Each month, the program features its main host and Sotheby’s International Realty Associate Broker—Rey Post , or other real estate professionals who also host their own version of the program. Since 2009, the show’s hosts—joined each week by a variety of guest commentators—have made ATRE a favorite weekend destination for listeners from all over the country.
Steve Riemann hosts his monthly broadcast—with his colleague, Escrow Officer Rebecca Roybal—speaking to a variety of general real estate and title insurance issues important to home buyers and sellers. Their special guest this month is Heather Lamboy, the newly appointed Director of the City of Santa Fe Planning & Land Use Department.
Santa Fe Title Company Update:
Steve and Rebecca will ask Heather to not only summarize her job responsibilities, but also highlight planning and land use issues that the City of Santa Fe is focusing on this fall and going forward. The Planning and Land Use Department’s mission is to provide expert land use, planning and development guidance, and regulation that supports the goals of the community. The department achieves this by providing creative problem-solving and customer service-oriented support and administration related to the City’s Land Development Code, building codes, and policies. Steve and Rebecca will also use this month’s broadcast to discuss a variety of real estate and title issues that consumers bring to the home purchase closing process. Steve and Rebecca’s observations will include what the state of the real estate market is in October 2024, and the importance of title insurance in all home buying/selling transactions. As a certified instructor of real estate in New Mexico, Steve will also underscore why consumers should strive to partner with well-educated real estate professionals.
The Santa Fe Title Company is committed to providing the best service possible for home buyers, including top notch closing services and delivering title insurance protection covering invalid liens, false claim of rights, and heirs that have not been identified, to name a few. Steve was the very first guest on the ATRE show in June 2009. Throughout 2024, he and Rebecca are serving as expert commentators on the ATRE program, co-hosting the show on the second weekend of each month.

Rey’s weekly real estate recommendation offers news and information on a variety of home buying and selling, community, and business issues–as well as world events–that impact the lives and work of consumers and real estate professionals. Since “everything” is real estate—in one way or another—Rey’s commentary is intended to offer a perspective that speaks to a range of topics, no matter their origin. For this week, Rey highly recommends that you tune in for the show that Steve Riemann is hosting.
Reflections On The Brokers And Listings Of Sotheby’s International Realty:
Steve and Rebecca will share Rey’s thoughts on the professional expertise, knowledge and commitment of his fellow associate broker colleagues at Sotheby’s International Realty, as well as the quality of the listings that the company offers to home buyers who wish to make Santa Fe their home.
SFAR Real Estate Highlight:
The New Mexico Home Builders Association has released a new survey of its members designed to guide further research and encourage policy reforms that can improve housing attainability across New Mexico. The data gathered from homes builders and lot developers helps to estimate the cumulative cost of regulations and their impact on home prices. The study finds that regulations imposed by federal, state, and local governments account of an average of 38.8% of the purchase price of a new home in New Mexico – a whooping impact. Contact the association for more information about the specific costs associated with this regulatory housing burden. Go to: www.nmhba.com.
