La Quinta is Still the Blue-Chip Stock of the Desert

La Quinta's median price is $500,000. This is a 11.5% increase from April 2005.
There were however 24.7% less units sold.

With the exception of La Quinta Cove (an ungated 7000 unit development) and La Quinta North, finding a single family home with a private backyard in a gated community at the median price is rather difficult.

The best buys in La Quinta for gated golf course communities, are currently in The Citrus whilst for non-golf gated communities, Laguna La Paz has great opportunities.
