Thomas Chaves worked very hard for me!

Thomas Chaves worked very hard for me and was there whenever I had questions about a home or if I needed simple directions to find a place. He showed me Kindness and was very attentive to details. He can be counted on to provide clear insight into the market, and answer the hard questions covering Albuquerque real estate. Thank Thomas!

I highly recommend Thomas to anyone who wants the

Tomas Chaves helped both me and my mother purchase homes in Albuquerque. He is an excellent communicator and listener. He began by quickly showing us the best choices that matched our expectations. He was always flexible to our schedule and showed us new properties in some cases before they were listed. He had extensive experience and market research to share no matter what the property. In the end we found excellent homes for each of us at prices well below what we believed possible. He helped us through the loan process by making sure the lender was doing the best job for us as well. He even showed up at our signing with the lender and identified a few document changes that were needed which could have held up the sale if let alone. I highly recommend Thomas to anyone who wants the best realtor around.

I highly recommend Thomas for your Albuquerque rea

While looking for a house to buy, I dealt with a handful of realtors. I ran across Thomas after finding a prospective house to buy. Although I did not end up purchasing that particular house, Thomas continued to look for prospective houses in my price range and desired locations. I am now in the closing process on a house that perfectly meets my needs and desires. Thomas has been tirelessly helpful during my search, and negotiated me a great deal on my house. His knowledge, expertise, and professionalism has been very beneficial to me throughout the process, and I highly recommend him for any real estate needs.

I selected Thomas Chaves as our New Mexico Realtor

I selected Thomas Chaves as our New Mexico Realtor, online. I emailed our interest in working with him and he responded promptly. This was just prior to New Year's 2011. I'm was out-of-state buyer. Even though we lived in Albuquerque for a year (a few years ago) and know our way around (which helps), Thomas took on the challenge of working with me remotely. I believe he has a special designation and training in this. Having worked in the construction trade, Thomas has unique skills in sizing up houses that are stable, yet good deals. He is experienced in how the HUD home bidding and buying process works. He is able to point interested home buyers toward the online systems that can help them select homes they are interested in seeing. In working with us remotely, Thomas took a video camera to a home we were interested in. He posted the video online for our access. This way we could tell enough to know we wanted to bid on it. Thomas helped us through the bidding process and our contract was accepted. This was the beginning. I tend to be a "type A" homebuyer. Why look at the big picture when you can sweat the small stuff? Once I latch on to a house I want to buy, I'll drive anyone nuts until it's mine. I traveled to Albuquerque right before the big winter storm of February 2011. We were supposed to close on 2/8. Suddenly, the HUD home I was buying could not get it's inspections, meters, hookups. The entire state of NM was under a state of emergency. The home inspection was delayed. The closing was delayed twice. Homeowner's insurance policy effective dates were delayed. The gas company took twelve additional days to set a gas meter and turn on the gas. We were in the unfortunate position of getting the electricity and water turned on before there was gas for the furnace. Thomas brought one of his own space heaters over to help keep the pipes from freezing in some of the coldest, sub-zero weather to strike New Mexico in nearly forty years. My travel plans were delayed by a week. Through all of this, Thomas stayed in constant communication with me, offering concrete and moral support. He went above and beyond the role of realtor and became a trusted friend. The world is shifting and changing around us (literally) and Thomas (having experienced, firsthand, the perils of war as an Afghanistan veteran) stays calm, focused, loyal, and battle-ready. He offers strategic and tactical plans to survive the home buying process. I do not exaggerate. If you want a realtor to stand by you and bring home your sale, pick Thomas Chaves. He is humane, understanding, and universal in his dedication to his fellow human beings and travelers.

Being A First Time Home Buyer Was Scary!

Being a first time home buyer was scary but not knowing ANYTHING about purchasing a home was paralyzing. I knew that I didn’t want someone that was pushy, inexperienced, or just trying to make a buck off me, so initially I decided to go at it alone. I must have looked at hundreds of properties online and contacted three different realtors before calling Thomas. I knew instantly after contacting Thomas that he was the one. His professionalism, down to earth personality, and his experience were everything that I was looking for. I needed someone that I could trust and that would listen to exactly what we wanted in a home. After only seeing 20 properties we found our dream home....Literally. I never knew that we would be able to live in a house that had everything we needed to make it a home. Thomas made it so easy. He knew who we needed to talk to for financing, where we needed to go for closing, what we needed to sign and why. He was in constant contact letting me know exactly what I needed to do next. Who in the world takes the time nowadays to basically hold your hand and walk you through things? Thomas did. We are so grateful. Our home is the center of who we are. We’re raising our children in it. We hold our loved ones in it. We’ve created memories in it. We dream of our future in it. We are perfectly content being in our home everyday and night. I can’t thank Thomas enough. I cannot say enough good things about him and his work ethic. I cannot recommend him to enough people. I now consider him my personal friend. I look to him for advice quite often on home ownership. He has made our home buying experience one of our fondest memories. Thank you Thomas for all that you’ve done. You are a wonderful person and awesome at what you do.






Thomas helped me find the right home!

I had been looking for a home with no luck till I meet Thomas. He was able to walk me thought the whole process and made it seem effortless. He truly knows the business of real estate, and is a wealth of information. I had heard about HUD foreclosures and bank REO's and never knew how these worked. Thomas was able to explain each step as we went along, thanks.

I am so looking forward to my relocation to Rio Rancho, NM. The homes you have sent me to view are fantastic. I should be making a decision in the near future. Thank you






Stopped My Foreclosure!

Thomas, helped stop my foreclosure and sold my home in a week. I would have lost everything without his help, and say thank you enough. I know he can help you too, so don't wait give him a call.






Just the Right Home!

My boyfriend, Jason, and I had a great experience working with Thomas Chaves. He listened to exactly what we were looking for in a home and was flexible to our schedule to show us homes. He was personable, honest, and knowledgeable about the real estate market of Albuquerque. As first time home buyers, we could not have asked for a more caring and dedicated real estate agent that truly had our best intentions at heart. We love the home that Thomas found and if and when we ever choose to purchase again we will be using Mr. Chaves. Thank you,






Mrs. Martinez

We just told Thomas what we were looking for and he did all the rest. He found us the perfect home and helped us close on it quickly. Thanks again.
