We had the great fortune to work with Mike Z. Haque of Desert Cities Home on the purchase of our home in Rancho Mirage. He had been recommended by two friends who both raved about his service and he did not disappoint! When we began the process, we had only limited knowledge of the Coachella Valley, but provided Mike with an idea of what we were interested in seeing. Mike was able to distill our long and somewhat vague list of "wants" and provide valuable guidance as we narrowed the search. What stood out from the beginning was Mike's commitment to providing the best solution for us and not simply providing the listings for what was available. He asked the right questions, was always available, and provided excellent guidance. When we found our home in Mission Hills East, the offer was not straightforward and Mike navigated the challenges perfectly and always with our best interest in mind. As Canadians, we were new to the US Escrow process and closing process in California and Mike provided huge support. Mike even helped us secure a fantastic landscape contractor who was familiar with our community and did excellent work. I would highly recommend working with Mike, he is a true gem, the consummate professional and expert in his field. From his knowledge of the Coachella Valley, his analysis of the market, his commitment to his clients, and the ability to handle every step of the process seamlessly (from a marathon first day seeing 12 properties to the intricacies of a complex offer), Mike is the kind of realtor that makes the experience fun, stress-free and memorable.

Mike, of Desert Cities, is just incredible. No other way to describe him. We bought and sold houses three times with him over the past nine months, and each time our needs were a bit different. Mike was always a step ahead, anticipating what to do and alleviating any stress for my wife and I. We kept saying our realtor here on the East Coast, selling our current home before moving west, just paled in comparison to this guy. We have grown to respect him professionally and enjoyed his company on a personal level over this past year. Simply put, Mike is the best at what he does.

We had an exceptional experience with Desert Cities Homes and, in particular, Mike Haque, in purchasing our first Palm Desert investment property. Mike was able to ask all the right questions to determine our “must haves” and was able to find multiple properties that could meet our needs. He always gave us great advice and recommendations. He is extremely patient, organized, flexible, and knowledgeable on properties throughout the Coachella Valley. Mike was available at all times and helped to make the closing process very smooth. We love our new place and will definitely return to Mike for any future real estate needs.

Mike Z. Haque at Desert Cities Homes and his team of real estate agents have helped us buy and sell homes in Palm Desert. We received custom marketing, professional photography, and video marketing to help market our home. They maintained great communication, addressed challenges, and gave great solutions to obstacles with a positive and friendly attitude. We will use Mike Z. Haque for any further real estate needs.

Simply put, there is no one better! What makes Mike unique is his combination of Market expertise, professionalism, integrity, and genuine enjoyment of helping you find the right place. We came to Palm Springs and spent a few days touring several properties. After returning to Minnesota a property came up that was just what we wanted. Mike handled the whole purchase remotely and flawlessly. If you want to feel confident that your agent has your back, call Mike.

Mike Haque is very knowledgeable about the market in the desert valley. He gave me sage advice when asked and worked hard to help make this potentially stressful process be as smooth a transaction as possible. Mike is an effective listener and a great negotiator. Since I had to drive a few hours to come view homes I was so pleased that Mike found, and set up viewings, that had many of the requirements I had listed as to what I wanted in a home. Once we found ‘the one’, Mike helped negotiate a fair price for both the seller and myself. What made Mike a unique and invaluable agent to have was his ability to hear the unspoken as well as the spoken desires, needs, and priorities I was looking for in a desert home. With his help, I found the perfect home. I am living the desert life!

I have been in the real estate business for over 40 years. During that time I have literally dealt with over a thousand agents. Most are quite weak. Mike Haque recently listed my home right in the middle of the coronavirus and did a great job selling it. He was smart, hardworking, honest, very knowledgeable on the market, and promptly followed through in all aspects. He never panicked during this difficult time and calmly talked me off the ledge more than once. He was always readily available despite my barrage of calls and texts on a daily basis. I would highly recommend Mike to anyone in the process of buying or selling a home.
