What's Hot This Summer

By

Welcome to Summer time, if visions of sandy beaches and cool breezes come to mind then you don’t live in the Coachella Valley.   As you may know it gets a little HOT here in the summer.  The good news is there are plenty of fun summer events to distract you  on those days when it is just inhumane to be outside.  Here are some of my HOT picks for Summer Fun in the Desert!
  


Palm Springs Restaurant Week   June 2nd -11th
This is by far one of my favorite events in the summer… The selection of restaurants is incredible and the menus offered by the participating restaurants is wonderful.  This is not an early Bird Special this is truly these restaurants showing off their best fare!  So, take a few minutes and check out the link many of your favorite restaurants are probably already featured and make your reservations ASAP many of these resultants book up fast.



Splash House June 9th -11th, The Fifth Year! 

Another fun time at a mini Coachella Event!  Tickets are reasonably priced for the overall entertainment value.  Venues include The Saguaro Palm Springs, Riviera Palm Springs, and Renaissance Palm Springs.  Each hotel hosts a poolside stage programmed with festival artists.  Shuttles run non-stop between the venues so you can hop to another pool at any time.  Must be 21


The Palm Springs International ShortFest  June 20-26 
This is also a great event and a great place to take advantage of FREE airconditionig.  I have been every year and have really enjoyed the films and some of the panel discussions.  It is wonderful how supportive Palm Springs has been to the film industry and it has paid off in bringing tax dollars to our community.  Come out and cool off at some of these great films.   The festival also includes the ShortFest Forum, a series of panels, master classes and roundtable discussions designed to provide emerging filmmakers with both the knowledge and the networking opportunities to further their careers in the film industry.

Low Inventory, Rising Tides

By
Now if you have been paying attention to the Coachella Valley something peculiar has been happening, it is explainable but it exemplifies a larger problem in our current real estate market. Today there are approximately 650 active properties on the market as of February 2022. Around this same time last year, there were over 2,000 active properties on the market. Now to make it clear the typical  inventory  of the Coachella Valley is usually somewhere between 4-5,000 units. Currently this is a clear identifier demand is extremely high, but how long can that last as supply remains so  low . As interest rates continue to rise there is going to be a decrease in buyer demand, and we can already see that as the average days on market increases. This past year we saw houses being sold within hours of being posted on the MLS, multiple bids above asking price, and the sheer force of movement that has filled up the valley with transplants and former city-sl...

How to Buy a Home like an Investor!

By
The purchase of a home is for most people the largest investment they will make in their lifetime! Your home is both an investment and a place to live.  For the past decade I have worked with a lot of investors and the same principals that make my investors rich, apply to any real estate purchase. Here are some real estate buying tips I learned from the investors I've worked with! First off, it is all about the numbers!  Make sure the numbers work up front, define and estimate  if there is money to be made and upside in the resale due to market, trends, or added value… Basically, if the numbers don't add up from the beginning then don't make the deal. Hoping that the market improves isn't a tactical game plan, you need to back up your predictions with cold hard facts and proven economic growth patterns.  This is where you need the help of a trusted real estate advisor that understands the local market.  Secondly, make your mone...

Want to go Surfing in the Desert?

Talus is a NEW residential Development that you might want to know more about because this project is changing the face of property development for the Coachella Valley! For those of you that have recently driven on Avenue 52 or Jefferson on their way to PGA, Tradition or Griffin Ranch, you may have noticed a new sign on the way that reads "Talus." You might be asking yourself what is Talus? Or maybe you already googled it, or heard some people at the office or the gym talking about it. But I want to discuss the implications of this enterprising project for the surrounding neighborhood, and I think we should go over it together. Talus is a brand new resort experience developing in our backyard! This project includes hotels, The Montage and Pendry, two notable luxury brands that will be hosting the resort-styled hotels, private branded residences, a new restaurant, spa facility, conference center, club house, and more! The first part of the project should be finished by mid 20...
