Cons

MLS Listing Discrepancy: Bedroom count discrepancy between mls listing and other public or private record. mls listing bedroom count = 4, other record bedroom count = 5.
High Association Fees: The property is subject to a significant monthly association fee of $545.0, which adds a substantial recurring cost to homeownership.
Potential for High Maintenance Costs: The extensive resort-style backyard with an infinity pool, multiple amenities, and large lot size suggests potentially high ongoing maintenance expenses for landscaping, pool service, and system upkeep.
Lack of Explicit Indoor Cooling System Mention: While outdoor misting systems are highlighted, the description does not explicitly mention an indoor central air conditioning system, which could be a concern for comfort during the hot desert months in La Quinta.
