Wide Open Spaces in the desert

Wide Open Spaces in the desert

Are Chinese Investors headed our way???  It would seem that we are on their radar.  Chinese cash is flooding American Real Estate markets.  I have many clients from Vancouver, B.C., and have been hearing of the influx of big money into Canada for the past several years.  The Coastal cities, San Francisco, and New York and Manhattan of course, have seen their share of mega dollars from the Chinese as well.  Texas appears to be a new frontier, according to some because of it’s wide open spaces.  Hmmm…is desert land in our Coachella Valley on the Chinese radar, asks Kim Kelly, local Realtor specializing in Land and Equestrian properties in the Coachella Valley.

Polo in the Coachella Valley; What’s the BIG deal?

International field at Eldorado Polo Club, Indio

International field at Eldorado Polo Club, Indio

Polo in the Coachella Valley; What’s the BIG deal?  When I came to the desert over 30 years ago, I was a groom, hoping to one day be able to play polo professionally.  I was overwhelmed by the scope of the Eldorado Polo Club at that time.  It seemed to my eyes, that the fields went on and on, horses were everywhere, and Polo was the Valley’s Sport!  What a dummy.  In my small world of Polo and horses, EVERYONE knew about the club.  In reality, when I meet with clients to show them property 30 years later, it is the rare individual that knows about our amazing East Valley horse Industry, and how it contributes to our Coachella Valley economy.
