Phil both rented me a studio for a year and then sold my gorgeous home for me! He is a consummate professional and just plain takes care of things.. He got me over top dollar for my home and from listing to moving out, it was 30 days! Phil is a real estate machine. You want Phil on your side. I've purchased, sold and leased a lot of property, both commercial and personal over the years. I'm really happy I found Phil. He is one of my favorite brokers I've ever worked with!

Denise DeValle with Varela Real Estate helped us find the perfect home in a perfect location. She shared with us that her family has been in Santa Fe for many generations and told us some wonderful stories! We enjoyed working with Denise very much and the office staff was always helpful and seemed to answer the phone and return calls in a very timely manner. Our new home is unbelievable - Thank You Denise!

Fantastic Company!
We had been working to purchase a home in the Santa Fe area for weeks with little help from others. We set an appointment with Phillip. He spent the time to listen to our needs and go through all of the houses that were available. The staff at the office was also very inviting and helpful. We found the home that we didn’t think was out there. Phillip guided us through inspections and closing. It seemed he had the answers to any questions we had. He was always very professional and we are very happy with our experience and our new home!! Phillip was knowledgeable, efficient, and sensitive to our needs! Next time we buy or sell we are coming back to Varela Real Estate.

Varela Real Estate is a wonderful real estate group to work with! We absolutely LOVED working with Philip! You will not find a more patient, dedicated, and professional agent. He is extremely mindful of your specifications and quickly grasps what his clients are looking for during the home search process. Philip is very accessible, experienced and knowledgeable - all key elements that were especially important to first-time homeowners like ourselves.

Phil and the Varela team are absolutely fantastic! We have bought two homes with them. One in 2011 and one in 2017. Their level of responsiveness and knowledge is exceptional. They really care about you as a client and they show a special knowledge of the market and the Santa Fe community. We are really happy that we have chosen to work with them. I strongly recommend Varela to all my friends and will continue to use them in the future. We are now listing my parent's home with them and are happy to be working with them again.

Phil is a great agent and wonderful to work with. He was able to sell our home for a much better price than I had hoped. We interviewed 4 real estate agents and Phil came highly recommended. He listens, returns calls promptly and gave us the extra attention and care we felt we needed during the process. Very much a class act with a great company! I highly recommend Phil and hope to work with him again in the future.

Phillip Varela helped my parents sell their home and find me a place for rent. We could not have asked for a better experience. The process was very smooth. We felt supported throughout the entire process and he always worked with our best interest in mind. He is a true professional who loves what he does and he is incredibly knowledgeable about every aspect of real estate. This has been the best experience I have ever had with a real estate agent!

Phillip Varela worked with us through the sale of our condo and the purchase of our new home. I have nothing but fantastic things to say about Phillip. He was quick to respond at all times and worked with us to get the best price for our place and in an exceptionally quick manner. He helped us work through the mysteries of the house selling and buying process. And he also had great recommendations whenever we needed them for a lawyer or inspector

Denise was super helpful always in answering our questions.
- Paul R
Phillip is an outstanding realtor and he really cares about his clients. Purchasing a new house should be a happy and rewarding experience, and Phil made the process easy and stress free. I have never purchased a home before and the experience with Varela Real estate was so great. I worked with other realtors before Phil and was very frustrated. Phil listened to my needs, got me back on track and I couldn’t be any happier with my first home.
