Dear Future Team Gaffney Clients,…read more Simply put, you cannot partner with a better real estate team. We are extremely thankful to have found Kurt and Sylvia Gaffney to partner with to buy our first home in the Coachella Valley area. We were introduced to Team Gaffney through my father, who is a realtor himself in central Ohio. We immediately knew Kurt and Sylvia were the right fit for us. Kurt and Sylvia are very professional yet truly personal and friendly at the same time. We relied on their expertise extensively throughout the entire process since we were first-time home buyers. They went to bat for us many times as we were buying from a difficult seller. We can't thank them enough for all the hours we spent strategizing with them and seeking their counsel. We could see from the start that they had our best interest in mind. And not only will they be our realtor partners as we continue to build our real estate portfolio, but they are also our newest friends in the Coachella Valley area. Thank you Kurt and Sylvia for all you gave during the buying process and all you continue to give to us since we closed! Gratefully David and Silvana

Once my wife and I decided that La Quinta was going to become our retirement home, we knew we'd…read moreneed an experienced and qualified realtor to guide us through the numerous options available in the Valley. I am extremely pleased to have chosen the Brandt Group to lead and complete our search for the perfect home and I am happy to say that from my perspective, all their 5 star reviews are legit and well earned. I initially sent through a generic contact request via their Contact Us page and received a reply within a couple hours from Jeff & Linda letting me know they'd love to help us with our relocation (from Seattle) and to let me know that their group's primary buyer's agent (and the person who knew the most about everything for sale in the Valley) was son Jonathan. I was told to expect to hear from him the following day, which I did. We had several phone calls discussing our needs and desires and then I began receiving emails identifying various possibilities in and around our target parameters. These auto-generated emails were the same thing I had already been pulling down from Redfin and Zillow and very quickly, we were able to narrow the parameters down to several options we wanted to see in person. We informed Jonathan of when we'd be in town and he set up a tour of 6-8 different homes in 5-6 different country clubs. As we toured each development and each home, he quickly got a feel for exactly what we were looking for and during that first trip, we decided we wanted to move to the Rancho La Quinta CC. From that point onward for the next couple weeks, Jonathan kept us up to speed with RLQ options that were good targets and when he learned there was a new listing coming that he felt was right for us, he arranged with the selling agent to get early access and we did a FaceTime walk-through. As that option looked like a good possibility and at that time, there were several others that were good options too, I scheduled another trip to the desert. Jonathan picked me up at PSP and as Jeff had some spare time, he met us at the first showing and the three of us spent the day touring four homes and having lunch at the RLQ clubhouse. Spending the day at RLQ further solidified my desire to limit our choices to that development. During lunch, we agreed the homes we'd seen that day were not exactly what I was looking for and that we'd keep looking. I then asked if we could go take another look at one of the homes we'd seen on our first visit. I wanted to do that because when we toured it originally, my wife and I agreed it was the perfect home, but priced out of our range. I wanted to take another look to see if it still seemed to be perfect and to consider upping our price range. Jonathan got ahold of the selling agent and they agreed to meet us at the home. We walked through the home and it was as I remembered. I just wasn't sure about the price. Jeff agreed it seemed a bit high and at that point, I asked him to let the selling agent know we loved the home and to let us know when they were ready to get serious about the price. Fast forward two weeks . . . a fair price was negotiated, the seller desired a quick closing due to some family commitments, and we closed on the home in under 14 days from contract acceptance. Through it all, Jeff and Jonathan were calm, professional, down to earth, and extremely responsive and easy to communicate with. They provided an out-of-towner with the insight and information garnered through their 25+ years in the Valley where in fact, Jonathan grew up. They filled me in on the windy vs. calm areas; morning sun vs. afternoon sun; the various mountain views; the expensive power company areas vs. the reasonable power company areas; etc. It was clear they understood and desired to build a relationship and a friendship along with their desire to close on a home. They achieved in all aspects of our relationship. As an out-of-town buyer who was not able to move in at close, they have been invaluable in stopping by the home to check in. When the seller left, they had left 12-15 pieces of furniture in the home due to a misunderstanding with their agent. Once we learned this, Jeff and Jonathan arranged to have the remaining personal property removed and donated. The Brandt Group, and especially what I refer to as the J&J Team exceeded all hopes and expectations and I am happy to call them my first friends in the Valley. I am happy to write this letter with the hope others will believe that all the 5 star reviews are truly legit and well earned.

Hayes Property served as my property management company for the last 7 years for a rental home I…read moreowned in Palm Desert. I first interviewed Josh Hayes as a potential property manager when the company I was using at the time, began to do nothing more but take calls from my tenants and then pass the problem onto me rather than handling it themselves, which is what I thought I was paying them for. I was very impressed with Josh when I interviewed him and hired him on the spot to take over management of the property, and it could not have been a better decision to make. He is very knowledgeable and competent about the rental real estate market and once a tenant was in place his wife Mai always did an outstanding job of addressing maintenance issues or tenant concerns while only reaching out to me when owner input was absolutely necessary which made the rental property ownership experience much better. They always found tenants for me quickly, and efficiently, in a very professional manner and who were responsible and who paid regularly. Never had a tenant miss a payment! I would highly recommend Hayes Realty for property management! When I decided to sell the property earlier this year, they stepped up to the plate and offered to list it for me, and it was a perfect, smooth, and worry free experience all the way through. I'm use to real estate transactions and escrows being a very stressful and uncertain time and they could not have been more professional and efficient in handling the transaction and getting it closed on time with very little fuss or stress.
