Market Insights from Laurie McLennan
"2025 closed on a high note for luxury real estate in La Quinta and Palm Desert," said Laurie McLennan. "Today's buyers are prioritizing privacy, architectural quality, and homes that are impeccably maintained. They're willing to pay a premium for properties that offer both design excellence and the effortless lifestyle our desert communities provide."
In Q4 2025, the Coachella Valley's luxury segment experienced:
- 11% year-over-year increase in multimillion-dollar transactions
- 9% decrease in active luxury inventory, creating competitive conditions
- Higher demand from out-of-state buyers, particularly from Texas, Colorado, New York, New Jersey, Florida and Minnesota.
- Increased interest in modern architecture and golf estates, especially properties with strong indoor–outdoor living features and southern views.
"These indicators highlight sustained momentum in the luxury segment," McLennan added. "Early 2026 is already bringing higher buyer engagement, elevated showing activity in premium communities, and a noticeable increase in interest from seasonal, relocation, and investment buyers. The Coachella Valley is positioned for another robust year of luxury real estate demand."
