Water Management Solutions

Water Management Solutions is the exclusive distributer of the entire line of innovative and patented Wellmanager™ and ConstaBoost™ “appliances” that can solve a variety of water issues.  From poor water wells or under-performing community water systems, to odor removal, storage issues, low pressure and low volume, WMS can provide a solution that is cost effective and proven.  These systems have enormous versatility, guaranteed results and fit in almost any existing well house, pump room or even an existing closet!  Until now, the options were pretty much limited to drilling a new well, adding a massive storage tank or living with the problem!


Wellmanager™ systems have helped a number of local owners take very low yielding wells and created a system that delivers ample water for their family’s needs WITHOUT drilling a new well!  ConstaBoost™ systems have given others who have bought into expensive, yet low pressure community water systems, go from unacceptable pressure and volume to city water system performance.  WMS can help you get deals get done where water has become an issue.

The new WMS website will be launching soon with a lot of great content and solutions.  But until then, If you have a deal that is in trouble because of water issues or solve a problem before you get to the inspection phase, WMS has a solution on the shelf or they can custom design a solution for your needs.  Please visit the WMS Facebook page and “like” it for future updates and an invitation to the new website once it gets completed.


If you have a need or just a question you can reach the WMS office at 505.750.9500 or you can call Tom Schmidt at 505.750.9500 or 505.238.0700.

Water Related Closing Issues

As many of you already know, Homes In Transition was created over 5 years ago to help Brokers with the chores created by their vacant listings and to enhance the marketability of those listings.  The idea of furnishing a home to help it sell has been around for a long time and by the number of calls we get for our services, the idea seems to be alive and well! 

With the growing drought, there has been a large increase in water related closing failures.  Our numbers would indicate that 4 in ten deals fall apart due to water related issues in transactions where the home was on a well or other non-city supplied water system.  Some of you have sold houses and now have unhappy clients because the water system had failed or diminished to a point where they are not satisfied!  We have seen some eat the cost of drilling wells only to come up dry – AGAIN!  And as long as we don’t see massive amounts of rain and snow, the drought from the last 10 years is only going to make matters worse.

As some of you know, we have created another company to bring viable, affordable solutions to these water issues many of you face when selling a home that has a marginal or poor quality well, or poor performing community water system.  That company is Water Management Solutions.

Next week we will learn more about Water Management Solutions.
