Agency Sotheby's International Realty - Santa Fe - Main Downtown Brokerage

Description

John Rigatti has deep and broad knowledge of the Santa Fe real estate market, having lived and worked here for more than 18 years. He specializes in the buying and selling of luxury properties in the greater Santa Fe area, including the historic East Side, Las Campanas, and Tesuque.


John’s financial acumen is appreciated by his clientele; he earned an MBA in finance from New York University and enjoyed a 20-year career on Wall Street. John’s buyer clients rely on his frank and honest assessments of potential properties and his eagerness to “leave no stone unturned” as he helps them find the perfect home. For sellers, he provides exceptional service that makes an often-complicated transaction as seamless as possible.


With a dry sense of humor underlying a warm and engaging demeanor, John is dedicated to his clients. “I love when someone finds a house that clicks for them, and they get so excited about it. It makes my job very rewarding.”


John moved to Santa Fe from New York City in the late 90’s, drawn by the lifestyle, weather, natural beauty, and small-town ambience. He can be found hiking with his wife Margaret and their dog Lilly, having breakfast al fresco at Big Tesuque, or dining at his favorite Italian restaurant in town with Margaret and their two adult children.


John is passionate about his family, his community, and his health and fitness. He is a former board member of Desert Academy School and served as the vice president of his community HOA board. He is an avid baker (pizza, bagels, and pretzels are his specialties), gifting friends with his homemade creations. Few people know that John is the owner of a 13-year-old, 35-pound African spurred tortoise named Henry.


While John may have found a great balance between work and life, that doesn’t mean he won’t drop everything to take a call from a client or run out to preview a property. Indeed, his deep market knowledge, attention to detail, and dedication to customer service are reflected in the number of repeat clients and referrals he has received since he began his career.

Description

Steeped in history and Santa Fe style, the main Santa Fe office is known as the Padre Gallegos house. As a historically contributing structure, it was named for Padre Jose Manuel Gallegos, a colorful and controversial priest and politician, and was built around 1857. In addition to being a chapel and an art gallery, it also housed soldiers and government officials during the Civil War. The protected courtyard features sunny luncheons in summer produced by an award winning local restaurant. As the third largest fine art market in the US, Santa Fe is full of galleries and museums in historical compounds such as the main office.
