Bill Arnold
Sales Associate

Growing up in a small town in Southern California with my parents and two sisters, I was taught at a very young age about honesty, integrity and treating people like you would like to be treated. Along with the above attributes, my parents instilled in me a very strong work ethic.
I have carried these attributes all through my life, as a youth playing organized team sports, as well as individual sports, and into my adult life.
I have had the opportunity and enjoyment to have worked in sales/sales management for major corporations for over forty years. One of the first and most important lesson I learned after getting into sales: in order to be successful you must listen to your clients. Understand their wants and needs and always strive to meet their requirements.
I have now applied all of these attributes plus my sales experience to my real estate career.
Along with my wife of forty nine years, Judie, we currently live year round in Rancho Mirage, CA.
