Sam Castello

I love work that is complex and engaging, to use my brain helping people. I see my job as relationship building and an extension of community building. I was attracted to Silver City because people in the community truly care about each other. I want to exemplify that in transactions I handle so that people in this small town can have lives that are comfortable and meaningful.

I focus on moving at my clients' pace so that I can really understand what they want. I don’t start making a list of houses to show them until I’ve carefully listened to them and understand their agenda. I approach real estate as an opportunity to help people, to help them sell a home when they need to, to help them find just the right home, to help them get rooted here and become part of the community.

I moved to Silver City to enjoy the access to the wilderness and to be closer to nature. I am an avid trail runner and backpacker. I love finding new trails to explore and revisiting old favorites. You can catch me playing pick-up soccer games during the week and watching my son play basketball on the weekends. I also organize and produce a spoken word show on a bi-monthly basis. I love spending time with my family here in Silver City and Grant County.

My work in the fields of both profit and non-profit has taught me that it’s super cool to help people, and I thrive on transactions where people feel they are treated fairly and respectfully and are happy with the outcome. With every successful transaction I help people meet their goals, and I appreciate sharing the experience.

Highlights from treasured clients:

"Sam assisted me with both buying and selling my home. He is seasoned and very knowledgeable in real estate. He was efficient with the timelines that come along with buying and selling a home and quick to text or call with any upcoming deadlines. He is personable and has a good sense of humor. I highly recommend Sam as your next real estate broker!"

"Mr. Sam is the best! He really listens to understand what you are looking for. His attention to detail is amazing, he makes sure nothing falls through the cracks. We wouldn't trust anyone else to shepherd us through the complicated process of buying or selling a home especially in Silver City's complex market."

"After losing our house in the Paradise Camp Fire my wife and I were looking for a new 'forever home'. We were also fairly particular in what we wanted in a house. Sam has been a godsend. He patiently worked with us and found us some great candidates. He negotiated on our behalf, helped resolve any issues, and facilitated a smooth sale. We now have a beautiful home with a lovely view. He has continued help us even after the sale has closed. I highly recommend Sam to anyone looking for a home in Grant County."
