Everyone deserves a home to love ❤️
I blog about life in the Palm Springs area. Occasionally, I'll throw in something related to real estate (sections in the above menu are focused exclusively on real estate), but on this page it's all about local restaurants, events, people and things I appreciate, and some personal stuff related to home, garden, food, and pets (I promise not too much personal stuff).

I saw an incredible performance by the “Modern Men” last evening at the Palm Springs Cultural Center. ,I can’t describe the joy that comes from 120+ smiling, dancing, and singing faces full of happiness and sharing the 70s through music. Shout out to tenor RC, my friend since the 70s 😉 There’s always something to do in Palm Springs!
😃
I represented the sellers on this property, and they were awesome enough to leave this review of my performance on Zillow. I humbly thank S&E. 😃

You’ll know the minute you arrive in the large and busy dining room, Palmina by Puglia is the right place for Italian food.
It's Always About The Contract
The best way to avoid conflict over what may or may not be personal property, and whether or not it conveys with the sale of the property, is to identify in writing exactly what you want in the purchase agreement.

We live in a dynamic market with lots of fast moving parts. I'm fortunate to have a network of experts willing to help me apply their knowledge to my everyday business. Sean Teague of Movement Mortgage is one of those experts.

The word "ragù" comes from the French word "ragoût", but it's really not all that fancy.

The Restaurant at the Palm Springs Surf Club is a bit hard to find but turns out it’s hidden in plain sight!
Are Open Houses the New Oldsmobile?
It’s not your father’s Oldsmobile anymore, open houses were created by Realtors at a time when it was one of the few ways potential buyers could preview a home.

I barely had the sign up before I placed the "In Escrow" rider on the frame.
