Angela moved to ABQ in Oct of 1982 from Ohio, after visiting ABQ one winter to visit relatives and loved the fact that they could ski in the Mts and return home and BBQ on the patio all in the same day!!!!!!!! She got her real estate license in early 1983, and she hasn't looked back since! Angela SOLD homes for 3 years as an agent for Century 21 and in 1986 took a position with Amrep SW-Rio Rancho Homes as their Broker Coordinator and later became Sales and Marketing Director. She was very active during that time with the AMBR and was awarded Affliate of the Year in 1996. She was also active with Home Builders Association and got her designation as a Certified New Home Specialist. When AMREP decided to stop building new homes in 1999 she took on a position with First American Title as a marketing representative and by January of 2000 was the Manager of the Rio Rancho branch.
In June of 2000, her husband Dean was offered a management position with Sandia Labs in Hawaii on the island of Kauai, for a period of 3-4 years, which was an opportunity they could not pass by! After a 4 year sabbatical from real estate and playing lots of golf and reading books by the ocean, they returned to ABQ in June of 2004. In Sept. 2004 she returned to real estate as a Business Manager for a top producer in ABQ. After two years managing, she realized it was time for her to return to the work she loved, listing and selling real estate on her own as an Associate Broker with Keller Williams Realty. "I had my first listing within 3 days and look forward to happy sales from here on out!!!!!!!!!!!"
Along with real estate she keeps busy in the lives of her daughter, two sons and two step-sons. The youngest one has recently moved on to college and the others are away from home, either happily married or happily single. Her husband Dean and her are enjoying a new lifestyle as empty-nesters. They are the proud grandparents of five beautiful children! Life is good and she looks forward to helping you with your real estate needs.
Testimonials
"We were really blown away by the excellent service we received coupled with the powerful negotiation skills that Angela has. This home selling experience was the best of all our previous experiences."
~Brian Bone
After retiring and spending a few years traveling we wanted to return to the Albuquerque area to be near our family once again. We spoke with Angela and gave her our criteria for our “perfect home”; which we didn’t think would be easy to find. The weekend we returned to Albuquerque, the first home she showed us ended up being a perfect match!"
~Larry & Connie Eyster
"Angela was so instrumental in finding the right house for our family. Her patience and the time she invested searching for our home has made us a loyal customer. She made the transaction quickly and stress free! We appreciate all she has done to make this happen."
~The Jeffrey Silva Family
"I went to a Mortgage Broker to see if I would be eligible for a home loan. Once I was approved for the loan the Mortgage Broker recommended Ms. Manning. The said she was the best they had ever worked with. 'How many times have I heard that before?'. I contacted Ms. Manning and we discussed what I was looking for. I requested a two bedroom, two full bathrooms, two car garage, wood cabinets in the kitchen, tile floor, carpeted in the living room & bedrooms, a large fenced backyard, and the house must have an alarm system. This would have made most Realtors shutter; Ms. Manning just smiled at me. Within a week we were looking at several different houses and by the end of the second week I had placed a bid on a house with everything I had asked for and more. By the end of the third week I was getting ready to move into 'MY' new home. Because of Ms. Manning outstanding negotiation abilities she managed to refund most of my 'Earnest Money' back to me. When they said Ms. Manning was the 'Best' I whole heartily believe it. I would personally recommend Ms. Manning to everyone I know who are either looking for a new home or selling their existing home."
~Robert Morrison
"I originally signed to work with Angela in Feb 2007, we worked together to list my house at the perfect price point for my area and within 7 days I had a serious offer. The transaction did not go through due to indecisons on my part. However, when I was ready to re-list I immediately called Angela. She was professional, prepared and educated on the housing market. Working with Angela helped to ease my uncertainties about the sale of my house, and now that I have relocated to a different state, I plan to think of her and trust in her referral when I am ready to buy again."
~Sarah Hoffman
"I decided to sell my home and move out of state but was worried about the current market conditions. I contacted Angela whom happens to be a long-time trusted professional and after going over a market analysis knew that I would not have a problem selling my home under her guidance and expertise. After listing my home it sold in one day! Because of Angela's commitment to providing outstanding customer service I was able to focus on relocating and not the sale of my home. Angela Manning's exceptional knowledge of the real estate market and professionalism is a rarity in the housing market today."

I am a twenty-eight year old mother of four beautiful girls. One, in which is my own and three are my fiance's. I was born in Denver, CO and raised in Albuquerque, NM.
I have been in sales since I was nineteen years old, in the automotive industry. During that time I had attended Central New Mexico Community College and was working towards my Business Degree. I had plans on becoming a Financial Planner, however, the longer I remained in Sales the more I began to love it. I enjoy being able to help others accomplish their goals and work towards their dreams. That is the very reason I set my new goal to become a New Mexico Real Estate Associate Broker.
I purchased my first home last year, 2014. This was one of my biggest accomplishments. The joy and pride I felt to be able to do this was one of the best feelings in the world, besides becoming a mother. I want to be able to help you and other clients feel that same pride and joy!!!
I am hard working and always work towards what I want. I work hard for those who want to accomplish their dreams and goals as well. I am a firm believer in making things happen and that nothing is unattainable. I am very trustworthy, loyal and reliable. Again, I appreciate you taking the time to view my profile and I look forward to helping you accomplish your goals and dreams!!

Patience is a rare quality in today’s fast paced market. However, Rebecca alongside with the NM Welcome Home team seem to manage this feat effortlessly. Rebecca has spent nearly 14 years in the mortgage industry, helping buyers recognize and achieve their dream of home ownership. Though she loves the numbers aspect, she longed to be out of the office, seeing the beautiful NM homes and interacting with her clients on a more personal level. Now she uses her knowledge of Mortgage and Real Estate to help guide her clients in all aspects of the transaction. She’s not only thriving with this change, but, says it’s the best decision she’s ever made. The luckiest people in the world are those that love what they do, and Rebecca gleams with enthusiasm and gratitude when it comes to Real Estate. When she’s not assisting buyers and sellers, Rebecca coaches High School Basketball, and runs a small photography business. Like most, she loves spending time with her family, and their two amazing pups. She also laughingly admitted that a baseball game and a cold brew makes for a nearly perfect day. When discussing her work ethic she referenced a quote to describe her daily promise to her clients, her personal relationships, and to herself: -I choose to do my job and live my life with integrity, compassion, mindful observance, and a healthy sense of humor. In both large and small matters, may I always be true to my deepest principles so that my integrity may be a gift to others. –B.A. Kipfer
