📰 News we're reading

• Palm Springs leads valley in home sales, but pace is down from a year ago ⋆ The Palm Springs Post (thepalmspringspost.com) — Homes in Coachella are selling faster than anywhere else in the valley, with a median 31 days on market and the smallest average discount from list price. While Palm Springs leads in total sales, the latest Desert Housing Report shows valley-wide inventory edging higher, prices mostly holding, and a market that analysts say still depends on lower mortgage rates to truly loosen up.
   

• How to Help Homeless Dogs in the Coachella Valley (coachellavalleyweekly.com) — Homeless dogs are overwhelming shelters across the Coachella Valley, including facilities in Coachella and Thousand Palms, and residents are seeing more strays in East Valley neighborhoods. You’re urged to adopt from local shelters, support groups like the Fido Walkers, lobby city leaders and landlords for pet-friendly policies, and volunteer, donate, or foster to ease the crisis.
