Originally from Michigan, I moved out west at 18 years old to Boulder, CO for school. Once I moved back home after getting home-sick I began a journey of finding my way out west again.. starting in Utah and finding my way to Taos. I've been in Taos for 10 years and it's become my home. There's no place like the Land of Enchantment.. or 'entrapment' as New Mexicans say... since most people who move to New Mexico never leave!
Surrounded by some of the realest people and the most beautiful scenery, I couldn't bring myself to leave Taos even though things were in limbo during my first year here. One of my best friends landed me my dream job at a ski shop at 21 years old and the rest is history.
In the 10 years I've been in Taos I've gotten two degrees, my real estate license, opened my own business and qualify to test for my CPA license with my Business Degree concentrated in Accounting.
I'll be 32 this year and going on five years with my real estate license and one year with my Qualifying Broker's license (#REC-2024-0220). Other than selling houses, I have a mini-farm and enjoy crafting/building and woodworking. I have a beautiful family with my husband, VJ Esquibel, and our four amazing daughters: Nieves, Lila, Rosalia, and Selena.
In my spare time, you can catch me in the mountains or by the river, or just relaxing watching TV.
Real estate is a demanding profession and requires me to work a lot of hours outside of a normal work week. If you don't hear back from me within 24 hours, I'm recuperating after a long day or long work week. I work 24/7 for clients that I'm under contract with and normally take calls from 8am MST to around 6/7pm MST everyday of the week.
My work has slowed down in the last year due to having my fourth child so my sales/transactions reflect that.
*Please note: transactions that took place outside of Taos MLS do not show up on my profile. I average 1 sale per year outside of Taos MLS.*

What clients say about this agent....
We were very lucky to have Josephine guide us through our recent home purchase. We worked with her over 8 months to find the home that was right for us. Throughout this time, Josephine used her extensive knowledge of the Taos area, which helped us locate houses we would be interested in. When we made an offer on a house, we were in an unfortunate bidding war with another buyer. This is a very stressful process and Josephine guided us the entire way. She is a highly motivated individual, responded immediately to all our of inquiries and stayed organized throughout the purchase process. We are incredibly happy with the home we purchase and would recommend Josephine to potential buyers in the Taos area.
Josephine did an outstanding job representing us in both a sale and a purchase transaction. She kept us well informed and gave valuable insights. When inspection issues arose, she pursued the right strategy.
Josephine was a pleasure to work with and she made the entire process a much easier experience. She has a great knowledge of the local real estate market, is trustworthy, and goes the extra mile every step of the way. Would highly recommend!
My experience purchasing a house through Josephine was stellar. It was a challenging time to purchase due to very long closings that were outside of our control and she did everything possible to expedite the process, ensured I was well informed at all times, gave knowledgeable advice and went above and beyond to ensure I was happy with my new home! Josephine has an extensive network in the area and provided fantastic recommendations, connected me with services and made sure I had everything I needed. I highly recommend Josephine. She is truly a pleasure!
I have had personal experience with different agents over the past 40 years in both sales and acquisition of properties, Josephine is by far the best I have worked with and I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for help in buying or selling a home.
Josephine brought me buyers immediately and we had a contract within 24hrs. She was always responsive when I called or texted. She was diligent in getting a title search during the CV lockdown of our county courthouse and overwhelming real estate needs. I would recommend Josephine for your real estate needs.
Wonderful realtor! I highly recommend using Josephine. She walked us through each step, was immediately responsive to our questions, and provided excellent information for us to make the best choice in our purchase. If we buy any more property we will definitely be using Josephine to help us!
