This weekly radio show features host and Sotheby’s International Realty’s Associate Broker Rey Post (NM REC License #45660), as well as variety of special guests who offer news, information and commentary on current real estate, business, and community issues, important to home owners, buyers and sellers.
The “All Things Real Estate” (ATRE) radio show meets the standards established by the New Mexico Department of Health as an “essential business” (real estate-related and radio service), as defined in the state’s March 23, 2020 public health emergency order relating to the presence of coronavirus. As such, ATRE is committed to bringing timely and informative content to the public from some of the nation’s best business, non-profit, community, and real estate leaders. The guest commentators on this week’s show are emblematic of the quality of professionals who have helped to make ATRE a destination that people from all over the country turn to each Sunday.
In the first and second hours of the show, host Rey Post and his guest co-host Steve Riemann, President of the Santa Fe Title Company and their guests will offer a preview of the 2020 Haciendas “A Virtual Parade of Homes” . This major public event, sponsored by the Santa Fe Area Home Builders Association (SFAHBA) will air on October 16, 2020. For information about the October event, call: 505.982.1774. This Sunday’s special broadcast of the ATRE show is brought to you by The Santa Fe Title Company.
The 2020 Haciendas “Virtual Parade of Homes” will feature video presentations of some of the finest new build, and thoroughly remodeled homes in the Santa Fe region, along with one-on-one interviews with the builders of these exquisite properties. For more than two decades, the SFAHBA’s Parade event–normally staged over two weekends in August–has attracted members of the public from across the country. This year’s virtual presentation is being created as a way for an even larger number of people to enjoy all that makes Santa Fe home construction, remodeling, architecture, interior design, and landscape design, so highly regarded.
Though the SFAHBA has asked the ATRE program to air remotely from their annual event over the past 10 years, this special preview show on Sunday has been designed to meet the challenges of our coronavirus environment, while also highlighting what the virtual Parade event will offer in October. On Sunday, Rey and Steve will host a wide-ranging discussion with their guests on a variety of issues, including:
· * Conversations with the leadership of the SFAHBA, as well as home building professionals, community, real estate and business leaders about the state of the real estate market and home construction industry in the Santa Fe region.
· * Mortgage activity, the importance of title insurance, and the current home purchase closing process.
· * Home buyer and seller activities in the current coronavirus environment.

Rey’s “Real Estate Recommendation”:
Rey’s weekly real estate recommendation will offer information on the ongoing efforts of Sotheby’s International Realty to address the needs of home buyers and sellers, as the coronavirus situation continues. Rey will also share some thoughts on an ongoing element of teamwork, that he and all of his broker colleagues subscribe to. Specifically, that the marketing and administrative staff at the Santa Fe office of Sotheby’s International Realty are offering an even greater level of professional assistance to the company’s brokers and clients, during this exceptionally challenging period of time.
ATRE Marked 11 Years Of Airing On June 7, 2020
On June 7, 2009, the inaugural broadcast of the ATRE program was aired. Since then, the show has aired on 550+ occasions mostly in a two-hour format with more than 2,500 guest commentators coming from Santa Fe and national real estate, business, governmental, entertainment, and community organizations. Though Rey created the show and has hosted just about every 1st hour (and many of the 2nd hour broadcasts), a number of professionals have served as special guest hosts for many of the 2nd hour broadcasts of the show. Rey is honored that ATRE has been embraced by the listening audience, with people in Santa Fe, throughout New Mexico, and across the country selecting the show as a destination each Sunday. He is also very appreciative for the program’s corporate supporters, broadcast professionals at Hutton Broadcasting, and the marketing team at Sotheby’s International Realty, for all that they have done to make the show a success.

Giving Back to the Community
Since 2009, the “All Things Real Estate” (ATRE) radio show has offered air time to a variety of Santa Fe non-profit and community organizations. Representatives from organizations are able to use the ATRE program to share news and information with northern New Mexico residents about their services and activities. Over the years, some of the highly-regarded non-profit organizations featured on the ATRE program are: Cornerstones Community Partnerships; Think New Mexico; Las Campanas Compadres; the Santa Fe Concorso; Kitchen Angels; Creative Santa Fe; Dollars4Schools; and Youthworks. Senior Officers of the CHRISTUS St. Vincent Regional Medical Center, have also served as commentators on the program. In addition, Santa Fe Mayor Alan Webber—who has offered commentary on the show since first elected in 2018—speaks to the programs, events and community activities important to the residents of the city. In 2019, the Town of Taos collaborated with ATRE, in a year-long information series—sponsored by the Taos Ski Valley—called “This Is Taos.” Designed to offer useful information about this historic northern New Mexico community, the monthly show earned high marks from the public. Among the companies and non-profit organizations joining in supporting this monthly show series were: Taos Mesa Brewing; the Taos Center for the Arts; the Taos Arts Council; the Taos Gallery Association; the Taos Opera Institute; as well as Taos Behavioral Health, the Strong at Heart, and Taos MainStreet Accelerator projects.
