Questions
Is the opinion of value really free?
Yes. There is no charge and no obligation to list with us.
Is the opinion of value an appraisal?
No. It's a broker's opinion of what the market will likely pay. If your lender needs an appraisal, you'll need a licensed appraiser.
Will my employees find out I’m selling?
Not from us. We market confidentially and require a signed agreement before anyone sees property details.
Do you only sell hotels?
Hotels and motels are most of what we do. Steele also handles homes in Las Cruces and Doña Ana County.
