Kathleen Tomlinson with Coldwell Banker Legacy A Multi-Million Dollar producing Realtor at Coldwell Banker Legacy, Specializing in Luxury Home Sales I am a proud native of Albuquerque, New Mexico.

I graduated from Eldorado High School and continued my education at the University of New Mexico where I obtained my bachelor’s degree in Sociology. I have a strong background in Customer Service. I managed many sales teams in a Corporate Environment for many years. Yet my passion all along was in Real Estate. I learned from a young age what it meant to own your own rental properties. I grew up in a family that owned several and I painted many apartments and houses to earn some income while attending Junior High and High School. I left Corporate and in 2007 I decided to go to Real Estate School and obtain my license. That was the best decision I ever made! I owned a few rental properties myself but the biggest joy I get is working with Sellers and Buyers in the Residential market. I have learned through my years in Real Estate that every sale is different, and my client’s needs are different. No matter what the Sales price of the home my clients receive the same exceptional service from me. My experience has given me a wide variety of knowledge in handling different sales. Of course, I learn something new every day, yet I take great pride in having a large catalog of knowledge. In addition, being a native of New Mexico I know the market in the different counties in the state. I have handled multiple transactions for both Buyers and Sellers in the different areas
Today I am a proud Multi-Million Dollar producer with Coldwell Banker Legacy. I am an expert in a variety of Residential Sales, Estates, Luxury Homes, Investment Properties, Distressed Properties, Land. You may contact me anytime. I look forward to your business!

How I started baking and cooking.....

When I was around 5 years old, every weekend I would climb up on the counter and cook my Mom and Dad breakfast. My parents would tell me and others what a wonderful cook I was. My Dad commented years later that he hadn't eaten so many shells in his eggs as he did when I began making them breakfast😂

Later I graduated in my cooking skills and my Mom and Dad bought me an Easy Bake Oven. I do have to admit that is when I realized I had a talent for baking. My family couldn't wait to see what bake goods I would be making in my Easy Bake Oven. It actually did a pretty good job of baking some of my favorites back then. I even had a recipe to make soft pretzels in it

One Christmas my Mom and Dad bought me the Betty Crocker Cookbook that I still refer to to this day for recipes. Through the years I would have dinner ready for my folks when they got home from work and my brother and I were home from school. I began collecting cherished recipes that had been passed down through the family. I was even able to get family recipes from our neighbors and friends through the years. Still to this day I love to bake and cook. It's a time I can relax and enjoy the many wonderful smells of the kitchen!

What Should Stay With the House When You Sell?
A buyer tours your home and sees the dining room light fixture, garage shelving, and smart doorbell. You may see personal belongings that will move with you. The buyer may assume some of those same items are part of the house.
Sorting that out early can prevent confusion once an offer is on the table.
Don't...

Buyers and sellers don't always make the same assumptions about what stays with a home. Clarifying fixtures, appliances, and other items early can prevent confusion later.

When to Repair, Replace, or Leave a Home Feature Alone
Not every worn, dated, or imperfect part of a home needs to be replaced. Sometimes a relatively small repair can add years to its useful life. In other cases, continuing to patch the same problem costs more time and money than replacing it.
Knowing which approach makes sense starts with looking at more...

Not every worn or dated part of a home needs to be replaced. Learn how to weigh condition, repair history, function, and future plans before deciding what to do.

How to Evaluate a Home's Maintenance History
A home can look well cared for during a showing and still leave plenty of questions about how it has been maintained over the years. Fresh paint and an orderly yard are easy to notice. The condition and history of the systems behind the walls aren't always as obvious.
You don't need a complete record...

A home's maintenance history can reveal more than its current appearance. Learn what buyers can look for when reviewing repairs, updates, and major systems.

What to Do When Your Home Has Been on the Market Longer Than Expected
Most sellers have a rough idea of how long they expect their home to take to sell. When that timeline stretches, it's easy to focus on the number of days the listing has been active.
The more useful question is why buyers haven't moved forward.
Sometimes the answer is price. Other times, the home is...

A slower-than-expected home sale may call for more than patience. Take a fresh look at price, presentation, feedback, and how the listing is reaching buyers.

Ways to Repurpose an Underused Room
Some rooms slowly stop serving a real purpose. A formal dining room may only get used a few times a year. A spare bedroom may become a holding area for boxes and things that don't have another home. Even a finished basement or loft can end up sitting mostly empty.
That doesn't always mean the room needs...

An underused room doesn't have to stay that way. A few practical changes can turn extra space into something that works better for everyday life.

What Buyers Should Know About Property Disclosure Forms
When you're buying a house, the disclosure form can be easy to skim past. It often arrives alongside other paperwork, but it can provide useful background on the property before you move further into the transaction.
What sellers must disclose varies by state, so the form isn't the same everywhere....

A property disclosure form can offer useful clues about a home's history and known issues. Buyers should know what the form can tell them, what it may leave out, and where an inspection still matters.

What Fall Buyers Notice During a Home Tour
A home tour in the fall looks nothing like a home tour in June, and that's not just because of the weather. When the leaves begin to change and the light grows dim earlier in the day, a house has a way of showing the wear and tear that summer landscaping and long evenings tend to hide. When you're viewing...

Fall home tours reveal details that summer showings tend to hide, from curb appeal to how well the heating holds up. Here's what buyers should watch for this season.

Small Home Problems to Address Before the Season Changes
A loose gutter or a drafty window rarely feels urgent, not until the temperature drops and small issues turn into a real repair bill. Walking through your property with a critical eye before the season turns can save you time, money, and a fair amount of frustration later on.
Check What's Happening...

A few small maintenance tasks now can prevent costly repairs down the road. Here's what to check around your home, inside and out, before the season changes.
