Selling a Home in Indio


Sellers across Riverside County have trusted Jay Romero for more than 25 years because he prices with care, prepares homes well and negotiates for top dollar. Indio, the City of Festivals, sits in the eastern Coachella Valley along the I-10, home to the Empire Polo Club, the Riverside County Fair and National Date Festival and the age-restricted Sun City Shadow Hills community.

Who Is Buying in Indio

Homes include older single-family houses near downtown, newer master-planned communities, golf course homes and age-restricted communities. Buyers value newer homes at a lower price than the western valley cities, golf and community amenities and festival rental potential.

Local Prep and Pricing Advice

Service the cooling and pool, and gather utility bills. Be clear about short-term rental rules and HOA restrictions if buyers ask about festival rentals.
