Looking for a Loan to buy your new Home or Farm in the Palm Springs Valley?

La Quinta home buyers

La Quinta home buyers

Loans are tougher to qualify for today-that’s a fact.  But compared to what??  If you’re looking for a home in La Quinta or one of the other Palm Springs Valley cities, do NOT despair.  Requirements are tighter than they were during the craziness of the “100%, no doc Loan days in 2004-2006”, but that’s a GOOD thing!  We all know how that turned out.

Had a Foreclosure or Short sale?  It may not be as tough as you imagine to get another Loan, and purchase a property.  Down Payment Resource (DPR), is looking to educate potential buyers about hard to find financial resources and programs that may be available to them.  DPR allows prospective buyers to mine the company’s national database of 2,300 different programs in their local areas to find different loan sources. There could be grants, federal housing programs, delayed repayment loans, Interest free loans and more.

Foreclosures and Short Sales in your background does not necessarily mean there are no loans available to you.  If you have re-established yourself, you may qualify for one of these programs.

If you are thinking of buying or selling here in the Palm Springs Valley, it could be a great time to look into your options!

Custom home on 5 acres

Custom home on 5 acres

I had the privilege of representing BOTH the Seller on this tranquil Equestrian Estate in Vista Santa Rosa, California, and also the Buyers.  Located  right by the border of La Quinta, this particular area is fast becoming known as “The Rodeo Drive of Horse Property!”  82480 Avenue 54 is fondly known as THE MANSION ON 54TH.  Originally designed and built by Tennis Legend, Vic Braden, this 5 acre Estate rests behind entry gates, that open to a private road.  The road circles by the Pond in the front of the main house, which is where the Canal water is held before it’s used for irrigation.

The estate is zoned for horses, but Mr. Braden chose to use it as his desert Tennis Retreat. The Tennis court has since been covered up as the current owner has chosen to surround the elevated home site with lush grass, citrus trees, and desert flora.  The property is completely fenced, and has a back up source of water in it’s private well.

I had this amazing property listed for only 7 days before I brought the Seller the Perfect Buyers, and we opened Escrow.  As I told this seller when I took this listing..I have BUYERS for specific Equestrian properties, and also Vacant Land.  If you are looking to buy or sell your Equestrian property, vacant land, investment land, or farm land, give me a call.  Consultations are FREE, and no pressure.  Sometimes, we just want to see what our property is worth..760-285-3578
