Alternative Housing in Taos There may not be a perfect world, but there is a Greater World. A world with no utility bills and no lawn mowers. An affordable world. A world with fresh air and soft rainwater. A world that respects individuals and the earth. A world of sunshine and flowers. Greater World is the first self-sufficient, off the grid, earthship community in the world. Earthships combine state of the art solar technology with age old adobe and rammed earth as well as the by-products of our society (tires, glass bottles, cans, etc.) to create unique dwellings with all the comforts of home. Lots start at $25,000. Earthship finished homes start at $160 per Sq. ft. Located on 633 acres of scenic high desert, Greater World is a great escape or great alternative to ho-hum housing.

Some things are hard to measure, and others are easy. Success in a real estate sale is easy. It occurs when the "SOLD" sign is in your front yard. And having that occur as quickly as possible is the goal of every real estate agent and every home seller.
You have undoubtedly heard that old saying about the "hard way" and the "easy way" to do something. The hard way to get the "SOLD" sign up is to try and sell it yourself. The easy way is to use the services of a real estate sales professional, someone who is not only trained to get it sold, but to get as much for your home as the market will bear.
Remember, the agent doesn't get paid until your home is "SOLD". And the amount they earn in commission is dependent upon the amount of the sale. That's a lot of genuine motivation to do the job right. Save yourself headaches and frustration when you are ready to sell--call a professional real estate agent.
