Client Testimonials
Being a Realtor in Chicago and having worked with many realtors over the years, none of them can compare to Real Estate Rancho Mirage’s team. I loved that they are local and live where we wanted to purchase. Combined with years of experience, it gives them a level of expertise that is unparalleled. Buying a home, especially in a different state can be a daunting process, but they helped us navigate the market with undying optimism and handled the negotiation and purchase of our home with ease. They invest in their clients and listen to them, they were not just trying to make a deal. This summer we bought a second home with them for investment purposes and couldn’t be happier! Pam Zaverdas – Chicago, IL.
Mark Pariser started and finalized our purchase of a wonderful villa at Desert Falls Country Club. He was diligent, conscientious, meticulous, thorough, zealous, untiring and laborious. We love Mark and we would recommend him to anyone wishing to make a real estate purchase in the Coachella Valley. Clair Rood & Jan Landberg – Minneapolis, MN.
We were lucky to have found Karen while we were living in Northern California and looking to re-locate to the Coachella Valley. She was responsive without being overbearing and understood our needs immediately. Besides being extremely personable, Karen is very knowledgeable in every aspect of real estate. Karen only showed us houses that suited our needs and was never high pressure, letting us voice our concerns and needs. We found the perfect house and she guided us through the negotiation process and we had an accepted offer within a day. She adeptly put together a 14 day escrow that she and her team accomplished in 12 days! I can not say enough about the positive experience we had working with Karen and would highly recommend her. She was a joy to work with and we thoroughly enjoyed our experience. Joe & Marge Hollander
While visiting friends this summer in Rancho Mirage, we happened to walk into an open house and met Mark Pariser. We had originally planned on purchasing next summer. Knowing this, he still went out of his way to show us multiple communities for two days straight. He knows the area like a cab driver and needed no GPS system, our former agent was the exact opposite. He quickly pointed out the positives and negatives of each development and somehow has each HOA monthly fee memorized! I’ve worked with agents in our state before but no one this positive and professional. I have referred him to friends and we all feel no other Realtor compares. Elayne & Sloan Gordon – Houston, TX.
We have been full-time residents/golf members/original owners in a gated Rancho Mirage golf community since 1989. We have known numerous Realtors and consider many close friends over the years. It finally came time for us to sell this summer. Being in sales my whole career, I knew what kind of an agent I required. I interviewed 3 local agents during this process. I wanted a young, aggressive, energetic agent that was 100% devoted to getting us top dollar. Discussing the situation with our neighbor, luckily for us he suggested Mark Pariser. This was just the agent I was looking for the whole time. He did open houses every weekend and found our buyer from it, only 28 days on market. He also set us up with movers and a handyman to fix some minor repairs. Look no further if you want a true professional! Cliff and Juanita McCormick – Bettendorf, Iowa.
Karen is a true realtor gem. Beyond being incredibly knowledgeable about the Palm Springs area, she knows all the intricacies to each of the communities which are often overlooked by others - from HOA costs, what's included in HOA fees, fee simple VS lease land and all! Once in the escrow process, which can definitely be daunting, Karen is patient but detailed... making sure no stone is unturned. She represents you like it's her own house, and will make sure you are getting what you're paying for. One of the added bonuses of Karen (besides being a wonderful person) is her expert eye for design and home care. Karen has an understanding of the costs for home improvement, and will be truthful and honest about the work that any prospective home will need. I highly recommend you hire Karen! Pamela & John Rogers – Santa Monica, CA
While in Mission Hills Country Club visiting a friend for lunch, we stopped by an open house. Mark showed us around for two weekends, non-stop. We were introduced to a wonderful community and bought a beautiful home and at amazing price. Each process was unique, he handled each flawlessly and we couldn’t recommend him more. We consider him part of our family and have him over for dinner monthly. On top of that he makes one unbelievable vegetable lasagna! Thank you for everything. Ann and Ed Dorr – Rancho Mirage, CA.
My wife and I were visiting friends in Palm Desert around Thanksgiving in 2018. They introduced us to real estate agent Mark Pariser. He showed us several homes in Mission Hills CC in Rancho Mirage in our price range. After we returned to Hawaii, he called to let us know that one of homes had just dropped out of escrow and suggested that we make an offer $50,000 below asking. The offer was accepted and Mark did a stellar job of making sure it closed on time in a very difficult escrow. We highly recommend Mark and will be using him in our future purchases and sales of real estate in the valley. Ron Greenfield- West Los Angeles, CA
Based on our numerous real estate transactions over the course of our lives, my husband and I find Karen to be a 5 Star+ realtor. She was very thorough in investigating our preferences for a house, and aimed to find us a desert home of our dreams! In addition, she did not high pressure us to look or buy. We always contacted her first to look at property, and she was very accommodating to agree to our schedules, as we were driving out of town to meet her in the desert. She is very knowledgeable in real estate law, and was fast in responding to our questions and concerns. Karen was very efficient in wrapping up a 30 day escrow, and we trusted her immensely in working for our best interests! She followed up on repair items in the home inspection, and made sure they were completed. Karen is a very pleasant and kind person to work with, and we couldn't recommended her more highly! Laurie & Ian Thomas – Detroit, MI
They picked us up and drove us around for three days straight, to view homes. They know every development and every inch of the entire valley. I loved that they would never try to sell us something we don’t like, or let us buy a house we’d regret. On top of that they brought out their fantastic contractor friend to look at a property and assess its possibilities – with no pressure. They also seem to know all the other agents quite well. The best thing about them is their amazing taste and love of the real estate business. We are so thankful we bought a home through them and give our highest recommendation! Robin and Morris Elson – New York, NY.
Real Estate Rancho Mirage made selling our parent’s home masterfully seamless. How often are you able to sell your house for more than you expected the first week on the market, without even an open house. Not only did they make that happen, they also negotiated time back in the house so we could move out at their pace. The sale went off without a hitch, every step of the way they had our back. They weren’t merely trying to make a deal for the sake of making money but rather making “our” deal, the one that felt comfortable for us. If you need to buy or sell you should look no further. They are local experts with extensive knowledge of both the geographic area and the housing market as well. Rebecca Feldman – Palm Springs, CA.
Our experience with Karen was the biggest bright spot in this whole experience. She went above and beyond to help us in any area we needed help. I would recommend her to anyone looking to purchase a home. Stuart Cohen – Madison. WI
Real Estate Rancho Mirage was the absolute perfect company for us and I’m so grateful we found them before we started our serious house-hunting. We originally had another agent who had very little knowledge of the developments or HOA dues associated with each community. We couldn’t be happier with our new home and they were extremely helpful through the entire process. This was the first time we have bought a home in 25 years and they made the whole experience pleasant and unintimidating! Theresa and Ken – Anaheim, CA
Having spent the last 20 years in the valley, we always dreamed of living on a golf course. We didn’t believe we could afford that, until we met the young team of agents at Real Estate Rancho Mirage. After one phone call and then 4 hours of visiting communities, I was wrong with my assumption. Not only did they show us affordable golf communities, but graciously pick us up and drove the whole day. We were even treated to lunch and round of golf. All this before we even decided to have them as our agent. We are now resident-members of that club and love our new home on the course. They go above and beyond with a very old-school style, which is uncommon these days. My wife and I feel they deserve our highest recommendation. David & Esther Reid – Cathedral City, CA.
Karen is extremely good at her job. She is professional, knowledgeable and honest to a fault. My wife and I felt completely at ease during the buying and selling processes, and that was 100% due to Karen. I cannot imagine that there is anyone better at this than Karen. She is aces in our book. Would use her again in a heartbeat. Ian Bask – Dallas, TX
This summer, we sold our Mission Hills home in a multiple offer situation. Mark Pariser is a consummate professional who is a strategic negotiator and trusted advisor. We truly felt we got top dollar for our home. He also helped us buy our next home in a very competitive market – his experience helped us smoothly navigate through the entire process as buyers, from the inspections to the final closing. Working with Mark has been a fantastic experience and we regard him as a friend. Joyce & Stanley Timmins – Sun City - Palm Desert, CA
Mark Pariser of Real Estate Rancho Mirage is a fantastic Realtor. He helped us purchase our home in Mission Hills East, through diligence and strong negotiating skills. Mark is a go-getter, you want him on your side! He’s incredibly communicative and accessible which is important during the escrow process, yet he never puts pressure on you – he just guides you to make the right decisions for yourself. In addition, he was able to connect us with local contractors once our house closed, he doesn’t dust his hands off once the sale is closed. We highly recommend Mark to anyone looking for a sharp, knowledgeable and determined agent! Nicole & Jon – Rancho Mirage, CA
Karen is very resourceful and responsive. She was a great buyer rep for us in our Shadow Hills purchase. She dealt with numerous issues successfully. Karen’s negotiation skills were unmatched and I highly recommend her to anyone seeking an aggressive agent who will work tirelessly to complete the task. Don & Rebecca Hansen – Bend, OR
I have worked with Mark Pariser for about two years on various transactions. My personal experience with Mark is that being a real estate agent is much more than showing homes/closing deals. He loves what he does. Taking the time to understand what your needs are and goes far and beyond the call of duty to meet them. I needed to sell my house in a very short amount of time and as painlessly as possible. Mark came up with the right price. He knows the market and never gave excuses. Held open houses even after we had sufficient offers, just to make sure we were covered. I have worked with many real estate agents and Mark is the best at what he does. He is down to business, which makes working with him a wonderful experience. Thank you Mark. Ralph Wallberg – Beverly Hills, CA
We have now bought or sold a total of three homes with Real Estate Rancho Mirage. They are consummate professionals who not only have a masterful awareness of the market, but more importantly, have the unique ability to leverage those market conditions to your advantage. They also make you feel like you are their only client, a true gift in an industry that does not always practice good bedside manners. Kevin McFarland – Portland, OR.
