Palm Springs real estate, handled properly

How we work

Every property gets the same treatment: the documents first, the story second. Before price comes up, Dan reads the title, the disclosures, the land ownership and anything recorded against the parcel, and walks you through what is actually there.

You get direct access. The person who previews the house, reads the file and sits across from the other agent is the person who answers your call.

Nothing here is a promise about outcomes. Markets move. What is promised is preparation, straight answers, and a written explanation for every recommendation.

What to check before you write an offer

Land ownership first. Some desert properties sit on land the owner holds outright and some on land that is leased. The terms differ property by property, and they change how a lender looks at the file, so the only reliable answer comes from that property's own documents.

Then the envelope: roof, glazing, mechanical systems and anything that has been added to the original footprint. Desert sun is hard on a building, and permits tell you whether the work was done properly.

Then the paperwork around the house: what is recorded, what is disclosed, and what any governing association actually controls. Ask for the documents and read them before you fall in love.

Buying from outside the United States

Plenty of desert buyers are not in the country when they start looking. Dan can preview properties, send walkthrough video of the specific rooms you ask about, and coordinate with your attorney, lender and tax advisor.

What does and does not require you to be physically present depends on your lender and the escrow company, so that gets confirmed in writing early rather than assumed.
