Ranch Real Estate Trends - Absorption Rate

This is the rate at which homes are absorbed by the market. By measuring the number of homes in inventory and the number of homes sold, we can estimate how long it will take to sell homes currently available.

Today there are 320 homes available in the Taylor Ranch area. Since January 1, 2008 through August 31st we have sold 241 homes which gives us an absorption rate of 30 per month in our neighborhood and over a 10 month inventory of homes on the market, if homes continue to sell at the same rate - and assuming no new listings become available. Homes are continuing to sell in Taylor Ranch, but the listing inventory is drastically out of synch with the number of buyers. In order for any property to sell under these circumstances, it MUST be priced right! Over priced homes don't stand a chance! They will languish on the market for month after month and, as prices are forced lower by market conditions, homeowners will have to make price cuts later, possibly far below today's "right" price.

Looking For Italian Home-Style Cooking

I first came to know Mimmo's by way of a friend who introduced to the place. The owner, it turns out, is from Italy and the manager is from New York City, an awesome combo. While looking like just another casual pizza joint from the outside, inside you find a great relaxed atmosphere and the best eats on the Westside and Taylor Ranch. No stuffy self-importance of some the places in Albuquerque, nor the canned taste of others, just great home-style Italian cooking.

The pizza, the best in town, tastes nothing like you'll find anywhere else in Albuquerque. Just a little slice of heaven. Great food, quality service and atmosphere, you can't go wrong with an evening at Mimmo's. Kids are welcome and the seating is accommodating. You'll feel right at home.

Enjoy!
