We recently purchased a second home in the desert, and we truly could not have done it without our incredible realtor, Betsy Justice! From the very beginning, she was patient, knowledgeable, and completely attuned to what we were looking for. She understood the nuances of the area and guided us through every step of the process with kindness, care and professionalism.
Since we were buying in another state, the process could have easily felt overwhelming—but Betsy held our hands the entire way, answering every question and making sure we felt confident and informed. We kissed a lot of frogs along the way, but with her help, we finally found the perfect home (I admit, I was really picky!).
We’re so grateful for Betsy's dedication, insight, and support throughout this journey. If you're looking for someone who truly has your best interests at heart, we can’t recommend her highly enough. Added bonus: I have a new friend!

Betsy is very personable and professional.She explains everything clearly and gives you options as well as educated explanations of each question you have.
She is also very compassionate ,you can tell she really cares for her clients and how they are feeling during the entire process.
I highly recommend Betsy and I will be referring everyone I know to her!

Kayla Cunard with the Sheri Dettman team…is the agent you need. Her calm manner and knowledge is exactly what’s needed in an agent. She is patient when it comes to explaining the buying process.
She helped us immensely when purchasing our Del Webb Rancho Mirage home. Her assistance was invaluable!

From our very first phone call with Betsy Justice, she took the time to understand our needs, preferences, and budget. She provided a well-researched list of properties that met our criteria and was highly responsive to our questions, ensuring we felt informed and confident every step of the way. We gave her a lot of items that were on our wishlist for our new home, and she tried to get us all of them! Having Betsy with us every step of the way of our home buying experience gave us such relief, which made the often stressful experience of home buying much more manageable. We highly recommend Betsy Justice and wouldn't use any other realtor!

We are incredibly pleased with the professionalism and service provided by Lauren and the entire Sheri Dettman team. They made the entire process smooth and enjoyable. We sincerely appreciate their friendly approach throughout the sale process and highly recommend them to family and friends.

It was an absolute pleasure working with Kayla! My daughter was purchasing her first property and Kayla made the entire process seamless. They say that true professionals make difficult things look easy, and she delivered!
I would highly recommend using Kayla and her team for any of your real estate needs. Her professionalism truly reflects her outstanding commitment towards providing the utmost in customer service and we couldn't be happier with my daughter's purchase.
Thanks again Kayla and we look forward to working with you again in the near future!

Kayla Cunard helped us to buy our fist property in Palm Desert. At the beginning we didn’t really know what we were looking for… Kayla helped us immensely to understand and get to know the different areas and communities. We could not have done without her! Her patience, commitment, and professionalism were so helpful for us, given that we were purchasing from outside the country. During the process, it also became clear to us that Kayla is well respected by her peers and other industry professionals. I would not hesitate to recommend Kayla to anyone looking for a home in the Coachella valley. You would be in very safe and professional hands!

The bottom line is that within 41 days, with the help and direction of Sheri Dettman and Lisa Blodgett, I sold my house of 20 years, bought a smaller place nearby, got top dollar for the house, a good deal on the smaller place AND had a good time doing it (as opposed to excruciating experiences I’ve had doing this stuff in the past.
I interviewed four agents and easily chose Sheri for her friendly, prompt, and professional demeanor as well as her very experienced abilities. I met Lisa through Sheri who turned out to have the same qualities (they call themselves teammates). What I really liked about them both, and perhaps more important, was their calming, sympathetic responsiveness to my enduring nervousness throughout the whole deal. I’m an edgy guy, especially in the face of such a life changing affair. They made it all happen in a fun, step by step and very re-assuring manner, and I was only homeless for five days.
No one will ever know if they were THAT good or I just got lucky, but in talking to escrow agents and others they work closely with, it’s evident that they are either really good or lucky on a regular basis. I heartily recommend either one or both of them if you can pull it off.
Sincerely,
Bruce Vogel

Team Dettman is amazing. We worked exclusively with Lisa, who was thoughtful, thorough, pleasant, fun and knowledgable. She took us everywhere until we found the look and feel we wanted and then she helped us find our ideal spot. It was an intense process over a few weeks and Lisa was always helping and being the guide we needed to finder new home. Her knowledge of the area was vast and current.
The word "Home" conjurs up different things to different people, but for me, it became, over time, super-charged with a sense of longing but resignment, having been a multiple home owner at one stage and walking away from it all to experience what inevitably became a determinedly nomadic existence.
"Home" eventually became a distant thing that belonged to other people, something other folk enjoyed, an experience I once had but was maybe never going to happen again, like a trip to that diving island in Fiji I'd never go to again, even though I loved it, or that place in London I should have kept, but didn't, and at times searching for where "Home" might be. I would throw darts against a map pinned on the wall, wondering if they'd stick onto some place I never thought about and like magic "Home" would happen again. But it didn't.
My besties who have a place in Palm Desert (a place I felt calm and very creative in) wanted me to stick the dart there and, never really wholly engaging in the idea, eventually I agreed to meet their friend Betsy Justice and, after much discussion, we went on a journey together. A road trip really. I rode shotgun with her as she took me on adventures of the idea of "Home" and what it might look like in the many ways that others see as "Home" and many times I just knew there wasn't enough gas in the world to get me there and just let her drive that car alongside a stubborn critter that just didn't believe you could actually get anywhere anymore.
And then at times I realised it was she who was sitting shotgun beside me and taking in the mysterious WTF of what even I didn't know what it was I was looking for. And eventually it shapeshifted into understanding.
And here's the thing:
The world is populated with people who call themselves "Real Estate Agents" and that's just fine. It's also populated, though in a lesser degree, with people who ride shotgun with your dreams, even though you don't even think your dream lives out there in the world anymore, and that simple strong powerful energy of someone just wanting you to find the thing you want, or don't even know you want, but riding shotgun with you in an adventure to find the place - The Place - that make your heart sing, that makes you feel safe, that makes you feel the world is actually alright - is rare and extremely special.
I'm a Home Owner now. Not a Property Owner. Not a House Owner. I got "Home". I have keys in my hand. They're mine.
Thank you Betsy Justice, for riding shotgun with me or me riding with you, who gives a crap.
We got me there. We got me Home.

We were represented by Betsy Justice. Betsy has represented my wife and I in multiple transactions. She is extremely organized and professional. She ran point on our last transaction which was incredibly helpful. She has a great knowledge of the area and spent a great deal of time locating an ideal property for us. We will continue to use Betsy and would highly recommend her to others.

Our agent, Lisa Blodgett, was everything a client could ask for in a realtor. She was personable, informed, and enthusiastic about our search for a new home. When we were stonewalled by the mishandled purchase of our home in Vallejo, she was upbeat about the obstacles and patient about the process. She is the most effective professional in the business.

We worked with Betsy Justice for over a year during 2 winter seasons to buy our desert home. She is consistently positive and encouraging. She proved to be a trustworthy partner during the purchase process and was always available for frequent texts, calls and emails. Thank you, Betsy!

Sheri Dettman and her team handled the sale of my condo and the purchase of a new home and I couldn't have been more pleased with both transactions. Based on the marketing research Sheri provided, the list price and timing was right on the money! First offer accepted closing escrow was a breeze with the guidance and oversight from Sheri.
Now on to the new home! I was placed in the extremely capable hands of Betsy Justice. Let me start by saying Betsy is the consummate professional. Not only is Betsy at the top of her game in real estate, she brings a wealth of knowledge in construction which allows her to identify potential problems or benefits in any home we walked thru. Our journey to find the perfect home was long and arduous but Betsy never gave in or gave up. Her determination and tenacity lead me to my dream home I'm grateful beyond words.
Thank you to Sheri, Betsy and all the people behind the scenes that this a stellar real estate company!

Betsy did a great job helping us buy a house in Palm Springs. She was amazing at her knowledge of real estate and provided us excellent service throughout the entire purchase experience. We highly recommend Betsy to anyone looking for a top notch realter.

Kayla was a strong ally in the purchase of my home. I found her to be very intuitive, honest, market savvy and I was continually impressed by her dedication to me as a client. In a market as competitive as this I felt I was blessed by having an agent who negotiated very well, looked out for my interests and wasn't afraid to give advice. There are numerous instances where she went over and above what would be considered great service. The true tell of her dedication to clients came after the sale where she continued to assist and advise. This was the best experience I have had with a realtor.

Thank you to Kayla Cunard for making our experience of buying a home in La Quinta such an enjoyable experience. Kayla went above and beyond on our behalf to ensure our buying experience was flawless. Her attention to detail, responsiveness and knowledge of the valley were just what we were looking for in an agent and she’s also a lovely person. A positive experience from start to finish.

We just purchased our wonderful home at Santa Rosa Cove in La Quinta and could not be happier! Kayla Cunard was so amazing from start to finish. We saw a home when we were out of the country but it felt rather overwhelming. Kayla was understanding and so helpful when we returned home to see the property. That first property was not the right one, but she texted when a new one came on the market. We love the one that we purchased and Kayla was there every step of the way. Always available, always positive and always amazing. She did our walk through as we live out of town, and then met us the next day with our keys. We really cannot say enough of the fantastic job that Kayla did! Thank you so much for facilitating our dream home! I highly recommend Kayla to anyone looking for a wonderful person and an amazing agent in the desert!

I first reached out to Sheri in May 2021, as my fiance and I were interested in buying a home in the desert. She connected us with Kayla Cunard and it was a fantastic match from the beginning. As first time homebuyers, we really didn't know much...from the process to a lot of the terminology. Kayla was such an amazing resource and put us at ease from day one. We kept in touch throughout the summer...really waiting for the right home to become available. When we found it in October, the process was smooth and we felt like we were in such good hands from start to finish. Kayla was always available by phone, email, or text. She's bubbly and so easy to talk to...I always enjoyed our conversations and updates. She answered questions, she advised us on next steps in the process...we never felt worried or unsure. It was such a great feeling and I will recommend her to ANYONE looking for a desert home. We can't wait for this next chapter in our lives and will always be so grateful to Kayla and Sheri for making it happen. Thank you, thank you, thank you!

Betsy Justice is delightful! I am so pleased to have connected with her and highly recommend her. She has a wonderful positive attitude and doesn't let anything distract from her quest to find the perfect home that matches all your specifications. Best of all, she managed my expectations so that I was never taken by surprise and always had a solution (or two) for little glitches that might arise in the process--and we had a few glitches that she took the initiative to overcome smoothly. I ended up with a dream home that is even better than I imagined at the beginning of the process. Thank you, thank you, Betsy!

I had an excellent experience working with Betsy Justice for the second time. She is knowledgeable, patient and so experienced. Her help with the purchase extended even after the transaction as she shares all her knowledge of the area.

We were very pleased with Sheri's service. She responded to emails and telephone calls in a very timely manner. She was also always ready to go the extra mile to insure closure.
You will not go wrong giving her your listing.

We were so fortunate to connect with Betsy Justice as we began our second home search in the desert. From the moment we met her we knew it was a great match. Betsy helped us through the entire process with her expertise, professionalism, understanding, creative solutions to bumps in the process, and overall patience with all our questions. We couldn't have asked for better support and a nicer person to work with. We highly recommend Betsy Justice as she will work her magic to find you that perfect home that best fits your style and needs!!
