FOR THIS WEEKEND’S “ALL THINGS REAL ESTATE’ RADIO SHOW, JOIN SOTHEBY’S INTERNATIONAL REALTY ASSOCIATE BROKER—REY POST (NM REC LICENSE #45660), THE PROGRAM’S MAIN HOST AND HIS GUESTS, FOR AN AUTUMN INSPIRED CONVERSATION ABOUT REAL ESTATE AND BUSINESS ISSUES.

By Rey Post
Associate Broker, Sotheby’s International Realty
Host of the “All Things Real Estate” Radio Show
September 21 & 22, 2024

The “All Things Real Estate radio show airs this Saturday, September 21 (3pm Mountain Time) and Sunday, September 22 (12pm Mountain Time) on Santa Fe’s Talk 1260 AM KTRC and 103.7-FM, and streams on SantaFe.com, as well as via the “Listen Now” link at ATREradio.com.

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.

On the show airing this Saturday and Sunday, join Rey and his special guests-—Donna Jones White, owner of Santa Fe Vacation Rentals, and Ned Jacobs, a principal at the Quezada Jacobs Allstate Insurance Agency, for a conversation about current real estate and business issues, as we begin the fall season.

According to the National Weather Service, there are two times a year when the Earth’s axis is tilted to a point where there is “nearly equal amount of daylight and darkness at all latitudes.” The apparent equal hours of daylight and darkness result from the refraction of sunlight, or the bending of light’s rays. This refraction causes the Sun to appear above the horizon when it is actually below the horizon.

During the autumnal equinox—one of the two dates cited by the National Weather Service—the Sun crosses the celestial equator going from north to south. In the Northern Hemisphere after the autumnal equinox, the days begin to get shorter as the winter solstice gets closer.

Santa Fe Vacation Rentals, LLC, Update:

Besides speaking to the show theme—of how the fall season impacts her business—Donna will also review the home rental services that her company offers to domestic and international clients. In addition, Donna will discuss how she and her colleagues are constantly working to provide their clients—via the ATRE radio show and other communication tools—the most accurate news and data regarding the finest property rentals available in the city. Whether it is for a vacation destination, a furnished 30-day, or a long-term unfurnished property, Donna’s firm is well-known for offering some of the best options to visitors who make Santa Fe a destination. As one of the most popular commentators over the years on the ATRE radio show, Donna is offering her quarterly observations throughout 2024, on a variety of important Santa Fe real estate and business issues.

Insurance Update In Real Estate:

Ned will reflect on fall season-related insurance issues that he believes are important to home owners, buyers, sellers, renters and business owners. Of particular focus, Ned will share information about resources and tools offered by Allstate that enables homeowners to take preventive measures for their homes and yards, to protect against wildfires. Ned will emphasize that this topic is such a serious one for all homeowners in our region, that empowering them to learn more about taking action, truly works. Below—in another section of the email blast—Ned is offering additional information on wildfire prevention and fire proofing.

Ned will also offer information on how his clients can learn what the process is for filing a claim with Allstate, including tracking and settling the claim. And Ned will also review the value of insurance, as it offers protection and manages risk for consumers as we close out the month of September.

The Quezada Jacobs Family Allstate Insurance Agency, offers a range of products including home, condo, renter, auto, life and business insurance, designed to protect a consumer, personally and financially. In 2024, Ned has returned as a quarterly commentator on the ATRE program, offering answers to insurance questions that emerge throughout the year. Speaking to the value of working with Ned’s insurance agency, here is a testimonial from one of his happy clients.
