About Mary

Associate Broker | Realtor

Hello, and welcome to my website. I encourage you to reach out and connect with me. Whether this is your first time buying a home or you have already done this many times, I’m here to educate and walk you through each step of the home buying and selling process. I’m always honored when a client chooses me to represent them.

On every transaction, I focus on earning your trust through tenacious hard work, problem solving, and abundant communication. The more that you understand and know about the process and what is happening, the more you can be in control of how the home buying or selling process will go. 

I honed my skills of communication and educating people when I worked in the field of education for over 30 years. I believe that when a person is educated in the area they are dealing with, it helps them be more in control of what is happening. 

In real estate, I’ve experienced that home owners and buyers are not always aware or knowledgeable on how the current process works. I work hard to help ease them from being overly cautious and making the wrong decision. 

Bringing the view of educating clients in the process has garnered $5.5 million in sales in just the short 3 years that I’ve been an Associate Broker / Realtor.

I’m very passionate about helping our community. I partner with the Heroes Home Advantage organization which gives back to the local heroes of the area at the time of closing.

Allow me a chance to guide you to success in your next real estate journey!

Testimonials

Mary Cockburn Associate Broker

I had a very positive experience with Mary Cockburn as my realtor. and can confidently recommend her to anyone that is serious about finding a new home. Over the course of a year Mary was quick to look in on any options I had questions about. She worked late to get me copies of important documents, gave me important background information about the neighborhoods, and worked to get in touch with the sellers to schedule visits. She always made sure to keep me informed with updates showing a great understanding of what I was personally interested in. At no point did I feel like I was a second priority, Mary listened well and always seemed interested in finding me the perfect fit. she ultimately succeeded and I couldn't have been happier with my home or my real estate agent.

My daughter invited me to come look at a house in our rural neighborhood that she and her husband had seen online. Mary Cockburn was the realtor who showed us the house. For a number of reasons, our families decided that my husband and I would purchase the house instead. Mary was a wonderful help to all of us in figuring out how to navigate a complicated situation. She was always available for advice on details of the transaction, our daughter's family getting their house ready to sell, and options for our current home. She cheerfully addressed all the many questions that arose, and always came across as a knowledgeable friend rather than a busy professional eager to get the purchase completed. We greatly appreciated all her help, and definitely would use her services again should the need arise in the future.

Mary was absolutely wonderful to work with! From the moment we first spoke with her on the phone about a house we wanted to see, she was so helpful in telling us more about the area and the local schools and answering all of the questions we had. When we met up with her to see the house, it was like meeting up with a family member. She was so warm and welcoming. Throughout the entire process of purchasing the house, she stayed in constant communication with us and was always immediately available for us. We will absolutely recommend Mary to anyone looking to buy a home in the East Mountains/Edgewood/Moriarty area! She is knowledgeable, respectful, professional, efficient, and a great communicator! 5 stars for sure!!

It was truly a great experience working with Mary in buying our home. She took the time to listen to our wants/needs in a home and even in a hot market found us something we’re truly happy in. Her professionalism and experience eased negotiations in the contract phase with a difficult seller. Highly recommended, 5 stars!
The Lucas Family
I met Mary when she brought over a housewarming gift. She had been the sellers realtor and was my and the co-owner's neighbor. I liked her from the start. When things started to unravel in our home, I sought her help. She provided me with information that helped me understand I had options and was not stuck in my situation. The time came when I decided to leave and Mary gave me emotional and professional help finding another place of my own. She assisted me in designing an offer the buyer could not refuse. We were accepted and the rest is history. Mary said that she liked helping people with their situations, not just selling them homes. The Escrow process was seamless and I am sitting here in my beautiful home with my two horses out back. Did I mention Mary is my friend?

We started discussing with Mary the selling of our home in December, and began the process of preparing our 24 year old home for listing in March. Mary was very proactive in helping us with preparations of the property and with all the paperwork involved. The photos of our property were magnificent and really helped sell the home. We appreciated her timeliness and guidance as we moved through the mountain of paperwork required. Due to her insight we were able to sell our home as soon as it was listed. Thank you Mary!

As a first time home buyer with minimal credit background, Mary helped me navigate the processes and provided experienced recommendations with regard to mortgage and title companies. She provided valuable background information on the property and also helped me understand what it might mean for me as the buyer. My purchase was a bit unique in that some work was needed for the loan approval, but she worked diligently to make adjustments during the application process and she respected my thoughts and desires as if it was her own money. She was friendly and knowledgeable. I would highly recommend Mary as the real estate agent.

As first time home buyers we knew very little about the home buying process. With Mary helping us navigate through each task we were well informed and updated promptly every step of the way. From start to finish Mary far exceeded our expectations in a realtor with her honesty and knowledge. She truly set the bar in her field. This is the level of excellence your looking for in a realtor. We will continue to recommend Mary's home buying and selling expertise to our friends and family as a result of her workmanship.
The Mankers
From the Start of our house-buying journey we were still a bit in limbo and didn't even know where to start. We had another person helping us look for houses but Mary stayed persistent the whole time in asking what she could do to help. We decided she was the right fit for our needs! We had finally found a house after looking for a few months that we were ready to buy and we had every issue you can possibly imagine with this house thrown at us (Literally every issue) Mary never gave up. She should have an award in patience and composure lol. It felt like more of a friendship by the end than a realtor. We would recommend her 100% to anyone looking for their new home.
The Cromers
Buying a home or land is such a big life decision and Mary was there helping with whatever we needed every step of the way. We chose to purchase property and Mary was very active in helping us to close as quick as possible. If we ever decide to sell or purchase again we would definitely be going through Mary. Thank you for all your help.
The Salazar's
A year-and-a-half ago, in January 2019, while searching for a house to buy, I reached out from the Chicago area to Mary Cockburn here in the East Mountains. I started sending her lots of listings and asking lots of questions about houses for sale in this area. She went out and looked at a few and told me how they were. eventually in June we bid on a house. Sadly, we got outbid on that one so we immediately bid on another one and we packed up and headed here from Chicago in hopes of moving into that house end of July. Again, sadly that one had a lien on it and we could not purchase it so we bid on another house. Sadly, that one needed too many repairs to get a loan. Mary was diligent and patient during that time. Since winter was coming and we had no permanent residence we decided to put our house hunting on hold for a few months and we rented A home in the east Mountains. Mary kept in touch with me till we were ready to start searching again. in April of 2020 we started the search again. Mary was so positive and energetic which I was grateful for as I had many misgivings from our previous experience house-hunting. We bid on our fourth house in Los Lunas and then during the inspections and appraisals found out that it wasn't worth it and we couldn't get a loan due to it being damaged too much as well. Again, I was getting discouraged but Mary kept positive and kept searching for us and finally lo and behold we bid on a house in Moriarty and by golly we actually closed on it June 17th! I am grateful to Mary's perseverance and her energy especially at times when I had no energy to continue searching for a home. I don't know that Mary believed me back in January 2019 that I was going to move here but she did her job very well even with any doubt she may have had. Thank you for helping us get our home!

Mary is a fantastic realtor, and I can't recommend her enough. My husband and I decided to buy our first home just a few short months before the birth of our first child. Mary listened to all of our needs and provided us with dedicated service to find a perfect home for us with enough time to prepare for the baby. As first-time home buyers, we were new to the entire process, but Mary walked us patiently through it all. She explained everything, connected us with every resource that we needed, and turned what could have been a grueling process into a positive one. We couldn't have asked for a better realtor to help make our home-buying experience wonderful.

Moving to a new area is always difficult and we were lucky to have stumbled upon Mary’s contact information during an internet search. From the onset, Mary was patient, informative and kind. She went out of her way to do walkthroughs over the internet anytime we asked her too! She made the home-buying experience less painful than it potentially could have been. As a family, we are grateful that we had her play such a key role in our move to the East Mountain area.
The Shelby's
Mary was so helpful in the process of finding a home for my wife and I. She helped throughout the process of paperwork, home searching, and even met us on weekends for our convenience. Mary is truly a professional and someone we were proud to have on board throughout the whole experience of finding our home. Thank you, Mary for your diligence and understanding. My wife and I would definitely recommend Mary for finding or selling their home.

Mary Cockburn helped us purchase a home in 2019. Dealing with Mary was a joy and she made the process effortless for us. She was on time to every appointment and was always prepared with whatever documentation or information was necessary. Mary is knowledgeable about New Mexico real estate and was always able to answer our questions. We chose Mary as our realtor because she participated in the Heroes Home Advantage program, which, since I am a teacher, allowed us a rebate at closing. Mary was always personable, professional, and responsible. We had a great home-buying experience because of Mary. I have dealt with other realtors in my life and have never had such a smooth experience. I wholeheartedly recommend Mary Cockburn, and I know that next time we have a real estate need, we will be calling her again.

After renting apartments for 30 years, I was introduced to Mary through a Mortgage Lender. I was clueless about the entire process, but Mary worked with me patiently, and taught me all of the ins and outs of the home buying process.
Daniel
I have known Mary for a very long time and I trust her completely. My husband and I wanted to buy some property near our home but we had a lot of unknowns starting out about what exactly would work for our needs. I called Mary as a friend to get her help. She was amazing. Incredibly patient. Very knowledgeable, especially about property in the east mountains which is pretty different than anywhere we have ever lived. What we needed and wanted gradually evolved as we looked and looked and looked. Mary was SO patient and understanding and put me at ease that I was not annoying her or driving her crazy with the changes! In the end, Mary helped us find the perfect place for our needs and got us through the nail-biting negotiations. This is where things got difficult for me because after finding the perfect place, I was afraid we weren't going to get it! But, Mary remained calm throughout, advised us beautifully and we ended up extremely happy and satisfied with the end result. I would recommend Mary to anyone who needs a good realtor. Thank you, Mary! ML, Patti Bach

Thank you so much for everything! Mary helped us sell our home and find a new home to purchase. She was very efficient in responding to our needs. She is very knowledgeable in getting a home staged for selling, and our house sold quickly. She was also very patient when helping us find a house that fit all our needs.
