Jaqi Cornejo-Baldwin, LCSW, MBA Associate Broker | Realty One of New Mexico
Jaqi Cornejo-Baldwin was born and raised in New Mexico, and she has spent her whole working life building things for community. She taught social work for fourteen years and helped grow a high school from twelve students to six hundred, teaching young people to become entrepreneurs. She also owns two businesses, so she knows firsthand what it takes to build something from the ground up.
Licensed in 2025, Jaqi serves buyers across Albuquerque, Rio Rancho, and Los Ranchos de Albuquerque. She specializes in first-time homebuyers and business owners ready to stop renting and buy their own space. For Jaqi, ownership is how things change: a family with a deed has something no landlord can take, and a business owner with her own four walls starts building her own equity instead of someone else's. Her clients get a broker who won't rush them. She reads disclosures line by line, explains what nobody explained to her, and will tell a client when a house is wrong for them, even if it costs her the sale.
Her background as a Licensed Clinical Social Worker shapes how she works: patient, honest, and fully in her clients' corner. Jaqi is also committed to opening doors for the next generation, especially young women considering a career in real estate. As she puts it, being a good elder means the door stays open behind you.
