Kelly R Taliaferro

Hello and thank you for visiting! As a full time, full service residential real estate specialist, I look forward to helping you buy or sell your next home in the Albuquerque, NM, area. Here is a little bit about me: I grew up in sunny Southern California. In high school and college I played soccer, ran cross country and track, and enjoyed the outdoors (not much has changed since then actually!) I was awarded an Army ROTC scholarship and attended Dartmouth College in Hanover, NH. I earned my BA in biology and my secondary teaching certification. For 6 years I taught high school and middle school science, coached various sports, and took adolescents backpacking in CT and NY. While in NYC I also earned my MA in curriculum and teaching at Columbia University. In 2002 I married my husband, Hank. We moved to NM so that my husband could complete his residency in emergency medicine at UNM. Once he finished, we couldn't leave. We love the Land of Enchantment! We enjoy camping, bird watching, hunting and, of course, soccer and running! Our family has grown over time. We now have two boys, two dogs, a cat and a snake. So... what makes me different from other Realtors? I am a real person and I really care. I am well educated, well traveled and intelligent. I have the CRS designation, am a member of the Elite 25 and opened my own brokerage in 2013! I also have a strong work ethic and I always do my best for my clients. Additionally, I am an experienced real estate investor. I utilize the latest technology to set my listings apart and to help my buyers find the perfect home for the right price. Please give me a call. I would love to help you meet your real estate goals!
