Hello there! My name is Arturo Andrade Jr., but you can simply call me Art. As a long-time resident of the beautiful Coachella Valley for over 13 years, I have had the pleasure of raising my incredible family here. With three wonderful children - two boys and a girl - my wife and I have created countless cherished memories. As we approach our upcoming anniversary in November 2023, I am excited to introduce myself as a dedicated real estate professional, ready to help you find your dream home in this thriving community. Nature is my sanctuary, and I am an avid outdoors enthusiast. When I'm not assisting clients, you can find me indulging in thrilling dirt-bike rides alongside my kids or exploring the exhilarating 4x4 trails of Ocotillo Wells. Camping near picturesque lakes is another passion of mine.  

I thrive on connecting with new people and experiencing the world around me, which is why I transitioned from a successful career managing a team of over 30 individuals at Wal-Mart to pursue my true calling in real estate. My journey to becoming a Real Estate Agent has been shaped by a strong foundation of diverse experiences. With over 11 years of leadership and financial management expertise gained at Wal-Mart, I honed my skills in understanding and connecting with people from all walks of life. As a registered Investments Broker (FINRA Registered IAR) through PFS Investments, and armed with a CA Dept. Of Insurance Life License, I have proven my commitment to professional development by passing rigorous exams, including the SIE exam, Series 6 and Series 63 exams, and the California Real Estate Exam.  

From achieving the position of store manager at U-Haul before the age of 22 to pursuing my bachelor's degree in Business Administration with a focus on Taxes, I have consistently pushed myself to exceed expectations. My passion for real estate not only fulfills a lifelong aspiration but also allows me to spend invaluable quality time with my family while positively impacting the lives of others. I am confident that my dedication, extensive knowledge, and strong interpersonal skills will guide you towards finding the perfect home in Coachella Valley. Let's embark on this exciting journey together and make your real estate dreams a reality!
