"I appreciated Will and his staff. He provided his strategy for selling our property and then he followed through on that plan. Communication was excellent. We got briefings every week on the activity, feedback from potential buyers and their agents. I trusted Will's advice and opinion. When I needed to make decisions, Will helped with facts and asked questions to help my decision making process, but never forced/pushed a decision. He always supported my actions. I highly recommend Will Cook as a buyer or seller agent."

"My partner and I were visiting friends in Palm Springs. We are from Harrisburg, PA but would like to retire to Palm Springs as soon as possible. We met Bill at an open house in June 2018. He set us up on his company's robo emails for properties that met our interest criteria. Within a month we received an email on a house we liked, called Bill and got the process of submitting an offer started. The whole process was completed within a month and we are now PS home owners! Bill was very professional and because we were back in Harrisburg and buying the house with only friends recommendations, Bill had to go back and forth with the sellers quite a bit. He took every one of our questions seriously and pushed the sellers for timely responses.
We can't supply much more information on Bill's qualifications as a realtor as this was the only house we worked together on and it went so fast with no real hiccups. I guess that's the best you can ask for! (One minor misunderstanding on the buyers due diligence period but we worked through that and not a big deal.) He also walked us through the process of electronic signing (never did it before) and always informed us ahead of time what would be coming and how to complete it. I would recommend Bill to others looking for property in PS"

Bill worked his magic to get me an awesome home.
"Bill was extremely knowledgeable about the area where I wanted to buy, grasped my taste in homes very quickly, and only showed what he thought I would be interested in. He was extremely patient when I asked to see this home 4 times to make sure it was the right one. Bill negotiated a super deal on my home, and we closed in a very short time of the offer being made. It was an extremely smooth process. He was also very knowledgeable when we also had the home inspection. It was such a great pleasure to work with him. If I ever sell this home, he's the person I would go to. "

"Will is a very informative man. He knows his job and treated my partner and I with respect and kindness. We made 3 visits to Palm Springs to look at places to move. Will was more than happy to show us places that met our requirements, and a few that he knew we would like (and he was right),"

“Listed on Thursday and in escrow the 3 days later! This is the second amazing home buying experience we have had with Will Cook and his team. He sold our home and also got us into our new one. Will's knowledge of the Coachella Valley area market and trends is outstanding. He takes time to explain everything in layman's terms so you are not left wondering about anything. We met with him a few months before we were ready to sell and followed ALL of his suggestions in preparing our home for sale and it paid off. So, listen to Will and follow his lead! His assistant, John, was on top of all communications and extremely helpful with sometimes confusing documents. They both kept on top of the escrow and closing process and everything went off without an issue on selling our home or the purchase of our new one. You are in good hands with Will for sure.”

"We chose Bill Seals as our agent when looking to buy a home in the Coachella Valley because of his excellent reputation and we could not have been more satisfied with his professionalism and the quality of service that he provided. Bill helped us find the house of our dreams in just 2 outings, he connected us with a high quality lender, and he assured that the process was as smooth as possible every step of the way. We closed in what very might be record time--30 days from offer to closing--and I think we got an incredible deal, thanks to Bill's expertise and negotiation skills--a great price below asking, a home appliance warranty, and a number of requested upgrades to the property. I would highly recommend Bill to anyone looking for a home in the Coachella Valley."

"We have had Will Cook represent us twice in the Palm Springs and Rancho Mirage markets. We were impressed by the level of detail and knowledge that Will has for the markets in the Coachella Valley. His artful approach to negotiating the best value was something we benefited from. If your looking for an ultra responsive and professional realtor that has detailed knowledge of the market your buying or selling in, then look no further. We have bought and sold real estate up and down the west coast, we wished we had a "Will Cook" with each purchase and sale. He far exceeded all expectations."

"Great guy, super knowledgeable about the process, the area and real estate in general. We were very grateful to have met Bill and he was found the perfect property match for us. We had several professionals we were considering for assistance, but it was a no brainer after a few meetings that we should just stay with Bill. "
