What’s Happening with Canadian Buyers and Sellers in Palm Springs?
There’s been a noticeable shift in the Palm Springs real estate scene this year—especially among our Canadian neighbors. With current political dynamics and the exchange rate weighing heavily on minds, many Canadian homeowners are reevaluating their ties to the desert. Some are considering selling their homes, while snowbirds who typically rent for the winter season are opting not to renew leases for next year, choosing instead to travel elsewhere.
These trends have caught the attention of major news outlets, including the Los Angeles Times, who recently interviewed Paul Kaplan for insights into how Canadian travel and investment habits are impacting the Palm Springs market. Other media sources have also reached out, recognizing the issue as a growing story in the Coachella Valley.
