Everything To Know About Selling The OC
Luxury real estate, here we come.
If you weren’t already sold on the idea of another Selling Sunset spin-off, the first official teaser trailer for Selling The OC is sure to do the trick. Following on from the success of the original series, the Netflix franchise has branched out to Orange County in Southern California to follow a new group of fabulous real estate agents working for The Oppenheim Group. In fact, the show takes place in the Newport Beach office, so avid fans of The O.C. may well recognise a few spots that appear on the show.
Unlike the recent spin-off Selling Tampa, real estate moguls Brett and Jason Oppenheim will feature in this series as they oversee the expansion of their successful empire. Much like its predecessor, Selling The OC is set to deliver serious glamour in the form of waterfront beachfront mansions with eye-wateringly high prices, while fans will also get complete access to all the drama going on behind-the-scenes, as well.
It turns out the new brokerage has both male and female agents working together and, as you can imagine, it means desirable mansions aren’t the only things they all end up fighting over. Here’s everything to know about Selling The OC, and how you can follow The Oppenheim Group’s newest agents on Instagram.
Selling The OC: Release Date
While announcing its upcoming slate of real estate and home renovation shows on June 23, Netflix revealed Selling The OC will premiere on August 24. The first season will have eight 30-minute episodes.

The official trailer teases we can expect plenty of office gossip, extravagant parties, and outfits to rival Christine Quinn herself. Plus, a few multimillion-dollar estate deals and, wait for it, an apparent secret affair. We need this on our screens sooner rather than later.
Selling The OC: Meet The Agents
At the end of Selling Sunset season four, Jason Oppenheim announced that they would establish a fresh team with a “whole new dynamic” and they did not disappoint. Here are the glamorous new agents competing to establish themselves in the real estate business.
Alex Hall
According to her bio on The Oppenheim site, Alex is one of the most in-demand realtors in Orange County. She has a background in interior design and a history of selling homes at record prices, thanks to over 15 years of expertise in the field. Based on Alex Hall’s Instagram, she is currently in a relationship with fellow agent Sean Palmieri.
Alexandra Jarvis
As an Alabama native, Alexandra is all about southern hospitality and charm when it comes to her approach to selling. Having previously worked as a lawyer, she parlayed her legal career into a real estate career, combining both her legal acumen and personality to close nearly $40 million in sales during her first year. The agent is engaged to Sergio Ducoulombier and her Alexandra Jarvis Instagram reveals she’s great friends with fellow Selling Sunset star Chelsea Lazkani.
Alexandra Rose
Alexandra Rose uses her background in sales and client service to ensure her clients are getting the very best, and judging by the number of Alexandra Rose Instagram posts she shares about big money sales, it seems her method works. From the look of things, she’s currently single, but the new reality starlet may just be keeping her love life private for now.
Austin Victoria
Austin is no stranger to the real estate market having worked at Douglas Elliman and Open Air Real Estate in Los Angeles. Similar to Chrishell Stause and Vanessa Villela, he was previously in the entertainment business, working as an actor and model. When he’s not making deals, Austin spends time with his wife, fashion designer Lisa Victoria, and posts sweet snaps of their adorable pair of twin daughters, Lila and Hazel, on his Austin Victoria Instagram profile.
