Zillow has become a very popular search for home evaluation across the country taking information from the public sites such as county and city property tax registrations. Unfortunately, in the State of New Mexico, Zillow doesn't work.
New Mexico is a Public Non-Disclosure state. This means that public records are limited disclosure in New Mexico. Anyone can call up the county or query the city or county Taxation Dept. or Assessor's website to find how much tax is paid on a property, due, legal description and owners name and mailing address. If you want more information, you can ask a REALTOR if they can find out further information. We have relationships with Escrow Officers at Title companies. Title companies have accessibility to more information than we or the general public does. They are able to find out the name of the MOST CURRENT mortgage company (re-fi or home equity loan but maybe not the original mortgage loan information).
If the property has been sold on an REC (Real Estate Contract), the Title company can find out the purchase price of the property if the REC was recorded with the county.
So, when it comes to home valuation, again, it's best in the State of New Mexico to get it from a knowledgeable, experienced REALTOR.
