| About Taos Properties |
Lisa Cancro, Owner / Qualifying Broker Thank you for visiting our website. I hope that I can be of service to you as you begin your search for property in the Land of Enchantment. I have lived in the Taos community for the past eleven years moving from New York with my husband John and our two daughters Alexandra and Olivia who are now thirteen and fourteen. The benefits of living in this small, diverse and multi-cultural community have been many. My connection to this community is strong and has helped me develop a sense of security, comfort, and well being over the years. One of the most significant and gratifying aspect of Taos, is getting to know the people and becoming connected in ways that only a close knit community can offer. Through our children as well as being business owners in Taos we have kept involved and active in our community on a daily basis. The other exciting aspect of living in this area is the ability to be immersed in nature and the many outdoor activities that are available to us. I spend the winter month mainly on the slopes of the Taos Ski Valley, while the summer evenings are set-aside for tennis, gardening and entertaining with family and friends. I graduated from Syracuse University in 1984 and then immediately went to work in Manhattan for a Siebel/Mohr, a sales promotion agency for the next seven years. After our daughter’s were born, we moved from the east coast (stopping in Wyoming for a few months) and landed in Taos. I spent the first few years helping to establish my daughter’s current school- Yaxche Learning Center and then helped to create and become director of the Taos School of Cooking. The TSC (link) was created in 2001, as an ongoing fundraiser to help raise scholarship funds for Yaxche. Through the creation of themed classes and specialty chef dinners we have raised over $50,000 while creating a positive environment for celebrity chefs to teach and adults to learn the art of culinary cooking. The Cooking School has helped me understand how diverse Taos really is while improving my business management talents, focus to details, and most importantly helping to better educate the children of our community. I also have worked with my husband since we established Taos Properties Real Estate Investments in 1999. I focused on daily business administration as well as marketing. I have now decided to take more of an active role in the sales area becoming a Sales Associate. My objective in this business is to assist you in finding the right property for your needs as well as helping you to understand the market and potential of real estate in the Taos area. I look forward to working with you and your family to accomplish your goals; whether it’s buying or selling a home, business or land. Please feel free to e-mail me or call me at your convenience to discuss your intentions for real estate in Taos. I look forward to working together and hearing from you soon.
