It might be tough to adequately describe the incredible experience we had working with Dan and Debi. Dan and Debi are the TOP agents in our neighborhood and so going with them was a no-brainer. Even so, the work they did far exceeded our expectations. When we decided to sell our home we wanted to move quickly. We were out of town, but we gave them a call and they got the ball rolling immediately. They put together an incredible team of stagers, photographers, and videographers, and two weeks to the day of that call we were live on the market! Dan and Debi were confident that the house would sell for a price much higher than we had anticipated, and we trusted their guidance. Good thing, because within 12 hours of launch we received an offer for way over asking! Dan and Debi negotiated a fantastic deal for us and the transaction could not have gone more quickly or smoothly. We are incredibly grateful to both of them. Thank you Team Valentino!!

After years of online shopping, we were ready to work with a realtor, booked a trip to Palm Springs, and contacted Dan Valentino who came highly recommended by a friend. Dan sent some listings with questions to understand our preferences. His knowledge and experience was evident from the start. We planned to fly down on a Monday, enjoy time in the area, then meet Dan and Debi that Thursday to view homes. While waiting for our flight, Dan sent a link to a home listed that morning with offers being reviewed on Wednesday. He was very respectful of our schedule and didn’t push. We asked if we could see it Tuesday morning. While viewing the home, the seller’s agent said they would be reviewing offers that night instead of Wednesday. Wanting to see a few more homes before we decided, Dan and Debi made last minute calls to setup showings but they were right, the first home was the one. We called from dinner and Dan guided us through the offer process and how to make it appealing to the seller. We were not the highest bid but our offer was accepted. Dan and Debi made everything easy, were attentive, and just couldn’t be nicer people. They make you feel like you are their only clients. On the final walkthrough, we noticed items left by the seller not on the inventory list and asked Dan if he negotiated them for us. He had. We mentioned liking a statue in the yard that the sellers were taking. Without our knowledge, Debi found the source. We are sure the amount of work the Valentinos do without the buyers’ knowledge is unfathomable. In an age when services are being commoditized, it’s a pleasure to work with professionals that go above and beyond for you. We hope we can work with Dan and Debi again. We highly recommend them!

There aren’t enough superlatives to describe the level of service we received from Valentino & Valentino from the beginning to the end of what turned out to be an emotional roller coaster. Dan changed hats from real estate professional to counselor to psychologist with ease while maintaining a calm and steady demeanor guiding us to successful outcomes on both transactions.

Dan and Debi represented the seller of the home that we purchased in Palm Springs 8 years ago. We liked them so much that we told them that if we ever decided to sell, the listing was theirs. 8 years later Dan listed our house, and it sold in 4 days for over asking in the Mesa in Palm Springs. Dan is absolutely amazing, a quality person. He is professional, honest, patient, understanding, humble, empathetic, knowledgeable about every aspect of real estate, prompt, and makes you feel like you are his only client and his top priority. We trust him implicitly. His word is gold. Selling a home, showings, inspections, and the escrow period is a very stressful process. Dan made it almost a pleasure! One of the most impressive things about Dan is the speed in which he gets back to you. I don’t know how he did it, but he always answered every question we had (there were many) immediately. It was an absolute pleasure to do business with Dan. We wholeheartedly recommend him. Thank you for an amazing sale Dan!

"As a first time buyer, I had to learn and understand the whole process, from finding a place, to the application, all the way to closing. This can be daunting. Debi was amazing for every single step of the process, going the extra-mile and making sure I had all the information needed to make the important decisions. I would certainly work with Debi again next time!"

"Debi helped us find a vacation home in an extremely difficult market. She was incredibly knowledgable, professional, and responsive. She answered all my questions and responded the same day. She truly knows the business, which was so incredibly useful as we encountered incompetent parties throughout the process. Moreover, she continues to help me after the closing! Not many agents are willing to help you out once they receive their pay check. Debi is truly a treasure! She will go above and beyond for her clients! I highly recommend her!"

It was a real pleasure working with Dan and Debi to get our home sold. They were true professionals every step of the way. The details of the sale were clear and handled with frequent communication. We felt very comfortable working with them. Not only because of their impeccable work ethic but also the fact that they are genuinely nice people. We highly recommend them and plan to work with them again in the future when we sell our rental property.

Dan and Debi Valentino sold our house in March 2021. Selling a home can be stressful, but Dan and Debi were calm and steady from beginning to end. They gave us a realistic picture of how the process would play out, and blocked & tackled for us the whole way. They are very organized, responsive, and excellent communicators. Additionally, their communication with each other is seamless, so it never matters which one you are talking to. Their deep experience in the Palm Springs real estate market was evident in every interaction with us and with every agent that brought someone to view our home. We highly recommend the Valentino team.

We have bought and sold four homes in Palm Springs over the past decade. This was our first experience with Dan and Debi. We met Dan at an open house on our block and kept seeing their signs popping up around our neighborhood. They didn't seem to stay up for long; this was a good sign. I strongly believe in finding someone who knows the neighborhood well so when we were ready to sell our home they were one of three agents we contacted. They were professional, realistic in pricing and had a very good understanding of neighborhood trends. The decision to go with them was easy. We still had to do some things to get our home ready for the market. Dan and Debi provided great tips and resources for vendors. They were also happy to show us other listings. They were able to quickly pull comp information together and knew most of the listing agents (which was helpful when we needed some quick answers). Dan and Debi held three opens (including a realtor open) in six days and by the first weekend we had two offers. We took the offer that was over asking price. That is always a good feeling. While looking for our next home, they had shown us a home we thought would work so we went back for a realtor open. They let the listing agent know we were coming so she greeted us by name and then let us wander. We then went back with Dan and Debi (again) to discuss our remodeling ideas and they gave great input regarding which options would give the best payback when we eventually go to sell. We decided it was the right move for us. They again provided comp information and neighborhood knowledge which helped us decide on our offer price. After a bit of negotiation, we reached a very satisfactory deal on the new home. Through all of the drama of inspections, paperwork, land leases, escrow, etc., Dan and Debi were prompt with information, guided us through the process and helped move things along. They have been in business in Palm Springs for a long time and have a great network that extends to the local escrow companies and Bureau of Indian Affairs. We couldn't be more pleased with the outcome. They were insightful, knowledgeable, quick to respond, positive and got the deal done. They made a potentially stressful situation smooth and easy. We will definitely use Dan and Debi again.

"Dan and Debi are a true pleasure to work with. Finding an experienced and patient realtor is not the easiest thing to do. Both of them are exactly just that. Not only did they do a great job of selling my fathers house, but they made a difficult situation a really smooth process. I would highly recommend Dan and Debi, and would definitely work with them again!"
