Palm Desert

Second homes, golf and country club communities, and El Paseo's shops and dining in the heart of the Coachella Valley. Brooks Bailey and his team help buyers and sellers across Palm Desert and the desert cities.

Living in Palm Desert, CA

Palm Desert sits in the center of the Coachella Valley, known for golf and country club communities, the shops and restaurants of El Paseo, and a season that runs roughly October through April. Many buyers here also own on the coast, so working with one team across both markets saves time. Brooks Bailey and his team, part of SERHANT., help buyers and sellers across Palm Desert, Rancho Mirage and the desert cities.

Areas buyers look at

  • El Paseo and central Palm Desert: walkable streets near shopping, dining and galleries.
  • Country club communities: golf, tennis and pickleball, many with HOA amenities.
  • New construction: new homes from Palm Desert to Rancho Mirage.

Things to do

  • The Living Desert Zoo and Gardens.
  • Palm Desert Civic Center Park.
  • Hiking in the Santa Rosa and San Jacinto Mountains National Monument.
  • The McCallum Theatre for performances.
  • Nearby: the BNP Paribas Open in Indian Wells and Coachella Valley Firebirds hockey at Acrisure Arena.

Schools and colleges

Public schools are served by Desert Sands Unified School District, with College of the Desert and Cal State San Bernardino's Palm Desert campus in town. Check school boundaries for any specific address with the district.

Buying or selling in Palm Desert

Have HOA and club membership details ready, and time listings to the fall-to-spring season when most buyers are in the valley.
