The Irvine market
What it takes to sell well in Irvine
Irvine is Orange County's master-planned powerhouse: village by village, from Woodbridge's lakes to brand-new Great Park neighborhoods, anchored by top-rated Irvine Unified schools, UC Irvine, and the Spectrum job core. Recent sales have run around $1.55 to $1.6 million citywide, up roughly 8 percent year over year, with well-priced homes closing in about 40 days. Detached homes in the established villages and the newer view collections push far higher, which is exactly where a percentage commission quietly becomes a six-figure bill.

Considering a traditional commission-based agent?
Ask these five questions before you sign a 3% listing agreement
What exactly am I getting for 3%?
Do you pay for inspections and deep cleaning before the home goes on the market?
Do you include drone photography, Matterport / 3D tours, and floor-plan-style buyer tools?
Will you show me how your percentage fee nets me more than Arrivva's fixed-fee full service?
Will you agree not to also represent the buyer?
“I was skeptical when I hired Arrivva to sell my house, even though they came highly recommended. It just seemed too good to be true. They would do all the work, are incredibly competent, and charged significantly less than everyone else, but they delivered. This amazing tag team was on it, great communication, driven to not only sell the house but get us the best possible deal they could.”
