I know I wrote my first listing agreement for this house over a decade ago.  And I finally sold it last week. I tried to access my old forms to determine the first time I listed it, and it was with my very first broker.  So it could have been 12 years ago.  It sits across the fairway from our home.. I can see it from here. Right now.  The elderly owner liked and trusted me, we both belong to La Quinta Country Club and occasionally I would be paired against her for gin in the ladies card room.  She no longer played golf and lived in KC, CO, and in the winter, La Quinta.  She was very proud of her home and would decide it was time to sell. She just wasn't using it enough and said many had approached her admiring the views of both the 7th and 8th fairways, mountains, and the lake.  They al... 09/08/2022

Vacation Rental Policy at PGA WestOne of the most frequently asked questions regarding PGA West real estate is whether the short term rental policy that is now in place will continue in the future.  Currently you are able to lease out your PGA West home for less than 30 day intervals, weekly, or even nightly.  Many investors have purchased in PGA West for the sole purpose of taking advantage of their short term vacation rental policy. This policy is controversial and rumors of an upcoming vote  and possible changes have the community buzzing. At a California Lifestyle Realty meeting with PGA West membership this morning, membership confirmed that a vote was coming. Majority will decide whether the vacation rental property will remain in place or be restricted to a 30 day minimum.  We we... 10/28/2020

Why Now is the Time to List your La Quinta Home   We have had a crazy year so far, and the real estate market is no different. It has been an unusually active spring and summer despite the hot temperatures and the absence of most home owners in the off season.  So why would now be the best time to list your home? Here are a few reasons:1.  HIGH DEMAND:  Californians are tired of staying home. They do not want to get on a plane.  The desert makes perfect sense for a weekend getaway, second home, investment property, or part-time residence.  LA and beach people can drive here in a few hours and have a complete change of scenery.  We have mountain views, golf courses, tennis, sunny skies, and fresh air... plus a lot fewer people.  Industry experts report that homebuying demand is up by 25%... 09/13/2020

La Quinta Real Estate Market May 2020La Quinta real estate including the entire Coachella valley and Palm Springs area is a microclimate unlike other California real estate markets.  We are unique in the fact that a high percentage of the real estate are second homes.  We are also seasonal and many desert dwellers leave for the permanent residence in the summer.  Because of this, our market is unique to our valley.  Our busy season runs from November-April- that is when the most people are here enjoying our sunny weather, golf, mountains, hiking, swiming, dining, and desert air.Prior to the Corona virus- we had a very strong and active season going in 2019-20.  Prices were on a slow, steady over the last few years.  Inventory was fairly low, especially in my La Quinta Country Club neigh... 05/01/2020
