Hi, I am Emma Griego, I have an extensive background in the real estate industry, with over twenty (20) years experience in new sales and ten (10) years in the resale end of the business. My real estate experience started in Texas, but I decided to come back to New Mexico in 1982 to raise my two wonderful sons. Since that time, I have worked in Los Lunas, Belen, Socorro, and several other New Mexico areas, and have enjoyed every minute of it. Currently, I am very interested in working into another area of this business, which is the sale and listing of farms and ranches. I was born on a ranch, and as a child, my father, along with his brother, owned a two section ranch east of Socorro, New Mexico, so ranching is not unfamiliar to me. I chose Centerfire Real Estate because Centerfire is the Cadillac of real estate companies. Cell: 505-450-7351 email: emmag@nmranchandland.com

Shanna Salsberry, Bookkeeper

Priscilla Chapman, I came to Centerfire Real Estate from the Pacific Northwest. Having lived in Washington State all my life I was ready for a drier climate along with the sun. After working 24 years in a hospital as a medical coder I decided it was time for a career change, too. So I packed up my Maine Coon cats and here I am, enjoying the sunrise and sunset each day brings. I see that the weatherman looks for rain "down here" just like he looks for sun "up there" I enjoyed the Evergreen state in all its beauty.
     One of the most awesome things to share about living in Washington State was that I witnessed Mt. St. Helens blow its top May 18, 1980 from the 7th floor of the hospital where I worked. On that day my family and I went down to the Cowlitz River to watch the logs roll down the river and the fish jumping as the water was steaming hot from the blast.
I learned many things about real estate when I sold my home to move to New Mexico. Taking care of the client, whether as a seller or a buyer, their needs can differ, but the basic needs are the same. Communication is key as well as understanding each person in their time of change. Whether you are in need of downsizing, land, homes or relocating, I can handle your needs including handicap accessibility. Come see New Mexico through eyes of wonder and amazement with me. 505 715-8891 cell. priscilla072365@msn.com

My knowledge of farming, ranching, and hunting has proven to be invaluable as part of the Centerfire team. cell #505-350-9775, gtnunn@aol.com

My name is Shelly LeSueur and I am a Native New Mexican, raised in beautiful Catron County New Mexico. I come from an Agricultural background including everything from raising sheep, pigs and steers in 4-H and FFA, to riding horses, team roping, working in the log woods as a teenager, irrigating pastures and building fence and hunting. When growing up in Catron County these are the kinds of things we did, as there was not a lot to do that did not involve work! We did however find time to play a lot of basketball and sneak out of town for an occasional dance.

I am married and have one child. I enjoy being outside, working in the yard, riding, roping and making western crafts and home décor in a little shop I have out back. I currently live in central, NM where I have been since 1994. I enjoy meeting new people and would like a chance to meet you and help you with all of your Real Estate needs. Due to my experiences and background, I can help you find that special property that you are looking for whether it be remote spot in the woods, Farm or Ranch, Hunting, Horse Property or Residential.
