I used Julie, an agent I had never met, to buy my home sight unseen. And if I had to do it again, I wouldn't change a thing! As a remote buyer, she quickly understood my lifestyle, identified more home options than I expected, and got me a home under my budget with a quick close.

I was living in the Bay Area and had only been to the desert twice in my lifetime but loved the lifestyle (the arid weather, equestrian sports, hiking, stunning mountains, cost of living...) and the La Quinta/Indio location. She took my wish list and with only a couple phone call discussions and a video walk through, I fell in love with two homes; I closed escrow and was living in my home in less than a month. Also, if you want to make minor (or major) repairs, Julie has a great support team who've been with her for 10+ years plus everyone knows and loves her family. Bonus: my horse is also living his best life at her family's beautiful La Quinta ranch only short bike ride away! If the day comes I and I decide to sell my home, or if I buy another home, Julie will be my agent. She does not disappoint!

We were first time home buyers so we really had no idea where to start. We moved to the desert from Los Angeles when we were expecting another baby and knew we needed the extra space and a yard which is not easily available in LA. Thankfully with Julie's expertise and local knowledge we felt at ease. She sent us a lot of options and gave us advice on properties and price points to make sure we were getting the biggest bang for our buck. Once we made an offer Julie stayed on top of the seller/other realtor to ensure all negotiations were running smoothly, she stayed in constant contact with us so we knew we were in good hands. We're hoping this is our forever home but we know that if we were to look for another house Julie would be the first person we'd reach out to!
