Meet Your Local Guide

Gene Della Maggiora

REALTOR® & Associate Broker | Coldwell Banker Legacy

Helping you find your place in New Mexico.

I created Experience Albuquerque to share the places, neighborhoods, and everyday discoveries that make life here distinctive.

When I moved from the San Francisco Bay Area, I learned that finding a home was only part of settling in. Feeling at home came through local restaurants, walks along the acequias, neighborhood markets, and the people I met along the way.

Today, I live on a small farm in Los Ranchos de Albuquerque with my husband, Tim, our rescue dog, Ruffles, and our sheep and chickens. Our orchard produces apples, peaches, and cherries, and our gardens are filled with vegetables, dahlias, and sunflowers. I love cooking Italian food for friends and family, gathering around the table, and hiking the acequia trails behind our farm. These everyday pleasures are a big part of why New Mexico feels like home.

This guide brings that personal perspective together with my work in real estate. Explore the Collection freely. When you’re ready to buy, sell, or relocate, I’m here to help you find the home, neighborhood, and New Mexico lifestyle that fit you.

Local perspective. Experienced guidance.

I’m a seasoned, full-time REALTOR® and Associate Broker with Coldwell Banker Legacy, with more than $50 million in career sales. My work focuses on luxury homes, relocation, and Trust & Estate Real Estate, helping buyers, sellers, trustees, and heirs navigate important transitions with clear advice and personal attention.

Having relocated from the San Francisco Bay Area myself, I understand that a successful move involves more than finding a house. It means understanding neighborhoods, discovering local resources, and finding the everyday connections that make a new place feel familiar.

For referring agents and relocation professionals, I bring that personal understanding together with experienced representation, thoughtful coordination, and consistent communication. I call this the Personal Welcome Standard: experienced guidance, a thoughtful local welcome, and attentive care for every client relationship.
