The free map to start with
Go first to the NM Office of the State Engineer County Parcels 2025 layer in ArcGIS Map Viewer; it maps each tax parcel around Melrose and Texico. If you're looking near Melrose, put in a street address, an owner's name or a parcel number, and the matching parcel lights up. In and around Grady, a pop-up or side panel usually lists the owner of record, acreage on the tax roll, a parcel ID and sometimes recent sales.
The paper trail behind a parcel
