Her family’s connection to the Coachella Valley dates to 1960, and she has represented buyers and sellers here for 25 years, through every cycle this market has run. She founded The McLennan Team at Desert Sotheby’s International Realty and works alongside her daughter and business partner, Cailin McLennan. She holds the Board of Regents territory for Palm Springs and Riverside County within Who’s Who in Luxury Real Estate, and is licensed in both California and Nevada. At a glance Role Founder, The McLennan Team at Desert Sotheby’s International Realty In the Valley 25 years; family connection to the desert since 1960 Generations of Realtors Three Licensed California and Nevada California DRE #01424382 Designations ABR · GRI · RSPS Network Board of Regents, Who’s Who in Luxury Real Estate, Palm Springs and Riverside County Specialties Luxury estates, golf and country club communities, equestrian property, second homes Areas served La Quinta, Indian Wells, Palm Desert, Rancho Mirage, Palm Springs, Indio Office 78065 Main Street, Suite 101, La Quinta, California 92253, United States Nearest airport Palm Springs International, approximately 30 minutes Twenty five years, one valley Laurie has built the business the old fashioned way: through results, referrals and relationships that outlast a single closing. Her clients range from first time desert buyers to seasoned investors, and they all get the same thing, someone who has seen this market through every cycle and knows how to position a deal to close. Property has run in the family for three generations, and the desert connection goes back to 1960. That is a long time to watch one market, and it is the reason she can tell you not just what a community is like today but how it got there. Inside the Valley’s private communities Laurie is best known inside the desert’s most private addresses: The Madison Club, The Hideaway, Tradition Golf Club, PGA WEST, Rancho La Quinta, BIGHORN Golf Club, The Reserve, Indian Wells Country Club, The Quarry and Andalusia at Coral Mountain. These communities are not interchangeable, and the differences matter more than most buyers realize before they arrive. Membership structures vary. Some clubs require residency and some do not. Association dues cover very different things from one community to the next. Short term rental eligibility turns on the specific address rather than the community name. And within a single club, two homes at the same asking price can live entirely differently depending on orientation, view corridor, course frontage and afternoon sun. That is the knowledge Laurie brings, and it is the reason her clients hear about properties before they list. Read the buyer’s guides: The Madison Club · The Hideaway · Tradition Golf Club · PGA WEST · The Quarry · Andalusia · all community guides Equestrian and polo property Laurie is one of the Valley’s most trusted resources for equestrian property near Desert International Horse Park, working with riders, trainers and seasonal residents who need someone who understands the lifestyle rather than just the listing sheet. She rides herself. Cailin is a competitive polo player with active ties to Empire Polo Club and Eldorado Polo Club, which gives the team a rare firsthand understanding of the market it serves. Zoning, footing, water, turnout and proximity decide whether a property works for a string or only looks like it does, and none of that is visible in a listing photograph. Working with buyers from outside California A meaningful share of Coachella Valley buyers arrive from somewhere else. Canadians who winter here. Buyers from the Pacific Northwest, the Midwest and the Northeast escaping the season. Families from the UK, Europe, Mexico and Asia buying a second or third residence. Investors looking at a market with a defined high season and unusual event demand. Those buyers face questions a local one does not, and Laurie works through them regularly: Buying remotely Video tours, detailed on the ground reporting and offers written and negotiated before a buyer ever lands Foreign purchase There is no restriction on non US citizens buying residential property in California. Financing, tax treatment and title structure differ and need specialist advice Seasonal ownership What a house needs when it sits empty from May to October, and who looks after it Club membership Whether membership transfers, whether residency is required and what it costs, which varies enormously by community Rental use Short term rental eligibility in La Quinta turns on the specific address, not the community. It is verifiable before you offer Getting here Palm Springs International is roughly 30 minutes from most of these communities, with direct service from major US and Canadian cities Referring agents are welcome. Laurie holds the Board of Regents territory for Palm Springs and Riverside County within Who’s Who in Luxury Real Estate, and referral clients are handled personally by Laurie and Cailin rather than passed to an assistant. Two global networks Every listing is placed through the Sotheby’s International Realty network, carrying it to qualified buyers in markets most local agents cannot access, alongside professional photography, video and international marketing. Every listing also moves through Who’s Who in Luxury Real Estate, where Laurie holds the Board of Regents territory for Palm Springs and Riverside County, a seat held by a single member firm per market across the network’s global membership. In a valley where many buyers arrive from outside California and a meaningful number from outside the country, that reach is not a nice to have. Two networks, two sets of qualified buyers, one team handling the transaction. Every client works directly with Laurie and Cailin, not with an assistant. Common questions Who is Laurie McLennan?

She works alongside her mother and business partner, Laurie McLennan, at The McLennan Team at Desert Sotheby’s International Realty. Cailin specializes in equestrian and polo property, private golf and country club communities, and second homes across the Coachella Valley. A competitive polo player at Empire Polo Club and Eldorado Polo Club, she is one of very few agents in the Valley who competes in the discipline she sells into. Her background is in global hospitality and VIP operations for Formula 1, Riot Games and Fortune 500 brand activations.

Buying into it is not the same as buying a house that happens to have a barn, and the difference is expensive to learn after the fact. Zoning, footing, water, turnout, arena orientation and proximity to the show grounds all decide whether a property works for a string or only looks like it does. None of that appears in a listing photograph, and most of it is difficult to assess without having kept horses somewhere yourself. Cailin competes in polo at Empire Polo Club and Eldorado Polo Club, and works with riders, trainers, owners and investors on: Equestrian acreage and zoning suited to horses Barn and arena properties Established desert horse communities Homes near Desert International Horse Park in Thermal Seasonal residences for competitors, trainers and owners Very few agents in the Valley compete in the discipline they sell into. It means knowing which properties work for a working string, which ones only look like they do, and who is thinking about selling before the season ends. The private communities Working alongside Laurie, Cailin has built firsthand command of the Valley’s private golf and country club market, from The Madison Club and The Hideaway to Tradition, PGA WEST, The Quarry and Andalusia at Coral Mountain. Those communities are not interchangeable. Membership structures differ, association dues cover different things, short term rental eligibility turns on the specific address, and within one club two homes at the same price can live entirely differently depending on orientation and view corridor. The team publishes detailed buyer’s guides to six of them. Read the guides: The Madison Club · The Hideaway · Tradition Golf Club · PGA WEST · The Quarry · Andalusia · all community guides An operating standard from somewhere else Cailin’s background is in global hospitality and VIP operations for Formula 1, Riot Games and Fortune 500 brand activations. Those are environments where every guest interaction, every transition and every detail has to be right the first time, because there is no second take. That is the standard she applies to every transaction: the same precision, the same responsiveness, the same intolerance for a detail slipping. A former NCAA Division I athlete, she brings the same composure under pressure to a negotiation that she brought to competition. Clients consistently name her responsiveness and attention to detail as the difference between a stressful transaction and a seamless one. Event season and investment property South La Quinta, Indio and Thermal sit at the centre of a calendar most markets do not have: the winter equestrian season, the polo season, and the Coachella and Stagecoach festivals. That creates genuine rental demand and a specific kind of investment buyer. It also creates a trap. The City of La Quinta has prohibited most new short term vacation rental permits since May 20, 2021, and eligibility now turns on the specific address rather than the neighbourhood, with community and association rules frequently stricter still. Cailin verifies this before an offer rather than after, which is the only useful time to know. Common questions Who is Cailin McLennan?
